Protective measures

Gloves

Based on the safety data sheet recommendations for handling photopolymer resins:

  • Nitrile: very good - chemical resistant, impervious gloves recommended for handling acrylate resins.
  • Butyl rubber: good - chemical resistant gloves suitable for extended contact.
  • Natural latex or rubber: poor (not recommended) - not suitable for handling methacrylate compounds.
  • Viton™: very good - excellent chemical resistance.

Safety goggles

  • Always wear safety glasses or goggles when handling this product.
  • Use eye protection equipment that has been tested and approved by recognized national standards.
  • Corrective glasses are not considered safety goggles.

Clothing

  • Wear chemical resistant protective clothing.
  • Long sleeves and full-length pants required.
  • Avoid skin contact - remove contaminated clothing immediately.
  • Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
  • Do not allow contaminated work clothing out of the workplace.

Respiratory protection

  • Use with adequate ventilation.
  • If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below applicable limits, wear approved respirator.
  • Emergency eye wash stations and safety showers should be available.

Spill management

  • Evacuate unnecessary personnel and ventilate area.
  • Extinguish any sources of ignition.
  • Wear recommended personal protective equipment.
  • Stop leak if safe to do so.
  • Prevent from reaching drains, sewers and waterways.
  • Contain and collect spillage and place in suitable container for disposal.
  • Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
  • Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing.
  • Dispose according to local hazardous waste regulations.

Special warnings

  • May cause allergic skin reaction - skin sensitization can occur, discontinue use if sensitization develops.
  • Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects - prevent release to environment.
  • Avoid exposure to light and heat - store below 38°C (100°F) away from direct sunlight.
  • Incompatible with peroxides, strong oxidizing agents, alcohols, copper, and strong bases.
  • Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.
  • Use only in well-ventilated areas.
