Storage:
Store closed packagings in cool, ventilated space.
Keep away from inflammable objects/substances.
Storage temperature equivalent to ambient temperature.

8. Measures to control exposure and personal protection

Air ventilation:
The minimum quantity of air required to reach the MAC value when ventilating is 6,000 m3
per litre of the product.
The MAC value is 100 ppm.

Advice for personal protection:

If personnel are exposed to a level above the minimum level, they must use suitable and
approved breathing apparatus.
If the hands are repeatedly exposed to contact with the substance, or for a long period of
time, a sealing cream can be used to protect any uncovered skin. These cannot be used,
however, if the skin has already been in contact with the substance.
Use protective glasses.
