local regulations. Dispose of via a
licensed
waste disposal
contractor.
NOTE: If RQ (Reportable Quantity) is exceeded or if spills enter a body of water, report immediately to the USEPA’s National
Response Center at (800) 424-8802. Check with your local and state regulators regarding their reporting requirements.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling
Protective measures: Eye protection and face shield should be used if material is used under conditions that
increase the chances of splattering. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment
(see Section 8). Keep out of reach of children.
Advice on general
occupational hygiene: Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Eating, drinking and smoking should be
prohibited in areas where this material
is
handled, stored and processed. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Remove
contaminated
clothing and protective equipment
before entering eating areas.
See also Section 8
for
additional information on hygiene
measures.
Conditions for safe storage,
Including any incompatibilities: 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,
strong oxidizing agents
(see Section 10) and food and drink. Keep away from heat,
sparks, flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static
electricity). 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. Use
appropriate
containment
to avoid environmental
contamination. Avoid contaminating
soil or releases into sewage or drainage systems and bodies of water.
Bulk material handling:
Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition
when handling this material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be
necessary but may not, by themselves, be sufficient.

Appropriate engineering controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to airborne
contaminants. Emergency shower and eyewash station.
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.
Individual protection measures
Hygiene measures: 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.
Eye/Face Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields. A face shield may be necessary under
some conditions.
