Restrictions on Use: For industrial, professional and laboratory use. Not for ingestion, medicinal or food use.
Storage & Handling
- Recommended Storage
- Store in tightly closed original containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated flammable-liquids area that meets NFPA 30, away from heat, sparks and open flame. Ground and bond containers and equipment when transferring: vapor can be ignited by static discharge. Do not store with oxidizing agents, strong acids, peroxides, aldehydes, halogens, ammonia, acid anhydrides or alkali metals.Adjudicated
- Handling Precautions
- Use chemical-resistant gloves and splash goggles. Bond and ground during transfer to prevent static accumulation. Eliminate ignition sources within vapor envelope.Class-level guidance — not product-specific; the SDS controls.
- Incompatibilities
- Strong oxidizing agents; strong acids and acid anhydrides; peroxides; aldehydes; halogens; ammonia and amines; alkali metals, potassium and aluminum; iron salts. May attack some plastics and rubber.Adjudicated
- Shelf Life
- Consult Technical Services for product-specific shelf life
