Section 7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Protective measures :
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8).
Persons with a history of skin sensitization problems should not be
employed in any process in which this product is used. Do not get in
eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not ingest. Keep in the original
container or an approved alternative made from a compatible material,
kept tightly closed when not in use. Empty containers retain product
residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.
Advice on general occupational
hygiene
:
Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this
material is handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands
and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated
clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. See
also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures.
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
:
Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container
protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area,
away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and
drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use.
Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept
upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use
appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.

Occupational exposure limits
Ingredient name Exposure limits
Acetic acid, 2-(2,4-
dichlorophenoxy)-

Appropriate engineering controls :
Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker
exposure to airborne contaminants.
Environmental exposure controls :
Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be
checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of
environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers,
filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be
necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
