PERSONAL PROTECTION
Personal protective equipment selections vary based on potential exposure conditions such as applica-
tions, handling practices, concentration and ventilation. Information on the selection of protective
equipment for use with this material, as provided below, is based upon intended, normal usage.
Respiratory Protection: If engineering controls do not maintain airborne contaminant concentrations
at a level which is adequate to protect worker health, an approved respirator may be appropriate. Respi-
rator selection, use, and maintenance must be in accordance with regulatory requirements, if applicable.
Types of respirators to be considered for this material include:
No special requirements under ordinary conditions of use and with adequate ventilation.
For high airborne concentrations, use an approved supplied-air respirator, operated in positive pressure
mode. Supplied air respirators with an escape bottle may be appropriate when oxygen levels are inade-
quate, gas/vapor warning properties are poor, or if air purifying filter capacity/rating may be exceeded.
Hand Protection: Any specific glove information provided is based on published literature and glove
manufacturer data. Work conditions can greatly effect glove durability; inspect and replace worn or
damaged gloves. The types of gloves to be considered for this material include:
No protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use.
Eye Protection: If contact is likely, safety glasses with side shields are recommended.
Skin and Body Protection: Any specific clothing information provided is based on published litera-
ture or manufacturer data. The types of clothing to be considered for this material include:
No skin protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use. In accordance with
good industrial hygiene practices, precautions should be taken to avoid skin contact.
Specific Hygiene Measures: Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after
handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and
protective equipment to remove contaminants. Discard contaminated clothing and footwear that cannot
be cleaned. Practice good housekeeping.
