5 KG BAG - AAN/5

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Prenco offers a better way to deal with Acid spills....

Absorb AND Neutralise the spill for a more effective and safer response

Safety Note: Please advise Prenco on the type of Acid being used prior to ordering, so we can advise on the best type of solution for the situation 
 
ACIDSORB - Econo for LOW CONCENTRATION Acids below 50% (e.g. battery acid) 

Acid-Sorb is supplied in a 5 kg bag or 5 litre jug and has been designed to contain, absorb and neutralize acid spills.

It can be used on various types of low concentration acid spills such as Battery Acid. (check first with Prenco as to any restrictions) Acid-Sorb is effective in absorbing the acid spill which then reduces the emission of toxic fumes. Acid-Sorb contains neutralizing agents that will partially, or in many cases, totally neutralize the acid, making it much safer to handle and dispose.

PRODUCT APPLICATION:
Apply around the edge of the spill fluid and sweep over immediately with a broom. Spill mixture will "fizz" for a period as partial neutralisation takes place. Check pH and add more absorbent or spray with water until completely neutral. Full ACIDSORB instructions for use and MSDS supplied with each order.

LSL Acid Neutraliser & Solidifying Absorbent

"Instantly neutralise and absorb most acids"


ph Colour Change


Dry Scoop-able gel

PRODUCT CODES

300ml Bottle - LSLAN-300
500ml Shaker - LSLAN-500
5.5 ltr Jug - LSLAN-55L
10 litrePail - LSLAN-10L

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
LSL ACID NEUTRALISER
is a unique blend of Na2 Co3 and  all  purpose super polymer absorbent which instantly neutralizes and absorbs most acids ( Not for use with hydrofluoric acid. For hydrofluoric try our Uni-Safe Binder)

ACID SPILLS
Acid spills are hazardous due to their corrosive effects to eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Prolonged exposure can cause life threatening injury. When acids combine with other chemicals the reaction products can be highly toxic.
Liquid Spill Lock Acid Neutraliser reacts immediately with spilled acids to effectively neutralise and immobilise the liquid for safe handling and disposal.

LSL Acid Neutraliser is a fast acting, flowable, powder formulated to safely neutralise and solidify spills of most common acids. It reduces the potential hazard by providing safe and effective handling after neutralisation, resulting in complete non-hazardous clean-up and easy disposal. Liquid Spill Lock has its own built in colour indicator to show the neutralising process as the acid turns from a light purple to a dark purple at full neutralisation.
Suitable for disposal in landfills when total neutral ph is obtained.

Features
  • Ideal solution for small volume acid spills
  • Safely deal with spilled aggressive liquids by neutralising and solidifying, instead of just absorbing
  • pH indicator. The solidified reaction products will be primarily LIGHT PURPLE in the foaming neutralisation and then DARK PURPLE when neutralisation takes place and the spill turns into a granular gel.
  • Immediately stops the spread of corrosive acids
  • Can help stop acid spills before they migrate under valuable equipment or run down drains
  • Single process for making spilled acids non-hazardous, easy to clean-up and safe for disposal
  • Reduces hazardous vapours and fumes
  • Minimises waste for disposal. Produces a non-hazardous clean, dry powder that can be swept-up.

PRODUCT APPLICATION:
Battery Shops/Manufacturers, Manufacturing Facilities, Chemical Companies, Storage Warehouse, Transport and Shipping, Schools, Universities, Research Units, Laboratories, Pharmacies and Clinics, Hospitals and Medical Labs, First Aid Sites, Emergency Response Units (Police, Fire Departments, Ambulance Officers and other Hazmat responders), Printed Circuit Board Manufacturers, Motor Garages, Vehicle Wrecking Yards, Anodizing and Plating Plants.

LSL Caustic (Alkali) Neutraliser

"Instantly neutralise and absorb most caustics"


ph colour change


Dry scoop-able gel


PRODUCT CODES

500ml Shaker - LSLCN-500
5.5 ltr Jug - LSLCN-55L
10 litrePail - LSLCN-10L


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
LSL BASE NEUTRALISER
is a unique blend of Citric Acid &  all  purpose super polymer absorbent which instantly neutralizes and absorbs most bases ( refer to MSDS sheet below for Incompatibles)

CAUSTIC SPILLS
Most caustics are corrosive to organic tissues and can result in severe skin and eye irritation or burns from direct contact. Caustic vapours may be corrosive to the respiratory system. Prolonged exposure can cause life threatening injury. Alkalis can inflict irreversible damage to eyes if eye contact occurs. When caustics combine with other chemicals the reaction products can be highly toxic. LSL reacts with spilled alkaline solutions to effectively neutralise and solidify (for most alkalis) the liquid for safe handling and disposal.

LSL Base Neutraliser is a fast acting, flowable, powder formulated to safely neutralise and solidify spills of most common bases. It reduces the potential hazard by providing safe and effective handling after neutralisation, resulting in complete non-hazardous clean-up and easy disposal. Liquid Spill Lock has its own built in colour indicator to show the neutralising process as the base turns from a light orange to a bright orange at full neutralisation.
Suitable for disposal in landfills when total neutral ph is obtained.

Features
  • Ideal solution for small volume acid spills
  • Safely deal with spilled aggressive liquids by neutralising and solidifying, instead of just absorbing
  • pH indicator. The solidified reaction products will be primarily LIGHT ORANGE in the foaming neutralisation and then DARK ORANGE when neutralisation takes place and the spill turns into a granular gel.
  • Immediately stops the spread of corrosive acids
  • Can help stop acid spills before they migrate under valuable equipment or run down drains
  • Single process for making spilled acids non-hazardous, easy to clean-up and safe for disposal
