All chemical materials require careful handling and storage. They can be toxic, harmful to health, caustic, irritating, highly flammable, and cause harmful fumes, fumes, and dust.
The effects of such chemicals at elevated concentrations may be immediate or delayed, short-term or chronic, cumulative, superficial, life-threatening, and may even shorten life expectancy.
Chemical Materials - Prescriptions
- Carefully read and follow the safety instructions given on the labels of containers (containers) with chemicals and in accompanying brochures, inserts and other documents. Documentation on health and safety when working with such substances is available from the manufacturers.
- Remove chemicals from skin and clothing as quickly as possible. Remove heavily soiled clothing and clean it.
- Organize your work process and use protective clothing to avoid chemicals coming into contact with your skin and eyes.
- Avoid breathing vapors, mists, dust or fumes.; fire and explosion hazard. Ensure chemical containers are properly labelled.
- When handling chemicals, be sure to wash before taking a break from work, eating, smoking, drinking, or using the toilet.
- Keep the work area clean and tidy. Avoid spilling or spilling chemicals.
- Store chemicals in accordance with state and local regulations.
- Keep chemicals out of reach of children.
Chemical Materials - Prohibitions
- Do not mix chemicals unless directed by the manufacturer.; some chemicals, when mixed, can form other toxic or harmful substances, release toxic or hazardous fumes during a chemical reaction, or cause an explosive mixture.
- Do not spray chemicals, especially solvent-based ones, in confined spaces, such as when there are people in the vehicle.
- Do not expose chemicals to heat or fire unless provided for in the manufacturer's instructions. Some of them are highly flammable, and some can emit toxic or unhealthy fumes.
- Do not leave containers open. The vapors released may reach maximum permissible concentrations: there is a danger to health, life or explosion. Some vapors are heavier than air and will accumulate in confined spaces, pits, etc.
- Do not transport chemicals in containers that are not properly labeled.
- Do not use chemicals to clean your hands or clothes. They, especially solvents and fuels, dry the skin and can cause irritation, leading to dermatitis. In addition, chemicals can be absorbed through the skin into the body in dangerous quantities.
- Do not use empty containers for storing other materials unless the containers have been cleaned under proper supervision.
- Do not sniff chemical materials. Even short-term inhalation of concentrated vapors can cause poisoning and harm the body.
Anti-corrosion materials
Some corrosion protection materials are flammable - please observe smoking precautions: NO SMOKING!
These materials have different characteristics, so it is always necessary to follow the manufacturer's instructions. These materials may contain solvents, rubber or petroleum products. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Spray only with adequate ventilation and never in confined spaces.
