7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling

Advice on safe handling – Do not breathe vapours or spray mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Persons with a history of skin sensitisation problems or asthma, allergies, chronic or recurrent respiratory disease should not be employed in any process in which this mixture is being used. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Follow standard hygiene measures when handling chemical products

Advice on protection against

fire and explosion – Normal measures for preventive fire protection.

Hygiene measures – Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. When using do not eat or drink. When using do not smoke. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.

Requirements for storage areas and containers – Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Store in accordance with local regulations.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Control parameters

Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection – Safety glasses with side-shields, Eye wash bottle with pure water

Hand protection – Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard must be worn at all times when handling chemical products. Suitable for short time use or protection against splashes: Butyl rubber/nitrile rubber gloves (0,4 mm), Contaminated gloves should be removed. Suitable for permanent exposure: Viton gloves (0.4 mm), breakthrough time >30 min.

Skin and body protection – Protective clothing (e.g. Safety shoes, long-sleeved working clothing, long trousers). Rubber aprons and protective boots are additionally recommended for mixing and stirring work.

Respiratory protection – 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. organic vapor filter (Type A) A1: < 1000 ppm; A2: < 5000 ppm; A3: < 10000 ppm Ensure adequate ventilation. This can be achieved by local exhaust extraction or by general ventilation. This applies in particular to the mixing / stirring area. In case this is not sufficient to keep the concentrations under the occupational exposure limits then respiration protection measures must be used.
