EXPOSURE CONTROLS
1. Appropriate engineering controls
- Ensure adequate ventilation.
- Refer to protective measures listed in sections "HANDLING AND STORAGE".
- Apply technical measures to comply with the occupational exposure limits.
2. Individual protection measures
2.1. Respiratory protection
- Use respirator when performing operations involving potential exposure to vapour of the product.
- The filter class for the respirator must be suitable for the maximum expected contaminant concentration (gas/vapour/aerosol/particulates) that may arise when handling the product. If this concentration is exceeded, self-contained breathing apparatus must be used.
- Remove respiratory and skin/eye protection only after vapours have been cleared from the area.
- Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards.
2.2. Hand protection
- Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
- Rubber gloves
- Neoprene gloves
- Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact).
2.3. Eye protection
- Tightly fitting safety goggles
2.4. Skin and body protection
- Long sleeved clothing
- Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the specific work-place.
2.5. Hygiene measures
- Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
- When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
- Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
- Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
3. Environmental exposure controls
- Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations.

Hazardous decomposition products
- Gaseous hydrogen fluoride (HF), Fluorophosgene, Carbon oxides
Disposal considerations
Waste disposal methods
- Can be incinerated, when in compliance with local regulations.
- The incinerator must be equipped with a system for the neutralisation or recovery of HF.
- In accordance with local and national regulations.
