| SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
PRECAUTIONS:
KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT. KEEP AWAY FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION. EMPTY
CONTAINERS POSE A FIRE RISK, EVAPORATE THE RESIDUE UNDER A FUME HOOD.
GROUND ALL EQUIPMENT CONTAINING MATERIAL. DO NOT INGEST. DO NOT
BREATHE GAS/FUMES/ VAPOR/SPRAY. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES. WEAR SUITABLE
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. IN CASE OF INSUFFICIENT VENTILATION, WEAR SUITABLE
RESPIRATORY EQUIPMENT. IF INGESTED, SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY AND
SHOW THE CONTAINER OR THE LABEL. KEEP AWAY FROM INCOMPATIBLES SUCH AS
OXIDIZING AGENTS, REDUCING AGENTS.
STORAGE:
KEEP CONTAINER TIGHTLY CLOSED. KEEP CONTAINER IN A COOL, WELL-VENTILATED
AREA. IT MAY BE LIGHT AND AIR SENSITIVE
| SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION | |
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
PROVIDE EXHAUST VENTILATION OR OTHER ENGINEERING CONTROLS TO KEEP THE
AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPORS BELOW THEIR RESPECTIVE THRESHOLD LIMIT
VALUE. ENSURE THAT EYEWASH STATIONS AND SAFETY SHOWERS ARE PROXIMAL TO
THE WORK-STATION LOCATION.
PERSONAL PROTECTION:
SPLASH GOGGLES OR SAFETY GLASSES. SYNTHETIC APRON. GLOVES (IMPERVIOUS).
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION IS NOT NECESSARY FOR NORMAL HANDLING. GOOD ROOM
VENTILATION OR USE OF LOCAL EXHAUST (FUME HOOD) IS SUFFICIENT. USE A
VAPOR RESPIRATOR UNDER CONDITIONS WHERE EXPOSURE TO THE SUBSTANCE IS
APPARENT (E.G. GENERATION OF HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF MIST OR VAPOR,
INADEQUATE VENTILATION, DEVELOPMENT OF RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION),
AND ENGINEERING CONTROLS ARE NOT FEASIBLE. BE SURE TO USE AN
APPROVED/CERTIFIED RESPIRATOR OR EQUIVALENT.
PERSONAL PROTECTION IN CASE OF A LARGE SPILL:
SPLASH GOGGLES. FULL SUIT. VAPOR RESPIRATOR. BOOTS. GLOVES. A SELF
CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS SHOULD BE USED TO AVOID INHALATION OF THE
PRODUCT. SUGGESTED PROTECTIVE CLOTHING MIGHT NOT BE SUFFICIENT; CONSULT
A SPECIALIST BEFORE HANDLING THIS PRODUCT.
