7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Avoid prolonged exposure. Should be handled in closed systems, if possible.
Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid release to
the environment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices.
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Store locked up. Store in original tightly closed container. Store away from incompatible materials
(see Section 10 of the SDS).

Appropriate engineering
controls
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended.
Skin protection
Hand protection
For prolonged or repeated skin contact use suitable protective gloves.
Other
Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory protection
In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Thermal hazards
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
General hygiene
considerations
Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material
and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective
equipment to remove contaminants.
