Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Prevent contact with air/oxygen (formation of peroxide).
Containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place. Keep under nitrogen. Prevent entry of air/oxygen. Formation of peroxides.
Prevent electrostatic charge - sources of ignition should be kept well clear - fire extinguishers should be kept handy.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Suitable chemical resistant safety gloves (EN 374) also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): E.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), butyl rubber (0.7 mm) etc.
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Respiratory protection required in case of exceptional circumstances (e.g.: accidental release, exceeding the occupational exposure limit) Combination filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds and solid and liquid particles (f.e. EN 14387 Type A-P2)
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN 14605 in case of splashes or EN ISO 13982 in case of dust).
For information regarding environmental exposure controls, see Section 6.
