7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling: Keep out of reach of children. Keep away from heat, sparks and ame. Containers,
even those that have been emptied, can contain vapors. Do not cut, drill, grind, weld, or perform similar operations on or
near empty containers. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Do not swallow. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Keep container closed. Use with adequate ventilation. See Section 8, EXPOSURE CON-
TROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION.
Conditions for safe storage: Store in a dry place. Store in original container. Keep container tightly closed when not in
use. Do not store near food, foodstuffs, drugs or potable water supplies.

RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE FOR MANUFACTURING, COMMERCIAL BLENDING AND PACKAG-
ING WORKERS. APPLICATORS AND HANDLERS SHOULD SEE THE PRODUCT LABEL FOR PROPER PERSONAL
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND CLOTHING.
Exposure controls
Engineering controls: Use engineering controls to maintain airborne level below exposure limit requirements or guide-
lines. If there are no applicable exposure limit requirements or guidelines, use only with adequate ventilation. Local
exhaust ventilation may be necessary for some operations.
Individual protection measures
Eye/face protection: Use chemical goggles.
Skin protection
Hand protection: Use gloves chemically resistant to this material. Examples of preferred glove barrier
materials include: Chlorinated polyethylene. Neoprene. Nitrile/butadiene rubber (“nitrile” or “NBR”).
Polyethylene. Ethyl vinyl alcohol laminate (“EVAL”). Viton. Examples of acceptable glove barrier
materials include: Butyl rubber. Natural rubber (“latex”). Polyvinyl chloride (“PVC” or “vinyl”).
NOTICE: The selection of a specic glove for a particular application and duration of use
in a workplace should also take into account all relevant workplace factors such as, but not limited to:
Other chemicals which may be handled, physical requirements (cut/puncture protection, dexterity,
thermal protection), potential body reactions to glove materials, as well as the instructions/specications
provided by the glove supplier.
Other protection: Use protective clothing chemically resistant to this material. Selection of spe
cic items such as face shield, boots, apron, or full body suit will depend on the task.
Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection should be worn when there is a potential to exceed the exposure
limit requirements or guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure limit requirements or guidelines,
wear respiratory protection when adverse effects, such as respiratory irritation or discomfort have
been experienced, or where indicated by your risk assessment process. In misty atmospheres, use an approved
particulate respirator.
The following should be effective types of air-purifying respirators: Organic vapor cartridge with a particulate pre-lter.
