Handling and storage

· Precautions for safe handling

Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace.

Store in cool, dry place in tightly closed receptacles.

Keep away from heat and direct sunlight.

Prevent static electric sparks.

Prevent formation of aerosols.

· Information about fire - and explosion protection:

Keep ignition sources away - Do not smoke.

Protect against electrostatic charges.

Protect from heat.

Traces of flammable substances may collect in the steam chamber of enclosed systems. Keep clear of ignition sources.

Fumes can combine with air to form an explosive mixture.

When heated the product forms flammable fumes.

The product is flammable.

Heating of container(s) will cause pressure rise with risk of bursting and subsequent explosion (BLEVE).

The vapour may be invisible and is heavier than air. It spreads along the ground and may enter sewers and basements.

· Exposure controls

· Personal protective equipment:

· General protective and hygienic measures:

Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.

Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.

Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.

Avoid contact with the eyes.

Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.

· Respiratory protection:

In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use self-contained respiratory protective device.

Filter A/P2

· Protection of hands:

Protective gloves.

Check the condition of the gloves prior to each use.

The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.

Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.

Preventive skin protection by use of skin-protecting agents is recommended.

· Material of gloves

The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. As the product is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.

Butyl rubber, BR

Nitrile rubber, NBR

Recommended thickness of the material: >= 0.7 mm

· Penetration time of glove material

EN 420: Minimum requirements for efficiency level 1 for all groups.

The exact break through time has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

For the mixture of chemicals mentioned below the penetration time has to be at least 480 minutes (Permeation according to EN 374 Part 3: Level 6).

· For the permanent contact gloves made of the following materials are suitable:

Butyl rubber, BR

Nitrile rubber, NBR

· Not suitable are gloves made of the following materials:

Leather gloves

cloth gloves

· Eye protection:

Tightly sealed goggles

· Body protection: Protective work clothing.

Disposal considerations

· Waste treatment methods

· Recommendation: Disposal must be made according to official regulations.

· Waste disposal key:

The disposal of the product has to be carried out in accordance with the legal requirements. EWC waste codes are strictly industry-oriented, therefore waste classification has to be done by the waste producer.
