SECTION 7: Handling and storage
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Recommendations
- Measures to prevent fire as well as aerosol and dust generation
Use local and general ventilation. Avoidance of ignition sources. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.
Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Due to danger of explosion,
prevent leakage of vapours into cellars, flues and ditches. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment. Use ex-
plosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting/equipment. Use only non-sparking tools.
- Specific notes/details
Places which are not ventilated, e.g. unventilated below ground level areas such as trenches, conduits and shafts, are
particularly prone to the presence of flammable substances or mixtures. Vapors are heavier than air, spread along
floors and form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air.
Advice on general occupational hygiene
Wash hands after use. Do not eat, drink and smoke in work areas. Remove contaminated clothing and protective
equipment before entering eating areas. Never keep food or drink in the vicinity of chemicals. Never place chemicals
in containers that are normally used for food or drink. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Managing of associated risks
- Explosive atmospheres
Keep container tightly closed and in a well-ventilated place. Use local and general ventilation. Keep cool. Protect
from sunlight.
- Flammability hazards
Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other
ignition sources. No smoking. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Protect from sunlight.
- Ventilation requirements
Use local and general ventilation. Ground/bond container and receiving equipment.
- Packaging compatibilities
Only packagings which are approved (e.g. acc. to the Dangerous Goods Regulations) may be used.
