HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling: See FIRST AID and PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

SECTIONS.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep containers tightly closed to

prevent moisture absorption and contamination

EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Engineering Controls: Use local ventilation to control fumes from hot processing.

Personal Protection:

Eye/Face: Wear safety glasses. Wear coverall chemical splash goggles

and face shield when possibility exists for eye and face contac

due to splashing or spraying of molten material. A full face mas

respirator provides protection from eye irritation

Skin: If there is potential contact with hot/molten material, wear heat

resistant clothing and footwear.

Respiratory: A NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with an organic

vapor cartridge with a dust/mist filter may be permissible under

certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected

to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying

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.
