:No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Put on appropriate personal
protective equipment.
Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
For non-emergency
personnel
For emergency responders:If specialized clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information in
Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the information in “For non-
emergency personnel”.
Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Approach release from
upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas.
Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth,
vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local
regulations (see Section 13). Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Contaminated absorbent material may pose the same hazard as the spilled product.
Note: see Section 1 for emergency contact information and Section 13 for waste
disposal. Wear appropriate respiratory protection. Wear protective clothing and eye or
face protection:
Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Dispose of via a licensed
waste disposal contractor. Absorb with an inert material and transfer the spilled
material and absorbent to an appropriate waste disposal container. Wear appropriate
respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Wear eye/face protection.

Section 7. Handling and storage
Advice on general
occupational hygiene
Conditions for safe storage,
including any
incompatibilities
Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is
handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating,
drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before
entering eating areas. See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene
measures.
Do not store above the following temperature: 38 C (100.4 F). Store in accordance with
local regulations. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool
and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food
and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that
have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do
not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination. See Section 10 for incompatible materials before handling or use.

Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Ingredient name Exposure limits
Hand protection Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be
worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary.
Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists,
gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless
the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: safety glasses with side-
shields.
Eye/face protection

:
Body protection Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being
performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before
handling this product.
:
Environmental exposure
controls
:Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment
will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
Appropriate engineering
controls
:Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to airborne
contaminants.
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
