Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering Measures:

Where this material is not used in a closed system, good enclosure and local exhaust ventilation should be provided to control exposure.

Respiratory Protection:

For operations where inhalation exposure can occur, use an approved respirator recommended by an industrial hygienist after an evaluation of the operation. Where inhalation exposure cannot occur, no respiratory protection is required. A full facepiece respirator also provides eye and face protection.

Eye Protection:

Wear eye/face protection such as chemical splash proof goggles or face shield. Eyewash equipment and safety shower should be provided in areas of potential exposure.

Skin Protection:

Avoid skin contact. Wear impermeable gloves and suitable protective clothing.

Hand Protection:

Wear impermeable gloves. Consider the porosity and elasticity data of the glove manufacturer and the specific conditions in the work place.

Additional Advice:

Food, beverages, and tobacco products should not be carried, stored, or consumed where this material is in use. Before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash face and hands thoroughly with soap and water.

Stability and reactivity

Stability: Stable; Conditions To Avoid: None known.

Polymerization: Will not occur; Conditions To Avoid: None known.

Materials To Avoid: Strong oxidizing agents.

Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide (CO), Oxides of sulfur (includes sulfur di and tri oxides)

Disposal considerations

The Company encourages the recycle, recovery and reuse of materials, where permitted, as an alternate to disposal as a waste. The Company recommends that organic materials classified as hazardous wastes be disposed of by thermal treatment or incineration at approved facilities. Local and national regulations should be followed.
