VME = 0.1 mg/m^3

VLE = 0.2 mg/m^3

Personal Protection:

Respiratory protection - Gas filter type A, if HSE occupational exposure limit or MAK-value will be exceeded. Respirator in the presence of dusts, fumes, and vapors. Use OSHA/NIOSH approved respirator with cartrige for acid fumes and particulates.

Hand protection / protective gloves - Protective gloves, of PVC or rubber.

Stability and reactivity

Incompatible materials:

If stored and handled as instructed: none

Hazardous combustion products:

If stored and handled as instructed: none

Disposal considerations

Minor quantities of waste water (essentially comprised of reaction water distilled off during manufacturing) are treated in an onsite sewage plant. Solids (used filters) are incinerated.
