in a designated, labeled waste container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal
contractor.
See Section 1 for emergency contact information.
See Section 8 for information on appropriate personal protective equipment.
See section 13 for waste disposal information.
:
:
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Put on appropriate personal
protective equipment.
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).

7. Handling and storage
Conditions for safe storage,
including any
incompatibilities
Store between the following temperatures: 20 to 25°C (68 to 77°F). Store in
accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct
sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see
Section 10) and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for
use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to
prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to
avoid environmental contamination.
:
Protective measures
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8).
:
Precautions for safe handling
Not applicable.
8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Hand protection
None required. However, use of adequate ventilation is good industrial practice.
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be
worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary.
If operating conditions cause high dust concentrations to be produced, use dust goggles.
Eye/face protection
Respiratory protection
:
:
:
Body protection
Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being
performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before
handling this product.
:
Environmental exposure
controls
:
Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment
will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
Appropriate engineering
controls
:
Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to airborne
contaminants.
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
Hygiene measures
:
Control
Individual protection measures
Occupational exposure limits
Skin protection
Other skin protection
:
Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected
based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a
specialist before handling this product.
