Aspiration of material into lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal. [. . . ] Place absorbent diking materials in covered metal containers for disposal. Prevent contamination of sewers, streams and groundwater with spilled material or used absorbent. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING AND STORAGE: Keep container closed when not in use. Store at 60 ­ 80 °F and out of the sun and away from ignition sources. Use adequate ventilation to avoid breathing vapors when cover is removed. Ground and bond all equipment when handling flammable solvent borne materials. Shelf life is 1 year from manufacturers date in an unopened container. Turn off all pilot lights, flames, stoves, heaters, electric motors, welding equipment and other sources of ignition. For flammable products, vapors may cause flash fire or ignite explosively. Do not cut, drill, grind, or expose containers to heat, sparks, static electricity or other source of ignition. OTHER PRECAUTIONS: SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION ENGINEERING CONTROLS / VENTILATION: Provide sufficient explosion proof mechanical ventilation to prevent exceeding recommended exposure limits or build up of explosive concentrations of vapor in air. If personal exposure concentrations cannot be maintained below the appropriate exposure limits using engineering controls, a NIOSH/MSHA approved organic vapor air purifying respirator may be appropriate based on employer-determined exposure levels. Air supplied or SCBA respirators may be required when the measured chemical concentration exceeds the capacity of the air purifying Page 4 of 8 RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: GAF Materials Corporation MSDS # 2120 respirator or when personal exposure levels are unknown. EYE PROTECTION: SKIN PROTECTION: Safety glasses with side shields are recommended. Wear chemical resistant gloves when handling this product to avoid prolonged skin contact. Wear chemical resistant boots when handling this product to avoid prolonged skin contact. Wash exposed skin prior to eating, drinking or smoking and at the end of each shift.
