Engineering measures : 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.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection : Use respiratory protection unless adequate local exhaust
ventilation is provided or exposure assessment demonstrates
that exposures are within recommended exposure guidelines.

Hand protection

Remarks : Rubber gloves Neoprene gloves The exact break through

time can be obtained from the protective glove producer and
this has to be observed.

Eye protection : Safety glasses with side-shields

Face-shield

Skin and body protection : Wear suitable protective clothing.

Protective measures : Ensure that eye flushing systems and safety showers are
located close to the working place.

Hygiene measures : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety
practice.
