Section VII 鈥? Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Contain the spill to prevent a large discharge to
surface streams or storm sewers. Vacuum or use wet clean-up techniques and place recovered product in a closable container.
Waste Disposal Method: Disposal must be made in accordance with federal, state, and local regulation.
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storing: Local exhaust. Do not freeze. Avoid unnecessary skin
contact. Do not breathe fumes.
Other Precautions: Eye wash fountains should be easily accessible. As with all chemicals, keep out of the reach of
children.
Section VIII - Control Measures
Respiratory: If excessive dust is present, wear NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator. Observe OSHA Permissible Exposure
limits for nuisance dust.
Ventilation: Local exhaust or containment.
Clothing: Gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to prevent skin contact as needed.
Eye: Safety glasses are recommended.
Other: Open wounds or skin surface disruptions should be covered with a chemical resistant patch to minimize
absorption risks. Clean clothing should be worn daily to avoid possible long-term build up of the product leading to chronic
overexposure.
