Safety & Health
- Health Effects
POLYSTEP HPE is corrosive to skin and eye at 100% active. The product may also cause allergic skin reaction.
Storage & Handling
- Storage & Handling
Normal safety precautions (i.e., safety goggles, dust mask and gloves) should be employed when handling POLYSTEP HPE. Contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling material.
Container Storage
It is recommended that POLYSTEP HPE be stored in original sealed containers and kept at temperatures below 95 °F (35 °C). Product is stable under recommended storage conditions. Keep product away from heat and sources of ignition. Avoid exposure to UV light or loss of dissolved oxygen.
- Workplace Exposure
Occupational exposure can occur primarily through skin contact or via inhalation of vapors and mists. Engineering controls, personal protective equipment, and other workplace practices should be used to control these exposures.
