For non-emergency personnel :
No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without
suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and
unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk through
spilled material. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Provide adequate
ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is
inadequate. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment.
For emergency responders :
If specialised clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of
any information in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. See
also the information in "For non-emergency personnel".
Environmental precautions :
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil,
waterways, drains and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the
product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil
or air).
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Spill :
Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach
release from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses,
basements or confined areas. Wash spillages into an effluent treatment
plant or proceed as follows. Contain and collect spillage with non-
combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or
diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to
local regulations (see Section 13). Dispose of via a licensed waste
disposal contractor. Contaminated absorbent material may pose the
same hazard as the spilled product. Note: see Section 1 for emergency
contact information and Section 13 for waste disposal.
Section 7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Protective measures :
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Do
not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid
breathing vapor or mist. 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.
Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Control parameters
Occupational exposure limits
None.
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.
Individual protection measures
Hygiene measures :
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical
products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end
of the working period. Appropriate techniques should be used to
remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated
clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
Eye/face protection :
Protective eyewear is not required, but may be used in situations were
contact is expected.
Skin protection
Hand protection :
Wear protective gloves.
Body protection :
No special protective clothing is required.
Other skin protection :
Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures
should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks
involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this
product.
Respiratory protection :
Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying
with an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated
exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits
of the selected respirator.
