Description

Chemical Absorbent Pads Active

The Chemical Absorbent Pads Active are manufactured from a base of highly absorbent meltblown polypropylene. The meltblown fibres are then ultrasonically bonded creating a dimpled surface. This bonding creates a reduced linting product with improved tensile strength. 

May be safely used with all aqueous solutions and liquids immiscible with water, such as corrosive chemicals, hazardous liquids, acids, hydrocarbons, solvents with the exception of strong oxidising agents.

Before any use in a spill situation a proper risk assessment should be carried out and all hazardous properties of the liquid or dangerous reactions taken into account.

Our Active Chemical Absorbent Pads are 100% meltblown polypropylene and are hydrophilic meaning they will rapidly absorb chemical liquid spills.

Our Chemical Absorbent Pads are colour coded to the BSIF Standards for easy recognition, distinction and visibility.

Benefits

• Manufactured from 100% meltblown polypropylene
• Ultrasonically bonded to reduce linting and improve tensile strength
• Excellent absorbency and fluid retention
• Can be incinerated, keeping disposal costs down
• Highly visible due to their distinctive colour
• Have high strength, even when saturated.

Application

• Around acid baths, chemical reactors and process plants
• Pads for wiping down surfaces
• In laboratories to clean up and collect spills
• Chemical storage areas
• As part of your spill response plan
