SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls:
Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering
controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Good general ventilation should be
sufficient to control airborne levels. Where such systems are not effective wear suitable personal protective
equipment, which performs satisfactorily and meets OSHA or other recognized standards. Consult with local
procedures for selection, training, inspection and maintenance of the personal protective equipment.
Eye/Face Protection:
Wear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR 1910.133, OSHA eye and face
protection regulation, or the European standard EN 166.
Skin Protection Description:
Chemical-resistant gloves and chemical goggles, face-shield and synthetic apron or coveralls should be used to
prevent contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
Respiratory Protection:
A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be permissible under
certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided
by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an
uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators
may not provide adequate protection.
Other Protective:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower.
