Appropriate engineering controls
Engineering Controls
Apply technical measures to comply with the occupational exposure limits. Eyewash stations. Showers.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/Face Protection
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield.
Skin and Body Protection
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin
contact.
Respiratory
If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, a full-face respirator with an acid gas cartridge and
particulate filter (NIOSH type N100 filter) may be worn up to 50 times the exposure limit, or the maximum use concentration
specified by the appropriate regulatory agency or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting
fluids, glycerin, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P particulate filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure
levels are not known, use a full-face shield positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air purifying respirators do not
protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. Where respirators are required, you must have a written program covering
the basic requirements in the OSHA respirator standard. These include training, fit testing, medical approval, cleaning,
maintenance, cartridge change schedules, etc. See 29CFR1910.134 for details.
General Hygiene Considerations
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. After handling this product, wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking. If
contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing. If needed, take first aid action shown on section 4 of this SDS. Launder
contaminated clothing before reuse.
