Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid airborne dust generation. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where airborne dust is generated. Other suitable controls may include enclosure, isolation, water suppression, respiratory protective equipment. Handle packaged products carefully to prevent accidental bursting. If you require advice on safe handling techniques, please contact your supplier or check the Good Practice Guide referred to in section 16. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Minimise airborne dust generation and prevent wind dispersal during loading and unloading. Keep containers closed and store packaged products so as to prevent accidental bursting.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Regular cleaning of equipment and work area. Do not eat, drink and smoke in work areas; wash hands after use; remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Shower and change clothes at end of work shift.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Minimise airborne dust generation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below specified exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, fumes or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne particles below the exposure limit. Apply organisational measures, e.g. by isolating personnel from dusty areas.
Appropriate protection (e.g. gloves, barrier cream) is recommended for workers who suffer from dermatitis or sensitive skin. Wash hands at the end of each work session. Protective gloves: Material: Polyvinylchloride (PVC), Neoprene rubber (HNBR), Natural rubber; Permeation: 6 (> 480 minutes); Thickness: 0.3 mm; Standard: EN ISO 374.
Wear safety glasses with side-shields in circumstances where there is a risk of penetrative eye injuries. Do not wear contact lenses.
In case of prolonged exposure to airborne dust concentrations, wear a respiratory protective equipment that complies with the requirements of European or national legislation. The use of half or full face masks with filters against particles of category 2 or 3 (FP2 - FP3) is recommended. See EN 143: 2021 - Respiratory protective devices. Particle filters.
No specific requirement. Long sleeved protective clothing.
Ensure that there is a suitable ventilation system. Use a dust filter. Avoid wind dispersal. Collect spillage.
