SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation to locations distant from the point of
material handling. To prevent ignition, avoid smoking, keep away from heat, open flames and sources of static or electrical
sparking. Use explosion proof motors and equipment. Tank trucks or other containers should be grounded and/or bonded
when the material is transferred.
Avoid prolonged or repeated inhalation of vapors or spray mists. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact.
Adhere to good hygienic practices. Avoid open flames. Use with adequate ventilation.
Store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight and away from heat, sparks, and flame.
Health studies have shown that many petroleum hydrocarbons pose potential human health risks which may vary from
person to person. As a precaution, exposure to liquids, vapors, mists or fumes should be minimized.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
Respiratory Protection: Use supplied-air respirator in confined areas or with vapors in high concentrations.
Ventilation: Local Exhaust: In enclosed areas. Special: None
Mechanical: In enclosed areas. Other: None
Eye Protection: Safety glasses or face shield for liquid material.
Protective Gloves: Solvent impervious gloves.
Other Protective Clothing Equipment: Long sleeves and impervious clothing to protect against splashing.
Work/Hygienic Practices: See Section 7.
