REAGENT S-11194 Frother SDS: 0060705 Date Prepared: 07/01/2016 Page 4 of 10 References to other sections: See Sections 8 and 13 for additional information. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING Precautions: Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. -No smoking. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Avoid release to the environment. Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Wear protective gloves/clothing and eye/face protection. Special Handling Statements: This material contains a flammable or combustible liquid and vapor. This is a research and development(R&D)sample. The chemical, physical, and toxicological properties of this material have not been fully investigated. Its handling or use may be hazardous. It may only be used for R&D purposes under the supervision of technically qualified individuals. STORAGE Areas containing this material should have fire safe practices and electrical equipment in accordance with applicable regulations and/or guidelines. Standards are primarily based on the material's Flashpoint, but may also take into account properties such as miscibility with water or toxicity. All local and national regulations should be followed. In the Americas, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 30: Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code, is a widely used standard. NFPA 30 establishes storage conditions for the following classes of materials: Class I Flammable Liquids, Flashpoint<37.8 'C. Class II Combustible Liquids, 37.8 °C < Flashpoint<60 'C. Class Illa Combustible Liquids, 60 °C < Flashpoint< 93 *C. Class IIIb Combustible Liquids, Flashpoint > 93 'C. Storage Temperature: Room temperature Reason: Quality. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Measures: Utilize a closed system process where feasible. Where this material is not used in a closed system, good enclosure and local exhaust ventilation should be provided to control exposure. Respiratory Protection: For operations where inhalation exposure can occur, use an approved respirator recommended by an industrial hygienist after an evaluation of the operation. Where inhalation exposure cannot occur, no respiratory protection is required. A full facepiece respirator also provides eye and face protection. Eye Protection: Prevent eye and skin contact. Provide eye wash fountain and safety shower in close proximity to points of potential exposure. Wear eye/face protection such as chemical splash proof goggles or face shield. Skin Protection: Prevent contamination of skin or clothing when removing protective equipment. Wear impermeable gloves and suitable protective clothing. Hand Protection: Nitrile or fluorinated rubber gloves. Consider the porosity and elasticity data of the glove manufacturer and the specific conditons in the work place. Replace gloves immediately when torn or any change in appearance (dimension, colour, flexibility etc) is noticed. Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin, they should however not be applied once exposure has occurred.
