Explosion Hazards
Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Small Spill and Leak Evacuate area. Shut off all sources of ignition. Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert
dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container.
Large Spill and Leak Evacuate area. Shut off all sources of ignition. Cover with dry-lime, sand, or soda ash. Place in
covered containers using non-sparking tools and transport outdoors. Ventilate area and wash spill
site after material pickup is complete.
Section 7, Handling and Storage
Handling Avoid prolonged exposure or repeated exposure. See section 8.
Storage Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Store in a cool dry place.
Section 8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of
vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers
are proximal to the work-station location.
Personal Protection
Eyes Safety goggles required.
Body Protective clothing advised. Lab coat.
Respiratory Wear appropriate NIOSH/MSHA-approved respirator.
Hands Chemical resistant gloves.
Feet Rubber boots advised.
Personal Protection in Same as above.
