6.4 Reference to other sections
Refer also to sections 8 and 13.
7.0 HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Avoid handling, as this may cause staining. Specific personal protective equipment is stated in section 8.

Store in a cool place and out of direct sunlight. Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
7.3 Specific end uses
Refer to subsection 1.2
8.0 EXPOSURE CONTROL / PERSONAL PROTECTION
8.1 Control parameters
Workplace exposure limits: None assigned
DNEL (derived no effect level): Not yet established PNEC (predicted no effect concentration): Not yet established
8.2 Exposure controls
General: Check workplace instructions/procedures and risk assessments for any exposure control and personal protective equipment requirements (eg COSHH assessments). Exposure control measures and personal protective equipment specified in these risk assessments should take precedence over the more general recommendations below because they take into account highly variable factors specific to the workplace and activity concerned which cannot be anticipated in a safety data sheet. Otherwise:
Engineering controls: There are no specific ventilation requirements. Eyewash facilities should be available.
Respiratory protection: No specific requirements.
Eye protection: Eye protection such as safety glasses should be worn when handling due to possible temporary staining.
Skin protection: Chemically resistant gloves, e.g. rubber, neoprene, butyl, PVC or nitrile, should be worn to protect against temporary staining.
Environmental: Refer to section 6.2.
General hygiene: Remove all protective equipment before eating, drinking or smoking, and before entering any ‘clean’ areas. Hands should be washed immediately after any contact with the product. All protective equipment should be cleaned before removal where practical and before re-use – if not possible, they should be disposed of as chemical waste (refer to section 13).
