Engineering Controls: Ensure adequate ventilation (same as outdoors) when using.
If handling industrial quantities, or if dust risk exists,
consider local mechanical exhaust/extraction to keep
airborne contamination within regulatory limits.
Personal Protection: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing dusts.
Personal protection to be selected from those recommended
below, as appropriate to mode of use, quantity handled and
degree of hazard:
Equipment
Normal Use: Eye/face protection. Gloves - rubber or plastic.
Industrial Quantities: Dust mask. Face shield or safety glasses. Gloves - rubber or
plastic. Impervious overalls. Refer For help in selecting
suitable equipment, consult AS 2161. Consult AS1336 and

7. Handling and Storage
Storage temperature: Store below 25C (air conditioning) in a cool dry place
Do not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed
container.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Keep refrigerated. (Store below
4掳C/39掳F.) Store protected from moisture.
