Section 7: Accidental Release Measures
Accidental
Release Measures: |
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8
Spills: Sweep up and containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be used to avoid dust dispersal. Small amounts of residue may be flushed to sewer with plenty of water. |
[Top]
Section 8: Handling and Storage
| Handling and Storage: |
Keep in a well closed container stored under cold to warm conditions, 2 to 40 C, (36 to 104F). Protect
against physical damage. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain
product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product. |

Section 9: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
| Airborne Exposure Limits: |
None established. |
| Ventilation System: |
In general, dilution ventilation is a satisfactory health hazard control for this substance. However, if conditions of use create discomfort to the worker, a local exhaust system should be considered. |
| Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): |
For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95 or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. |
| WARNING: |
Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. |
| Skin Protection: |
Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing. |
| Eye Protection: |
Use chemical safety goggles. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area. |

Section 10: Stability and Reactivity
| Stability: |
Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. |
| Hazardous Decomposition Products: |
Gaseous carbon dioxide. |
| Hazardous Polymerization: |
Will not occur. |
| Incompatibilities: |
Reacts with acids to form carbon dioxide. Dangerous reaction
with monoammonium phosphate or a sodium-potassium alloy. |
| Conditions to Avoid: |
Heat, moisture, incompatibles. |
