SeaAlu (UK)Storage:during the spraying process and until such time as the particulates and solventvapour concentration has fallen below the exposure limits.Store in accordance with local regulations. Observe label precautions. Store in a dry,cool and well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat and direct sunlight.Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep away from: oxidising agents, strongalkalis, strong acids.No smoking. Prevent unauthorised access. Containers that have been opened mustbe carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not empty into drains.8. Exposure controls/personal protectionEngineering measuresIngredient namexyleneSolvent naphtha (petroleum), lightarom.ethylbenzenebis(1-hydroxy-1h-pyridine-2-thionatoo,s)copper:Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable, this should be achievedby the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. If these are notsufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates and solvent vapours below theOEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.Occupational exposure limitsEH40-WEL (United Kingdom (UK), 9/2006).

Use respiratory mask with charcoal and dust filterwhen spraying this product.(as filter combination A2-P3). In confined spaces, usecompressed-air or fresh-air respiratory equipment. When use of roller or brush,consider use of charcoalfilter.Personnel should wear antistatic clothing made of natural fibres or of hightemperature-resistantsynthetic fibres.For prolonged or repeated handling, use the following type of gloves: gloves:polyvinyl alcohol or nitrile.Eyes9.:Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin but should not beapplied once exposure has occurred.For right choice of glove materials, with focus on chemical resistance and time ofpenetration, seek advice by the supplier of chemical resistant gloves.The user must check that the final choice of type of glove selected for handling thisproduct is the most appropriate and takes into account the particular conditions ofuse, as included in the user's risk assessment.Physical and chemical propertiesPhysical state: Liquid.Odour: Hydrocarbon.Colour: Various colours.Flash point: Closed cup: 25°C (77°F)Density : 1.4 g/cm 3Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.Vapour density : Highest known value: 3.7 (Air = 1) (Xylene).

SeaAlu (UK)Solubility10.Stability and reactivity:Insoluble in the following materials: cold water and hot water.Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions (see section 7).Hazardous decomposition products: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, smoke, oxides of nitrogen.Keep away from the following materials to prevent strong exothermic reactions: oxidising agents, strong alkalis, strongacids.11.Toxicological informationThere is no data available on the preparation itself. The preparation has been assessed following the conventionalmethod of the Dangerous Preparations <strong>Direct</strong>ive 1999/45/EC and classified for toxicological hazards accordingly. Seesections 2 and 15 for details.Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result inadverse health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys,liver and central nervous system. Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the skin.Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, lossof consciousness. Repeated or prolonged contact with the preparation may cause removal of natural fat from the skin,resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption through the skin. If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may causeirritation and reversible damage.Contains: Colophony. May produce an allergic reaction.12.Ecological informationThere is no data available on the preparation itself.Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses.The preparation has been assessed following the conventional method of the Dangerous Preparations <strong>Direct</strong>ive1999/45/EC and is classified for eco-toxicological properties accordingly.
