SECTION VIII: PREVENTATIVE MEASURES
Personal protective equipment:
Respiratory protection: In absence of proper ventilation, recommend approved respirator with organic vapour cartridges.
Protective gloves: Viton or rubber recommended.
Eye protection: Suggest chemical goggles or face-shield be worn when handling.
Other protective equipment: Suggest rubber apron. Ensure eye wash station and safety shower are available.
Specific engineering controls: Use in well ventilated area. Use local exhaust ventilation, process enclosure or other engineering
controls to maintain airborne levels below TLV.
Procedures for leak/spills: Use appropriate protective equipment. Dike to contain spill and to prevent water pollution. Recover
diked material by vacuum. Soak up small spills with absorbent material. Collect contaminated material and absorbents in
approved containers for disposal. Flush area with water.
Waste disposal: Dispose in accordance with all federal, provincial, and local regulations. It is the responsibility of the end-user
to determine if material meets the criteria of hazardous waste at the time of disposal. Empty containers must be disposed or, or
recycled, in accordance with local regulations.
Handling procedures and equipment: Avoid ingestion. Practice reasonable caution and personal cleanliness. Avoid skin and
eye contact. Wash thoroughly after handling. Clean contaminated clothing and footwear before reuse. Avoid breathing mists
and vapors.
Storage requirements: Store in a cool area separate from incompatible materials. Store unused material in original container.
Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Handle only in area free of ignition sources. Ground containers when transferring
material. Empty containers, which have not been cleaned and purged, contain residual hazardous material and should be handled
and stored as if full.
