equipment used to control exposure, e.g. personal protective
equipment, local exhaust ventilation.
Drain down system prior to equipment break-in or mainte-
nance.
Retain drain downs in sealed storage pending disposal or
subsequent recycle.
Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as
washing hands after handling the material and before eating,
drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and
protective equipment to remove contaminants. Discard con-
taminated clothing and footwear that cannot be cleaned.
Practice good housekeeping.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection : No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under normal
conditions of use.
In accordance with good industrial hygiene practices, precau-
tions should be taken to avoid breathing of material.
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentra-
tions to a level which is adequate to protect worker health,
select respiratory protection equipment suitable for the spe-
cific conditions of use and meeting relevant legislation.
Check with respiratory protective equipment suppliers.
Where air-filtering respirators are suitable, select an appro-
priate combination of mask and filter.
Select a filter suitable for the combination of organic gases
and vapours [Type A/Type P boiling point >65°C (149°F)].
Hand protection
Remarks : Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of
gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374,
US: F739) made from the following materials may provide
suitable chemical protection. PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber
gloves Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on
usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical re-
sistance of glove material, dexterity. Always seek advice from
glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced.
Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.
Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using
gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Appli-
cation of a non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended.
For continuous contact we recommend gloves with break-
through time of more than 240 minutes with preference for >
480 minutes where suitable gloves can be identified. For
short-term/splash protection we recommend the same, but
recognize that suitable gloves offering this level of protection
may not be available and in this case a lower breakthrough
time maybe acceptable so long as appropriate maintenance
and replacement regimes are followed. Glove thickness is not
a good predictor of glove resistance to a chemical as it is
dependent on the exact composition of the glove material.
Glove thickness should be typically greater than 0.35 mm
