Disposal. Residues or small spillages shall
Be rubbed by cloth and wash it with clean
Water completely. It became very slippy
On ground when contacting water.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling precautions: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
When preparing the working solution ensure
There is adequate ventilation. Do not breathe
Vapors or spray mist. When using so not
Smoke.
Storage conditions: Avoid wet, damp and humid conditions. Keep
in a dry, cool place. Avoid extremes of
Temperature.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering measures to reduce exposure: Ensure adequate ventilation. Use local exhaust if misting
occurs. Natural ventilation is adequate in absence of mists.
Personal protection equipment:
-Respiratory protection: in case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable
respiratory.
-Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields. Do not wear
contact lones.
-Hand protection: PVC or other plastic material gloves.
Industrial hygiene: change contaminated clothing. Wash hand
after working with substance.
