Absorbent sand 65# bucket of imbiber beads P2 spill kit


This is for a barrel of 65# of Imbiber Beads mixed with sand for organic spill control. This would be a critical part of any spill kit, shop or can be used in any number of uses where a true absorbent is needed.
I believe that the following ad text applies to this item:
IMBIBER BEADS® are the only true aBsorbent (ASTM F716) “engineered” for organic chemicals such as gasoline, diesel/jet fuels, chlorinated solvents including TCE and PCBs as well as polar compounds MEK and MIBK, in the marketplace today. Once a compatible chemical is imbibed (ABsorb and imbibe are synonymous) the Imbiber Beads®, as opposed to ADsorbents,will swell up to 3 times their original diameter with the compatible chemical (up to 27 volumes of solvent for each volume of the Beads). NO liquid can be released as a result of compression, gravitational pull, inclement weather or even if the Imbiber Beads® were to be cut in half. Conversely, with aDsorbents (example: plastic foams/fibers, peat, sand, porous clay – ASTM F726) any one of them will release aDsorbed liquids exposing both the environment and personnel to liquid contamination and to even more dangerous vapors. In these cases the liquid taken up is simply distributed over the surface (external or internal) of the aDsorbing material.
The Imbiber Beads® are NOT a thickener or a solidifier – they will NOT dissolve in excess liquid - water can NOT be absorbed by the Beads as they are hydrophobic.
IMBIBER BEADS® Spill Response Products (Booms, Blankets, Pillows and Packets) are available for capturing and containing compatible organic chemical releases.
The use of Imbiber Beads® Products addresses many issues regarding SPCC compliance.
