Appropriate engineering controls:
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.
Individual protection measures:
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.
