Store in a cool(< 35C), well-ventilated dark area separated
from combustible substances, reducing agents, strong bases, organics.Do not
store on wooden shelves or floors. Suggest rotation of stock. Containers must
be vented, but check periodically for bulging containers which can burst from
pressure. Protect containers from physical damage, contamination, heat and
incompatibles.. Contamination from any source (dust, metals) may c>
Airborne Exposure Limits:
-OSHA Permissible Exposure
Limit (PEL):
1 ppm (TWA).
-ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV):
1 ppm
(TWA), A3: Animal carcinogen.
Ventilation System:
A system of
local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures below
the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source,
preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the
ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators
(NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded, wear a supplied
air, full-facepiece respirator, airlined hood, or full-facepiece
self-contained breathing apparatus. This substance has unknown warning
properties.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective
clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as
appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use
chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible.
Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

10. Stability and Reactivity
Stability:
Normally stable if uncontaminated, but
slowly decomposes to release oxygen. Unstable with heat, may result in
dangerous pressures. A strong oxidizer, reacts violently upon contact with
many organic substances, particularly textile and paper. Avoid light and keep
in a closed but vented container to prevent evaporation (concentration) and
contamination.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Decomposes to
water and oxygen with rapid heat release. Use vented containers. The solution
can decompose violently upon heating.
Hazardous Polymerization:
Will not occur.
Incompatibilities:
Heat, reducing agents,
organic materials, dirt, alkalis, rust, and many metals. Spontaneous
combustion may occur on standing in contact with readily flammable materials.
Conditions to Avoid:
Avoid excess heat and contact with
combustible or organic materials. Light and incompatibles.

13. Disposal Considerations
Whatever cannot be saved for recovery or recycling should be
handled as hazardous waste and sent to a RCRA approved waste facility.
Processing, use or contamination of this product may change the waste
management options. State and local disposal regulations may differ from
federal disposal regulations. Dilute with water and flush to sewer if local
ordinances allow, otherwise, whatever cannot be saved for recovery or
recycling should be managed in an appropriate and approved waste disposal
facility. Processing, use or contamination of this product may change the
waste management options. State and local disposal regulations may differ from
federal disposal regulations. Dispose of container and unused contents in
accordance with federal, state and local requirements.
