7. Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid inhalation of dusts/mists/vapours. Ensure adequate ventilation. Provide suitable exhaust
ventilation at the drying process and in the area surrounding the melt outlet of processing machines.
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Take precautionary measures against static
discharges. Avoid the formation and deposition of dust.
Protection against fire and explosion:
The product is not an oxidizer, not self-combustible and not explosive. Avoid dust formation. Dust in
sufficient concentration can result in an explosive mixture in air. Handle to minimize dusting and
eliminate open flame and other sources of ignition.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Storage stability:
Protect against moisture.

Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection:
Breathing protection if breathable aerosols/dust are formed. Wear respiratory protection if ventilation
is inadequate. Particle filter with medium efficiency for solid and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149,
Type P2 or FFP2)
Hand protection:
Use additional heat protection gloves when handling hot molten masses (EN 407), e.g. of textile or
leather.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Body protection:
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting
boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case
of dust).
General safety and hygiene measures
Wear protective clothing to prevent contact during mechanical processing and/or hot melt conditions.
Store work clothing separately. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of
the shift.
