SDS
detergent/soap solutions or another biodegrable cleaner. Silicone fluids are slippery; spills are a safety hazard. Apply sand or other inert
granular material to improve traction.
Furthur information: Exhaust vapors. Elimate all sources of ignition. Consider explosion protection. Observe notes under section 7.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
General information: Always stir well before use.
Handling
Precautions for safe handling: Ensure adequate ventilation Must be syphoned off in situ. Avoid Formation of aerosols. In case of aerosol
formation special protective measures are required (exhausting by suction, respiratory protection). Spilled substance increase risk of
slipping. Keep away from incomplete substances in accordance with section 10. Observe information in section 8.
Preacations against fire and explosion: Product may release ethanol. Flammabe vapors may accumulate and form explosive mixtures
with air in containers, process vessels, including partial, empty and uncleaned containers and vessels, or other enclosed spaces. Keep
away from sources of ignition and do not smoke. Take precautionary measures against electrostatic charging. Cool endangered
containers with water.
Storage
Conditions for storage rooms and vessels: Protect against frost. Observe local/state/federal regulations.
Advice for storage of incompatible materials: Observe local/state/federal regulations.
Further information for storage:
Store in a dry, cool place, protect against sun, protect against frost, prevent freezing during cold weather conditions. Store in the original
container. Store containers in a well ventilated place.
Minimum temperature allowed during storage and transportation: 0 °C (32 °F)
Do not allow this material to freeze.
Maximum temperature allowed during storage and transportation: 40 °C (104 °F)
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering controls
Ventilation:
Use only with adequate ventilation.
Local exhaust:
If spraying or other aerosol generating operations are performed, local exhaust ventilation designed to capture mists and sprays, such as
a paint spray booth, is recommended.
Associate substances with specific control parameters such as limit values.
Maximum airborne concentrates at the workplace: 64-17-5 Ethanol Type OSHA PEL, 1900 mg/m3, 1000 ppm
Re Ethanol (CAS No 64-17-4): STEL is 1000 ppm, carcinogenicityL A3 (ACGIH)
Personal protection equipment (PPE) Respiratory protection:
Respiratory protection is not normally required. If spraying or other operations which generate an aerosol mist are conducted, respiratory
protection for exposed personnel is recommended. A NIOSH approved air purifying respirator equipped with universal multi-
contaminant, multi-gas/vapor cartridges and at least P-99 solid/aerosol particulate filters is recommended if overexposure to dusts,
mists, or vapors could occur.
Hand protection:
Butyl rubber protective gloves, nitrile rubber protective gloves.
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side shields or chemical safety goggles. Where there is risk of splashing: tight fitting chemical safety googles.
Additional protective clothing or equipment: Additional skin protection, such as SARANEX coated Tyvek apron, over-sleeves, lab coat,
coveralls, or protective suit should be worn if splashing could occur. Provide eye bath and safety shower.
General hygiene and protection measures: Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling. Follow standard industrial hygiene practices when
using this material. Wash thoroughly after handling.
