Storage precautions Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10). Store in accordance with local
regulations. Keep away from oxidising materials, heat and flames. Keep only in the original
container. Keep container tightly closed, in a cool, well ventilated place. Keep containers
upright. Protect containers from damage. Protect from sunlight. Do not store near heat
sources or expose to high temperatures. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding
50°C/122°F. Bund storage facilities to prevent soil and water pollution in the event of spillage.
The storage area floor should be leak-tight, jointless and not absorbent.

WEL = Workplace Exposure Limit
8.2. Exposure controls
Protective equipment
Appropriate engineering
controls
Provide adequate ventilation. Personal, workplace environment or biological monitoring may
be required to determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control measures and/or
the necessity to use respiratory protective equipment. Use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation or other engineering controls as the primary means to minimise worker exposure.
Personal protective equipment should only be used if worker exposure cannot be controlled
adequately by the engineering control measures. Ensure control measures are regularly
inspected and maintained. Ensure operatives are trained to minimise exposure.
Eye/face protection Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates
eye contact is possible. Personal protective equipment for eye and face protection should
comply with European Standard EN166. Unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of
protection is required, the following protection should be worn: Tight-fitting safety glasses.
Hand protection Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if
a risk assessment indicates skin contact is possible. The most suitable glove should be
chosen in consultation with the glove supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information
about the breakthrough time of the glove material. To protect hands from chemicals, gloves
should comply with European Standard EN374. Considering the data specified by the glove
manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are retaining their protective properties and
change them as soon as any deterioration is detected. Frequent changes are recommended.
Other skin and body
protection
Appropriate footwear and additional protective clothing complying with an approved standard
should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contamination is possible.
