Section 6: Accidental Release Measures


Release response:

Shut off all sources of ignition.

Note that surfaces containing this spilled material will be
slippery and therefore constitute a slip hazard.

Absorb with inert material (e.g. sand, diatomaceous earth, acid
absorbent, sawdust).



Section 7: Handling and Storage


Handling:

Use only in a chemical fume hood.  Keep away from all sources of
ignition.  Do not smoke when handling this material.


Inhalation:  Use only in a chemical fume hood.Storage:

Requirements for storage areas and containers:  Store in closed
containers away from all sources of ignition.



Section 8: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection


Engineering Controls:

Use only in a chemical fume hood.  Do not exceed the threshold
limits.

Personal Protection:


Skin:  Protective clothing such as long sleeves or a lab coat 
       should be worn, especially when working with larger quantities
       than a small 30 ml bottle.

Eye:  Always use safety glasses, even for work with small 
      quantities, such as the making of positive replicas.
