MSDS
Storage: Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame.
Do not store above 120 ° F. Store large quantities in buildings designed and protected for storage of
NFPA Class I flammable liquids. Contents under pressure. Do not expose to heat or store above 120 ° F.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-ventilation.
Respiratory Protection: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2
requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. A
NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be
permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure
limits.
Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if
there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or in any other
circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
Skin Protection: Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin protection. Use impervious gloves to
prevent skin contact and absorption of this material through the skin.
Eye Protection: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
Other protective equipment: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further information
regarding personal protective equipment and its application.
Hygienic Practices: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking.
