sand or other suitable material and dispose of properly.

Additional Advice

: Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages

cannot be contained.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

General Precautions

: Use local exhaust ventilation if there is risk of inhalation of

vapours, mists or aerosols. Use the information in this data

sheet as input to a risk assessment of local circumstances to

help determine appropriate controls for safe handling, storage

and disposal of this material.

Handling

: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid inhaling

vapour and/or mists. When handling product in drums, safety

footwear should be worn and proper handling equipment

should be used. Properly dispose of any contaminated rags or

cleaning materials in order to prevent fires.

Storage

: Keep container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated

place. Use properly labelled and closeable containers. Store at

ambient temperature.

Product Transfer

: This material has the potential to be a static accumulator.

Proper grounding and bonding procedures should be used

during all bulk transfer operations.

Recommended Materials

: For containers or container linings, use mild steel or high

density polyethylene.

Unsuitable Materials

: PVC.

Additional Information

: Polyethylene containers should not be exposed to high

temperatures because of possible risk of distortion.

Exposure Controls

: The level of protection and types of controls necessary will vary

depending upon potential exposure conditions. Select controls

based on a risk assessment of local circumstances.

Appropriate measures include: Adequate ventilation to control

airborne concentrations. Where material is heated, sprayed or

mist formed, there is greater potential for airborne

concentrations to be generated.

Define procedures for safe handling and maintenance of

controls. Educate and train workers in the hazards and control

measures relevant to normal activities associated with this

product. Ensure appropriate selection, testing and

maintenance of equipment used to control exposure, e.g.

personal protective equipment, local exhaust ventilation. Drain

down system prior to equipment break-in or maintenance.

Retain drain downs in sealed storage pending disposal or for

subsequent recycle. Always observe good personal hygiene

measures, such as washing hands after handling the material

and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash

work clothing and protective equipment to remove

contaminants. Discard contaminated clothing and footwear that

cannot be cleaned. Practice good housekeeping.

Personal Protective

Equipment

: Personal protective equipment (PPE) should meet

recommended national standards. Check with PPE suppliers.

Respiratory Protection

: No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under normal

conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene

practices, precautions should be taken to avoid breathing of

material. If engineering controls do not maintain airborne

concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker

health, select respiratory protection equipment suitable for the

specific conditions of use and meeting relevant legislation.

Check with respiratory protective equipment suppliers. Where

air-filtering respirators are suitable, select an appropriate

combination of mask and filter. Select a filter suitable for

combined particulate/organic gases and vapours [boiling point

>65°C(149 °F)].

Hand Protection

: Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of

gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374,

US: F739) made from the following materials may provide

suitable chemical protection: PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber

gloves. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on

usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical

resistance of glove material, dexterity. Always seek advice

from glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced.

Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.

Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves,

hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a

non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended.

For continuous contact we recommend gloves with

breakthrough time of more than 240 minutes with preference

for > 480 minutes where suitable gloves can be identified. For

short-term/splash protection we recommend the same, but

recognise that suitable gloves offering this level of protection

may not be available and in this case a lower breakthrough

time may be acceptable so long as appropriate maintenance

and replacement regimes are followed. Glove thickness is not

a good predictor of glove resistance to a chemical as it is

dependent on the exact composition of the glove material.

Glove thickness should be typically greater than 0.35 mm

depending on the glove make and model.

Eye Protection

: Wear safety glasses or full face shield if splashes are likely to

occur.

Protective Clothing

: Skin protection not ordinarily required beyond standard issue

work clothes.

Monitoring Methods

: Monitoring of the concentration of substances in the breathing

zone of workers or in the general workplace may be required to

confirm compliance with an OEL and adequacy of exposure

controls. For some substances biological monitoring may also

be appropriate. Validated exposure measurement methods

should be applied by a competent person and samples

analysed by an accredited laboratory. Examples of sources of

recommended exposure measurement methods are given

below or contact the supplier. Further national methods may be

available.

Environmental Exposure

Controls

: Take appropriate measures to fulfil the requirements of

relevant environmental protection legislation. Avoid

contamination of the environment by following advice given in

Chapter 6. If necessary, prevent undissolved material from

being discharged to waste water. Waste water should be

treated in a municipal or industrial waste water treatment plant

before discharge to surface water. Local guidelines on

emission limits for volatile substances must be observed for the

discharge of exhaust air containing vapour.
