Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING
■ - Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation.
- Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs.
- Use in a well-ventilated area.
- Prevent concentration in hollows and sumps.
SUITABLE CONTAINER
■ - Metal can or drum
- Packaging as recommended by manufacturer.
- Check all containers are clearly labelled and free from leaks.
STORAGE INCOMPATIBILITY
■ For benzoyl peroxide:
- Avoid reaction with acids, alkalis, oxidising and reducing agents, metals and metal oxides, and combustible materials.
- Amines and solutions of cobalt salts used as promoters and accelerators in polyester compounds if mixed with benzoyl peroxide
will cause spontaneous decomposition (detonation).
- Alkalis cause rapid decomposition of benzoyl peroxide with generation of large volumes of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) and may
pressurise containers.
- Avoid contact with copper, brass, lead and zinc.
- Avoid reaction with oxidising agents.
STORAGE REQUIREMENTS
■ - Store in original containers.
- Keep containers securely sealed.
- Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.
- Store away from incompatible materials and foodstuff containers.
Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
EXPOSURE CONTROLS
Source
MATERIAL DATA
POWERS AC100E PART B:
■ For benzoyl peroxide:The recommendation for the TLV-TWA is based on the absence of subjective symptoms of irritation of the nose and throat in humans exposed to 5.25 mg/m3. Whether this is sufficiently low to prevent cumulative effects in man is not known.
■ Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on the eyes, nose or throat.
Historically occupational exposure standards for these irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to variousairborne concentrations.
The mist is considered to be a nuisance particulate which appears to have little adverse effect on the lung and does not produce significant organic disease or toxic effects. OSHA concluded that the nuisance particulate limit would protect the workerform kidney damage and perhaps, testicular effects.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATOR
•Type A-P Filter of sufficient capacity. (AS/NZS 1716 & 1715, EN 143:2000 & 149:2001, ANSI Z88 or national equivalent)
EYE
■ - Safety glasses with side shields.
- Chemical goggles.
- Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document,
describing the wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a review
of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account of injury experience. Medical and first-aid
personnel should be trained in their removal and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical

exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the firstsigns of eye redness or irritation - lens should be removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed handsthoroughly. [CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59], [AS/NZS 1336 or national equivalent].
HANDS/FEET
■ - Wear chemical protective gloves, e.g. PVC.
- Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, e.g. Rubber.
NOTE:
- The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must be taken, when removing gloves and other
protective equipment, to avoid all possible skin contact.
- Contaminated leather items, such as shoes, belts and watch-bands should be removed and destroyed.
OTHER
■ - Overalls.
- P.V.C. apron.
- Barrier cream.
- Skin cleansing cream.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
■ Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed
engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to
provide this high level of protection.
The basic types of engineering controls are:
Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.
Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and ventilation
that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
EYE
■ There is some evidence to suggest that this material can cause eye irritation and damage in some persons.
SKIN
■ There is some evidence to suggest that this material can cause inflammation of the skin on contact in some persons.
All organic peroxides are irritating to the skin and if allowed to remain on the skin, may produce inflammation; some are
allergenic.
INHALED
■ The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract (as classified by EC
Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that
suitable control measures be used in an occupational setting.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
■ Skin contact with the material is more likely to cause a sensitisation reaction in some persons compared to the general
population.
There is some evidence that inhaling this product is more likely to cause a sensitisation reaction in some persons compared to
the general population.
Prolonged or repeated skin contact with benzoyl peroxide may result in allergic skin reactions even at diluted concentrations.
Ingestion results in abdominal pain, low body oxygen and severe depression. Chronic effects of exposure include allergic
reactions characterised by redness, itching, oozing, crusting, and scaling of the skin and asthmatic wheezing. Although it does
not exhibit complete carcinogenic or tumour-initiating activity, it has been associated with certain tumours of like papillomas
and squamous cell carcinomas.
