Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering measures

Engineering measures:       Use with local exhaust ventilation.

                                                    Adequate general ventilation is recommended when handling to control airborne levels.

                                                    Use mechanical ventilation for general area control.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection:       Safety glasses with side-shields

                                                    or

                                                    Safety goggles

Hand protection:       PVC or other plastic material gloves

Skin and body protection:       For personal hygiene purposes, use adequate clothing to prevent skin contact.

Respiratory protection:       Respirator must be worn if exposed to dust.

                                                    Respirator with a dust filter

Hygiene measures:       Wash thoroughly after handling.

                                                    Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
