Methods and materials for <br />Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep <br />containment and cleaning up <br />combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Ventilate the contaminated area <br />This product is miscible in water. <br />Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is <br />possible Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product <br />and place into a container for later disposal. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or <br />confined areas. Following product recovery, flush area with water. <br />Small Spills: Absorb with earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers <br />for later disposal. Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. <br />Never return spills to original containers for re -use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. <br />Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. <br />Environmental precautions <br />Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. <br />7. Handling and storage <br />Precautions for safe handling <br />Provide adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat. Keep away from clothing and other <br />combustible materials. Take any precaution to avoid mixing with combustibles. Do not get this <br />material in contact with eyes. Do not taste or swallow. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. <br />Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Observe <br />good industrial hygiene practices. <br />Conditions for safe storage, <br />Keep away from heat. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Store in original tightly <br />including any incompatibilities <br />closed container. Store in a well -ventilated place. Do not store near combustible materials. Store <br />away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). <br />8. Exposure controls/personal protection <br />Occupational exposure limits No exposure limits noted for ingredient(s). <br />Biological limit values No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s). <br />Appropriate engineering Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates <br />controls should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, <br />or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If <br />exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Provide <br />eyewash station. <br />Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment <br />Eye/face protection Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face shield. <br />Skin protection <br />Hand protection Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove <br />supplier. Be aware that the liquid may penetrate the gloves. Frequent change is advisable. <br />Other Wear suitable protective clothing. <br />Respiratory protection In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. <br />Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary. <br />General hygiene Keep from contact with clothing and other combustible materials. Remove and wash contaminated <br />considerations clothing promptly. Keep away from food and drink. Always observe good personal hygiene <br />measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or <br />smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants. <br />9.
