Precautions for safe handling
DANGER -- CORROSIVE
Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Use good industrial hygiene practices in
handling this material. When using do not eat or drink.
Store locked up. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Store away from incompatible
materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep out of reach of children. Store in a corrosion resistant
container with a resistant inner liner.

Exposure guidelines
Appropriate engineering
controls
No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
See above
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.
