7  PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE

Steps To Be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled:

Contain the spill.  Eliminate ignition sources.  Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothes.  Avoid breathing vapors.  Ventilate area.  Pressure demand air supplied respirators should always be worn when the airborne concentration of the contaminant or oxygen is unknown. Use non-combustible absorbent materials; place absorbed spill into labeled airtight drums. Keep spill out of drains, sewers and waterways.  Wear boots or rubber footwear.

Waste Disposal Method:  Dispose all waste in accordance with Federal, State and Local regulations.

Precautions To Be Taken in Handling and Storing:

     Store in tightly closed containers in a cool area away from heat and flames.

      Use with adequate ventilation and proper grounding of all transfer equipment.

      Avoid breathing of vapors and mist.

      Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing.

      Use proper personal protective equipment when needed.

     Remove contaminated clothing.  Launder before re-use.

      Store away from incompatible materials.

8  CONTROL MEASURES

Respiratory Protection (Specify Type): 

     When required for certain operations, use an approved air purifying respirator. (NIOSH Approved)

Ventilation

     Local Exhaust:  Recommended when appropriate to control employee exposure.

      Mechanical (General):  Use in addition to local exhaust if required.

Protective Gloves:  Use chemical resistant gloves.

Eye Protection:  Use chemical safety goggles.

Other Protective Clothing or Equipment:  Use a chemical apron or other protective clothing as required.

Work/Hygienic Practices:  Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating.  Remove       contaminated clothing.

Engineering Controls:  Emergency shower and eyewash facilities should be in close proximity.
