Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.
Minimize workplace exposure concentrations.
Dust formation may be relevant in the processing of this
product. In addition to substance-specific OELs, general
limitations of concentrations of particulates in the air at
workplaces have to be considered in workplace risk
assessment. Relevant limits include: OSHA PEL for
Particulates Not Otherwise Regulated of 15 mg/m3 - total
dust, 5 mg/m3 - respirable fraction; and ACGIH TWA for
Particles (insoluble or poorly soluble) Not Otherwise
Specified of 3 mg/m3 - respirable particles, 10 mg/m3 inhalable particles.
General and local exhaust ventilation is recommended to
maintain vapor exposures below recommended limits. Where
concentrations are above recommended limits or are
unknown, appropriate respiratory protection should be worn.
Follow OSHA respirator regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) and
use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators. Protection provided
by air purifying respirators against exposure to any
hazardous chemical is limited. Use a positive pressure air
supplied respirator if there is any potential for uncontrolled
release, exposure levels are unknown, or any other
circumstance where air purifying respirators may not provide
adequate protection.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
Wear the following personal protective equipment:
Safety glasses
Skin should be washed after contact.
Ensure that eye flushing systems and safety showers are
located close to the working place.
When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
