Published by SALUSA comprehensive chemical safety policy should include guidelines for handling and storing chemicals, as well as procedures for dealing with accidental releases. When handling chemicals, it's important to avoid contact with skin and eyes, and to avoid inhalation of vapors or dusts 2, 3, 7, 11, 16. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves, eye protection, and respirators, especially in poorly ventilated areas or when exposure limits may be exceeded [1]. Ensure adequate ventilation and, if necessary, use a hood to prevent inhalation of substances 3, 9, 17, 20.
For storage, keep containers tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place, away from heat and sources of ignition 2, 3, 4, 11, 15. Store chemicals in accordance with local regulations, in a segregated and approved area, away from incompatible materials and food and drink [2]. Some chemicals require specific storage conditions, such as under inert gas or in non-metal containers 2, 6, 14. Regularly inspect containers for peroxide formation before distillation [3].
In case of accidental release, avoid breathing vapors or dusts and ensure adequate ventilation 1, 3, 6, 14, 17, 20. Use appropriate PPE and evacuate the area if necessary 1, 3, 6, 7, 14, 16, 17, 20. Contain and clean up spills using appropriate methods and materials, such as liquid-absorbent material or by taking up dry, while avoiding the generation of dusts 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 11, 17, 20. Dispose of the waste properly, in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 11.

# Section 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling Protective measures <table><tr><th>Protective measures</th><th>Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Do not swallow. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Do not enter storage areas and confined spaces unless adequately ventilated. Keep in the original container or an approved alternative made from a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Store and use away from heat, sparks, open flame or any other ignition source. Use explosion-proof electrical (ventilating, lighting and material handling) equipment. Use only non-sparking tools. Take precautionary measures against electrostatic discharges. Empty containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse container.</th></tr><tr><td>Advice on general occupational hygiene</td><td>Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating, drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures.</td></tr><tr><td>Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities</td><td>Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved area. Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink. Store locked up. Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmen…
