Section 7 - Handling and Storage
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Handling
Wear personal protective equipment. Do not breathe
gas/fumes/vapor/spray. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Do not
taste or swallow. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use only with adequate
ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. DO NOT handle, store or open
near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material
from direct sunlight. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Avoid release
to the environment.
Storage Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container
protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well ventilated area, away
from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink. Separate
from oxidizing materials. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until
ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed
and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers.
Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.
Keep from freezing.

Personal Protective Equipment
Respiratory Protection: A NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or
canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed
exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied
respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other
circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. A respiratory protection program
that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a
respirator's use.
Skin Protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves.
Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Other Protective Equipment: Wear protective clothing as necessary to minimize contact..
Hygienic Practices: Wash hands before eating. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only
in a well ventilated area. Follow all SDS/label precautions even after container is emptied because they may retain
product residues. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid breathing vapors from heated material. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.
