Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Chemicals spilled on porous surfaces may be removed therefrom by applying to the spill site a poultice in the form of a slurry or paste of finely divided particulate material dispersed in a volatile solvent in which the spilled chemical substance is soluble, allowing the solvent to be absorbed into the porous substrate. The poultice is then allowed to dry thereby effecting a wicking action causing extraction of the chemical substance from the substrate into the poultice.
