Safety Precautions

TOXIC MATERIAL - Professional handling required. Class 6.1 toxic liquid requiring comprehensive ventilation systems and exposure monitoring. Store in temperature-controlled environments below 90°F (32°C). Mandatory PPE includes chemical-resistant gloves (Viton® or PVA, minimum 15 mil thickness), splash-proof chemical goggles, organic vapor respirator with appropriate cartridges, and chemical-resistant coveralls. Work only in properly functioning vapor control systems with local exhaust ventilation. Maintain exposure levels below OSHA PEL of 100 ppm TWA. Ensure proper chemical segregation from oxidizing agents and strong bases. Install emergency eyewash stations and safety showers in handling areas. Follow all OSHA regulations for handling chlorinated solvents and maintain proper air monitoring systems. Utilize only compatible materials for transfer and storage including carbon steel, stainless steel, or PTFE-lined equipment.
