Protective measures : Avoid contact with spilled or released material. Immediately

remove all contaminated clothing. For guidance on selection of
personal protective equipment see Chapter 8 of this Material
Safety Data Sheet. For guidance on disposal of spilled material
see Chapter 13 of this Material Safety Data Sheet. Be ready for
fire or possible exposure. Stay upwind and keep out of low
areas. Shut off leaks, if possible without personal risks. Remove
all possible sources of ignition in the surrounding area. Use
appropriate containment (of product and fire fighting water) to
avoid environmental contamination. Prevent from spreading or
entering drains, ditches or rivers by using sand, earth, or other
appropriate barriers. Attempt to disperse the vapour or to direct
its flow to a safe location for example by using fog sprays. Take
precautionary measures against static discharge. Ensure
electrical continuity by bonding and grounding (earthing) all
equipment.
Clean Up Methods : For small liquid spills (< 1 drum), transfer by mechanical means
to a labelled, sealable container for product recovery or safe
disposal. Allow residues to evaporate or soak up with an
appropriate absorbent material and dispose of safely. Remove
contaminated soil and dispose of safely.
For large liquid spills (> 1 drum), transfer by mechanical means
such as vacuum truck to a salvage tank for recovery or safe
disposal. Do not flush away residues with water. Retain as

with air. Notify authorities if any exposure to the general public or
the environment occurs or is likely to occur. Under Section 311
of the Clean Water Act (CWA) this material is considered an oil.
As such, spills into surface waters must be reported to the
National Response Center at (800) 424-8802. This material is
covered by EPA's Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) Petroleum Exclusion.
Therefore, releases to the environment may not be reportable
under CERCLA.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

General Precautions : Avoid breathing vapours or contact with material. Only use in
well ventilated areas. Wash thoroughly after handling. On
guidance on selection of personal protective equipment see
Chapter 8 of this Material Safety Data Sheet.
Handling : Avoid inhaling vapour and/or mists. Avoid contact with skin,
eyes and clothing. Even with proper grounding and bonding, this
material can still accumulate an electrostatic charge. If sufficient
charge is allowed to accumulate, electrostatic discharge and
ignition of flammable air-vapour mixtures can occur. Be aware of
handling operations that may give rise to additional hazards that
result from the accumulation of static charges. These include but
are not limited to pumping (especially turbulent flow), mixing,
filtering, splash filling, cleaning and filling of tanks and
containers, sampling, switch loading, gauging, vacuum truck
operations, and mechanical movements. These activities may
lead to static discharge e.g. spark formation. Restrict line
velocity during pumping in order to avoid generation of
electrostatic discharge (<= 1 m/s until fill pipe submerged to
twice its diameter, then <= 7 m/s). Avoid splash filling. Do NOT
use compressed air for filling, discharging, or handling
operations. The vapour is heavier than air. Beware of
accumulation in pits and confined spaces. Extinguish any naked
flames. Do not smoke. Remove ignition sources. Avoid sparks.
Handling Temperature: Ambient.
Storage : Keep away from aerosols, flammables, oxidizing agents,
corrosives and from other flammable products which are not
harmful or toxic to man or to the environment. Keep container
tightly closed. Must be stored in a diked (bunded) well-ventilated
area, away from sunlight, ignition sources and other sources of
heat. Vapours from tanks should not be released to atmosphere.
Breathing losses during storage should be controlled by a
suitable vapour treatment system. Electrostatic charges will be
generated during pumping. Electrostatic discharge may cause
fire. Ensure electrical continuity by bonding and grounding
(earthing) all equipment to reduce the risk. The vapours in the

head space of the storage vessel may lie in the

flammable/explosive range and hence may be flammable.
Storage Temperature: Ambient.
Product Transfer : Refer to guidance under Handling section.
Container Advice : Containers, even those that have been emptied, can contain
explosive vapours. Do not cut, drill, grind, weld or perform
similar operations on or near containers.
Additional Information : Ensure that all local regulations regarding handling and storage
facilities are followed.
See additional references that provide safe handling practices
for liquids that are determined to be static accumulators:
