Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Spill Clean up Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). For large spills dike spilled material or
otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway. Absorb with an inert material and put the
spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated
surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Handling Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing vapors or spray
mists. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.
Storage Avoid all possible sources of ignition (spark or flame). Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for
use. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Store between 40掳F - 120掳F.
Section 8. Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
Engineering Controls Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors
below their respective occupational exposure limits. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers
are proximal to the work-station location.
Personal Protection Protective Clothing (Pictograms)
Eyes Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
Recommended: Splash goggles.
Hands and Body For prolonged or repeated handling, use Neoprene gloves. Nitrile
gloves. Rubber gloves.
Respiratory Avoid breathing vapors or spray mists. Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne
concentrations of vapors below their respective occupational exposure limits.
