Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Recommendations - Measures to prevent fire as well as aerosol and dust generation. Use local and general ventilation. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Never add water to this product. - Handling of incompatible substances or mixtures: Do not mix with alkali. - Keep away from Caustic solutions.

Storage

Managing of associated risks: Store in corrosive resistant container with a resistant inner liner. Packaging compatibilities: Only packagings which are approved (e.g. acc. to ADR) may be used.

Hygiene

Wash hands after use. Do not eat, drink and smoke in work areas. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Never keep food or drink in the vicinity of chemicals. Never place chemicals in containers that are normally used for food or drink. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.

Fire prevention

Measures to prevent fire. Never add water to this product.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

General ventilation.

Hands

Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. Check leak-tightness/impermeability prior to use. In the case of wanting to use the gloves again, clean them before taking off and air them well. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.

Eyes

Wear eye/face protection.

Respiratory

In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection.

Skin/Body

Take recovery periods for skin regeneration. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

Environmental

Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination. Keep away from drains, surface and ground water.
