Methods for cleaning up or taking up: For large amounts: Pump off product. For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations. 7. Handling and Storage Handling No special measures necessary provided product is used correctly. Protection against fire and explosion: Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Storage Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool place. Protect from temperatures below: 5 C Protect from temperatures above: 35 C 8. Exposure controls and personal protection Components with occupational exposure limits No occupational exposure limits known. Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection in case of vapour/aerosol release. Particle filter with medium efficiency for solid and liquid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P2 or FFP2) Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves

5 Page: 5/12 Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): fluoroelastomer (FKM) mm coating thickness Polyethylene-Laminate (PE laminate) - ca. 0.1 mm coating thickness Suitable materials for short-term contact (recommended: At least protective index 2, corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374) nitrile rubber (NBR) mm coating thickness Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166) Body protection: Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure, e.g. apron, protecting boots, chemical-protection suit (according to EN in case of splashes or EN ISO in case of dust).
