6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contact and breathing in vapours. Shut off all possible sources of ignition. Work
up wind or increase ventilation. Clear area of all unprotected personnel. Contact local emergency services where appropriate.

Environmental precautions
Avoid contaminating waterways. If contamination of sewers or waterways has occurred advise local emergency services.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Contain using sand or soil. Prevent run off into drains or waterways. Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert material). Collect and
seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal.

Reference to other sections

See Section 8 for appropriate personal protective equipment. See Section 13 for waste treatment methods.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Keep out of reach of children. Avoid skin and eye contact and breathing in vapour. Always wash hands before smoking, eating,
drinking or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storage or re-use.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated place out of direct sunlight. Store away from sources of heat or ignition. Store away from
foodstuffs. Store away from incompatible materials described in Section 10. Keep container standing upright. Keep containers closed
when not in use. Check regularly for leaks.

 SAFETY DATA SHEET

Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering controls

Natural ventilation should be adequate under normal use conditions. Keep containers closed when not in use.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

The selection of PPE is dependent on a detailed risk assessment. The risk assessment should consider the work situation, the physical
form of the chemical, the handling methods, and environmental factors.

Eye/face protection
Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid
exposure to liquid splashes, mists, gases or dusts. Refer to Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337:1992 for guidance on
selection and use of protective eyewear.

Skin protection
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn at all times when handling chemical
products if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Refer to Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 2161.1: 2000 for guidance
on selection and use of protective gloves. Personal protective equipment for the body, appropriate footwear and any additional skin
protection should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before
handling this product.

Respiratory protection
Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary. Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe
working limits of the selected respirator. Refer to Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS 1716 for guidance on
selection and use of respiratory devices.

General safety and hygiene measures

Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the
end of the working period. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated
clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
