7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Information for safe handling: Ensure good ventilation /
exhaustion at the workplace. Take note of limit values.
Prevent aerosol formation.
Information about protection against fires and explosions:
Keep ignition sources away. Don't smoke. Fumes are heavier
than air and can form explosive mixtures with air.
STORAGE: Requirements for storage and containers: Store in cool and
dry conditions in well sealed containers. Solvent resistant and
impermeable floor.
Information about storage in common storage facility: Not
required.
Class: Note regulations on flammable liquids. Class A1.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
CONTROL MEASURES: Use appropriate exhaustion for solvent vapours to reduce the
exposure to a minimum. See section 7.
COMPONENTS WITH LIMIT VALUES THAT REQUIRE MONITORING AT THE WORKPLACE:
CHEMICAL NAME CAS-No. LONG V. SHORT. V
3
Ethyl acetate 141-78-6 500 1100 mg/m

Limit values taken from "Kemiska 鋗nen 9.0", Arbetarskyddsn鋗nden, Stockholm, Sweden. Check for the correct limit values
for the location where the product is used.
PERSONAL PROTECTION: Breathing equipment: use breathing apparatus in case of
brief exposure over the limit values (filter type A). Use
breathing apparatus independent of circulation air in case of
longer exposures above the limit values.
Protective gloves: Solvent resistant gloves.
Eye protection: Tightly sealed safety glasses.
Hygiene: Take off any contaminated clothes. Don't inhale
vapours. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Keep away from
foodstuff, beverages and food. Don't eat, drink, smoke or
