concentrations in the air.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: ………………………………… Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and complete full-body personal
protective equipment.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES : …………………………………………………. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering area. Use
appropriate safety and personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
MITIGATION AND CLEAN UP PROCEDURES: …………………………… Use methods that avoid generating airborne dust. Use a vacuum with high
efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration is recommended. Avoid creating a dust cloud by brushing or sweeping, or using compressed air.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: ………………………………………….. Contain spilled product to the extent practical and feasible.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
STORAGE TEMPERATURE (min./max.): …………………………………… 0 F (-17 C) / 100 F (38 C)
STORAGE: …………………………………………………………………………….. Store in cool, dry place. Store in sealed containers to prevent moisture
absorption or absorption of other volatile materials.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS: ……………………………………………………. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing dust. Wash after handling. Provide
appropriate exhaust ventilation at points of operation where dust can be generated. Avoid using compressed air. Take precautionary measures
against static discharges. Metal parts of mixing and processing equipment should be earthed/grounded.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: . Use with adequate general ventilation and/or local ventilation to keep
exposures below established limits.
EYE PROTECTION GUIDELINES: …………………………………………….. Safety glasses with side shields, or goggles if necessary.
SKIN PROTECTION GUIDELINES: ……………………………………………. Gloves or a barrier cream may be useful to help prevent skin from drying.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION GUIDELINES: …………………………….. When ventilation cannot be made adequate enough to keep exposures
below established limits, use a NIOSH approved respirator with particulate filter, such as a N95 or greater, depending on specific workplace
conditions. Consult with your respirator and cartridge supplier to ensure proper selection of respirator and cartridge based on ingredients listed in
Section 3 and specific workplace conditions. Use and select a respirator according the guidelines established in OSHA 1910.134 or other
applicable respiratory protection standard.
ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE MEASURES: ………………………………….. Practice good caution and personal cleanliness to avoid skin and eye
contact. Wash thoroughly after handling. Generally speaking, working cleanly and following basic precautionary measures will greatly minimize the
exposure to this product under normal use conditions.
OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: ……………………………………… Exposure limits may not be established for this product as a whole. For
established exposure limits of specific ingredients in this product, or other available exposure limit information, refer to the table below.

the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be generated in significant quantities.
HMIS Hazard Classification
Health:0 Flammability:0 Physical Hazard:0 Personal Protection:X -See PPE section.
Hazardous Material Identification System (HMIS III) hazard ratings are designed to inform employees of chemical hazards
in the workplace. These ratingsare based on the inherent properties of the material under expected conditions of normal use

emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include
the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be generated in significant quantities.
HMIS Hazard Classification
Health:0 Flammability:0 Physical Hazard:0 Personal Protection:X -See PPE section.
Hazardous Material Identification System (HMIS III) hazard ratings are designed to inform employees of chemical hazards
in the workplace. These ratingsare based on the inherent properties of the material under expected conditions of normal use
