Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls.
Chemical-resistant gloves should be worn whenever this material is handled. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product. Gloves should be removed and replaced immediately if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough. Rinse and remove gloves immediately after use. All glove recommendations presume that the risk of exposure is through splash and not intentional immersion of the hands into the product. Since glove permeation data does not exist for this material, no recommendation for the glove material can be given for the product. Permiation data must be obtained from the glove manufacturer to determine if the glove is suitable for the task.
The use of eye protection in the form of safety glasses with side shields are considered minimum and non-discretionary in work places and laboratories.
The use of skin protection for hands in the form of gloves are considered minimum and non-discretionary in work places and laboratories. Chemical-resistant gloves should be worn whenever this material is handled.
