SECTION 7
HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING
Avoid contact with used product. Prevent small spills and leakage to avoid slip hazard. Material can
accumulate static charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). When the material is handled
in bulk, an electrical spark could ignite any flammable vapors from liquids or residues that may be present (e.g.,
during switch-loading operations). Use proper bonding and/or ground procedures. However, bonding and
grounds may not eliminate the hazard from static accumulation. Consult local applicable standards for
guidance. Additional references include American Petroleum Institute 2003 (Protection Against Ignitions
Arising out of Static, Lightning and Stray Currents) or National Fire Protection Agency 77 (Recommended
Practice on Static Electricity) or CENELEC CLC/TR 50404 (Electrostatics - Code of practice for the avoidance
of hazards due to static electricity).
Static Accumulator: This material is a static accumulator.
STORAGE
The container choice, for example storage vessel, may effect static accumulation and dissipation. Do not store
in open or unlabelled containers. Keep away from incompatible materials.
