DIMETHYLOCTANOL's Handling and Storage Information
IRRITANT. Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Mechanical exhaust required. When not in use, tightly seal the
container and store in a dry, cool place. Avoid excessive heat and light. DO NOT ingest. Do not breathe gas, fumes,
vapor or spray. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. If ingested, seek medical advice
immediately and show the container or the label. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes.
Always store away from incompatible compounds such as oxidizing agents.
