SECTION 2: Hazards identification

2.3 Other hazards

This substance/mixture contains no components considered to be either persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT), or very persistent and very bioaccumulative (vPvB) at levels of 0.1% or higher. SECTION 7: Handling and storage 7.1 Precautions for safe handling Advice on protection against fire and explosion Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. Hygiene measures General industrial hygiene practice. For precautions see section 2.2. 7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Storage conditions Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Store in cool place. Storage stability Recommended storage temperature 15 - 25 °C Storage class Storage class (TRGS 510) 13 Non Combustible Solids 7.3 Specific end use(s) Apart from the uses mentioned in section 1.2 no other specific uses are stipulated SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection 8.1 Control parameters Ingredients with workplace control parameters 8.2 Exposure controls Personal protective equipment Eye/face protection Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU). Skin protection Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and the standard EN 374 derived from it. Body Protection Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the specific work-place., The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace. Respiratory protection Respiratory protection is not required. Where protection from nuisance levels of dusts are desired, use type N95 (US) or type P1 (EN 143) dust masks. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU). Control of environmental exposure No special environmental precautions required.
