Storage & Handling
- Storage And Handling
Safe handling advice
- Ensure all equipment is electrically grounded before beginning transfer operations. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Keep container tightly closed. The use of foam glass as an insulating material can reduce the risk of such spontaneous combustion. Insulation material soaked with the product must be replaced with new insulation material as soon as possible.
