6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions
Wear personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate
personnel to safe areas. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Beware of vapors
accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapors can accumulate in low areas.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further leakage of spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must
be avoided.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Soak up with inert absorbent material and dispose of as hazardous waste. Contain spillage, and then collect with anelectrically protected vacuum cleaner or by wet-brushing and place in container for disposal according to local regulations.
Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of vapor or mist. Use explosion-proof equipment. Keep away fromsources of ignition - No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charge.
Conditions for safe storage
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully
resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Components with workplace control parameters
No reported exposure limit values.
Appropriate engineering controls
Use only in an area equipped with explosion proof exhaust ventilation.
Hygiene measures and engineering controls
Adequate ventilation and/or containment in accordance with good laboratory practices.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multipurpose
combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator
is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested andapproved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Hand protection
Handle with impermeable gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (withouttouching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves
after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.
Eye / face protection
Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166 Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved
under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Body protection
Complete suit protecting against chemicals. Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing. The type of protective
equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specificworkplace.
