vapours, mists or aerosols.
Use the information in this data sheet as input to a risk as-
sessment of local circumstances to help determine appropri-
ate controls for safe handling, storage and disposal of this
material.

Advice on safe handling : Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.

Avoid inhaling vapour and/or mists.
When handling product in drums, safety footwear should be
worn and proper handling equipment should be used.
Properly dispose of any contaminated rags or cleaning mate-
rials in order to prevent fires.

8.2 Exposure controls

Engineering measures
The level of protection and types of controls necessary will vary depending upon potential expo-
sure conditions. Select controls based on a risk assessment of local circumstances. Appropriate
measures include:
Adequate ventilation to control airborne concentrations.

Where material is heated, sprayed or mist formed, there is greater potential for airborne concen-
trations to be generated.

General Information:
Define procedures for safe handling and maintenance of controls.
Educate and train workers in the hazards and control measures relevant to normal activities as-
sociated with this product.
Ensure appropriate selection, testing and maintenance of equipment used to control exposure,
e.g. personal protective equipment, local exhaust ventilation.
Drain down system prior to equipment break-in or maintenance.
Retain drain downs in sealed storage pending disposal or subsequent recycle.

Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing hands after handling the ma-
terial and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective
equipment to remove contaminants. Discard contaminated clothing and footwear that cannot be
cleaned. Practice good housekeeping.
Personal protective equipment
The provided information is made in consideration of the PPE directive (Council Directive
89/686/EEC) and the CEN European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) standards.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) should meet recommended national standards. Check with
PPE suppliers.

Eye protection : If material is handled such that it could be splashed into eyes,
protective eyewear is recommended.
Approved to EU Standard EN166.

Hand protection

Remarks : Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of
gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374,
US: F739) made from the following materials may provide
suitable chemical protection. PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber
gloves Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on
usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical re-
sistance of glove material, dexterity. Always seek advice from
glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced.
Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.
Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using
gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Appli-
cation of a non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended.
For continuous contact we recommend gloves with break-
through time of more than 240 minutes with preference for >
480 minutes where suitable gloves can be identified. For
short-term/splash protection we recommend the same but
recognize that suitable gloves offering this level of protection
may not be available and in this case a lower breakthrough
time maybe acceptable so long as appropriate maintenance
and replacement regimes are followed. Glove thickness is not
a good predictor of glove resistance to a chemical as it is
dependent on the exact composition of the glove material.
Glove thickness should be typically greater than 0.35 mm
depending on the glove make and model.

Skin and body protection : Skin protection is not ordinarily required beyond standard
work clothes.
It is good practice to wear chemical resistant gloves.

Respiratory protection : No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under normal

conditions of use.
In accordance with good industrial hygiene practices, precau-
tions should be taken to avoid breathing of material.
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentra-

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

13.1 Waste treatment methods

Product : Recover or recycle if possible.
It is the responsibility of the waste generator to determine the
toxicity and physical properties of the material generated to
determine the proper waste classification and disposal meth-
ods in compliance with applicable regulations.
Waste product should not be allowed to contaminate soil or
ground water, or be disposed of into the environment.
Do not dispose into the environment, in drains or in water
courses
Do not dispose of tank water bottoms by allowing them to
drain into the ground. This will result in soil and groundwater
contamination.
Waste arising from a spillage or tank cleaning should be dis-
posed of in accordance with prevailing regulations, preferably
to a recognised collector or contractor. The competence of the
collector or contractor should be established beforehand.

MARPOL - see International Convention for the Prevention of

Pollution from Ships (MARPOL 73/78) which provides tech-
nical aspects at controlling pollutions from ships.

Contaminated packaging : Dispose in accordance with prevailing regulations, preferably

to a recognized collector or contractor. The competence of
the collector or contractor should be established beforehand.
Disposal should be in accordance with applicable regional,
national, and local laws and regulations.
