7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices. These practices include
avoiding unnecessary exposure and removal of material from eyes, skin, and clothing.

Engineering measures

Provide natural or mechanical ventilation to control exposure levels below airborne exposure
limits (see below). The use of local mechanical exhaust ventilation is preferred at sources of air
contamination such as open process equipment.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place to maintain product quality.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Occupational Exposure Limit

ACGIH TLV 10 mg/m3 (inhalable) 8-hr TWA, 3 mg/m3 (respirable) 8-hr TWA
OSHA PEL 15 mg/m3 (total dust) 8-hr TWA, 5 mg/m3 (respirable) 8-hr TWA

OSHA and ACGIH have not established specific exposure limits for this material. However,
OSHA and ACGIH have established limits for particulates not otherwise classified (PNOC) which
are the least stringent exposure limits applicable to dusts.

Components referred to herein may be regulated by specific Canadian provincial legislation.
Please refer to exposure limits legislated for the province in which the substance will be used.

Respiratory protection

Avoid breathing dust. Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection equipment when
airborne exposure is excessive. Consult the respirator manufacturer to determine appropriate
type equipment for a given application. Observe respirator use limitations specified by
NIOSH/MSHA or the manufacturer. Respiratory protection programs must comply with 29 C.F.R.
1910.134 or European Standard EN 149.
