MATERIAL SAFETY AND HANDLING INFORMATION
SKIN CONTACT: WASTE DISPOSAL

Thoroughly wash exposed area with soap and water immediately.
Remove contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated clothing Destroy by liquid incineration in accordance with applicable
before re-use. regulation. Contaminated absorbent should be disposed in
accordance to government regulations.
EYE CONTACT:
Flush with large amount of water immediately and continuously PACKAGE
for 20 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids occasionally. Get
medical attention. Standard packing is 200 kg steel drum.
INGESTION:
Do not induce vomiting. Keep person warm, quiet and get
medical attention. Aspiration of material into the lungs can cause
chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal.
INHALATION:
If affected, remove individual to fresh air. If breathing is difficult,
administer oxygen. If breathing has stopped, give artificial
respiration. Keep person warm, quiet, and get medical attention.
PERSONAL PROTECTION:
Do not breathe vapors. High concentration of vapor can be
hazardous. Keep out of sewers. Eliminate all sources of ignition
in vicinity of spill or released vapor to avoid fire or explosion. For
large spills, warn public of downwind explosion hazard. Check
area with explosion meter before re-entering area. Ground and
bond all containers and handling equipment.
RESIN STORAGE
Keep away from ignition sources; flames, pilot lights, electrical

sparks, and sparking tools. NO SMOKING. Do not store in direct
sunlight. Store separate from oxidizing materials, peroxides, and
metal salts. Keep container closed when not in use. To ensure
maximum stability and maintain optimum resin properties, resins
should be stored in closed containers at temperatures below 25
℃ (77℉). Copper or copper containing alloys should be avoided
as containers.
SPILLS
Eliminate all ignition sources (flares, flames, including pilot lights

electrical sparks). Persons not wearing protective equipment
should be exclude from area of spill until clean-up has been
completed. Stop spill at source, dike area of spill to prevent
spreading, pump liquid to salvage tank. Remaining liquid may be
taken up on sand, clay, earth, floor absorbent or other absorbent
