Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🏭 Engineering Controls
No special requirements under ordinary conditions of use and with adequate ventilation. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
🧤 Hand Protection
Material: Chemical resistant gloves
👁️ Eye Protection
Use personal protective equipment as required.
😷 Respiratory Protection
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not been established), an approved respirator must be worn.
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
Wear suitable protective clothing.
