7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
Operators should wear anti-static footwear and clothing. Use only non-sparking tools. Good housekeeping standards
and regular safe removal of waste materials will minimise the risks of spontaneous combustion and other fire hazards.
Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations
of vapour in air and avoid vapour concentration higher than the occupational exposure limits. Provide adequate
ventilation. The product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and other sources of ignition have been
excluded. Electrical equipment should be protected to the appropriate standard. Preparation may charge electrostatically:
always use earthing leads when transferring from one container to another. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away
from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not breathe vapours or
spray mist. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Do not use pressure to empty drums. Store in original container.
Storage:
Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Take notice of the
directions of use on the label. Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
Keep away from direct sunlight. Store in a place accessible by authorized persons only. Do not smoke.
Storage temperature:
10 - 30 C
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure limits:
Australia:
Engineering measures:
During curing, decomposition products may be formed, which should be extracted safely from the work area. Provide
adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and
good general extraction. If these are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates and solvent vapour below the
OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
Basic Personal Protection
Respiration
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators.
Hand protection:
Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection. Use protective skin cream before handling the product.
Skin:
Wear as appropriate: Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing Wear shoes with conductive soles.
Eyes:
Wear as appropriate: Safety glasses with side-shields Goggles
Hygiene measures:
Do not use solvents or thinners to clean skin. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash hands before breaks and at
the end of workday. It is good practice in industrial hygiene to avoid contact with solvents by using appropriate protective
measures whenever possible.
