Precautions for safe handling: Do not breathe dusts or mists. Do not get in eyes, on skin, on clothing.
Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Provide adequate ventilation.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly
after handling. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid
breathing mists or vapors. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Stir well
before use. Keep containers closed when not in use. Minimize contact with
air to reduce contamination with mold, fungus, or other organisms which
could cause decomposition or spoilage. Wash thoroughly after handling.

controls: provided so that exposure limits are not exceeded. Mechanical ventilation
or local exhaust ventilation may be required.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
General information: Use personal protective equipment as required.
Eye/face protection: If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended.
Skin Protection
Hand Protection: Use good industrial hygiene practices to avoid skin contact. If contact with
the material may occur wear chemically protective gloves. Suitable gloves
can be recommended by the glove supplier.

Other: Gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to minimize contact.
Respiratory Protection: A respiratory protection program compliant with all applicable regulations
must be followed whenever workplace conditions require the use of a
respirator. Under normal use conditions, respirator is not usually required.
Use appropriate respiratory protection if exposure to dust particles, mist or
vapors is likely. Use self-contained breathing apparatus for entry into
confined space, for other poorly ventilated areas and for large spill clean-up
sites. Consult with an industrial hygienist to determine the appropriate
respiratory protection for your specific use of this material. A respiratory
protection program compliant with all applicable regulations must be
followed whenever workplace conditions require the use of a respirator.
Hygiene measures: Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after
handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely
wash work clothing to remove contaminants. Discard contaminated
footwear that cannot be cleaned.
