SDS

Date Printed: 4/30/2018
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. DO NOT use
combustible materials such as sawdust. Isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Remove
all sources of ignition, ventilate area and remove with inert absorbent and non-sparking tools. Dispose of according to local, state
(provincial) and federal regulations. Do not incinerate closed containers. Ventilate area, isolate spilled material, and remove with
inert absorbent. Dispose of contaminated absorbent, container, and unused contents in accordance with local, state, and federal
regulations.
7. Handling and Storage
HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.
Use only with adequate ventilation. Follow all SDS and label precautions even after container is emptied because it may retain
product residues. Avoid breathing fumes, vapors, or mist. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
STORAGE: Store in a dry, well ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Keep containers tightly closed.
Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Contents under pressure. Do not store above 120 ° F. Store large
quantities in buildings designed and protected for storage of flammable aerosols. Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and sources of
ignition. Avoid excess heat. Product should be stored in tightly sealed containers and protected from heat, moisture, and foreign
materials.

PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne
levels below recommended exposure limits. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Provide general dilution of local exhaust
ventilation in volume and pattern to keep TLV of hazardous ingredients below acceptable limits. Prevent build-up of vapors by
opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-ventilation.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be
followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. A NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with organic
vapor cartridge or canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed
exposure limits.
SKIN PROTECTION: Use gloves to prevent prolonged skin contact. Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin protection.
EYE PROTECTION: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further guidance regarding types of
personal protective equipment and their applications.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing
immediately and launder before reuse.
