8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

---

ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Safety shower and eye bath. Mechanical exhaust required. Use
nonsparking tools.
GENERAL HYGIENE MEASURES
Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash thoroughly after
handling.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Respiratory Protection: Use respirators and components tested and
approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US)
or CEN (EU). Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators
are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose
combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as
a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole
means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator.
