Exposure controls:
Appropriate engineering controls:
Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the
permissible exposure limits.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment:
Eye / face protection
Chemical tight goggles; full faceshield in addition if splashing is possible.
Skin protection
Body protection: Impervious gloves if any possibility of skin contact with liquid. Additional
protection may be required such as apron, arm covers, or full body suit, depending upon
conditions.
Hand protection: Wear leather gloves to prevent frostbite injuries from rapidly expanding gas
when handling pressurised gas bottles.
Respiratory protection
Not normally needed if controls are adequate. If needed, use MSHA-
NIOSH approved
respirator for organic vapors. For high concentrations and oxygen-deficient atmospheres, use
positive pressure air-supplied respirator.
General hygiene
considerations
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating,
smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Keep away from
foodstuffs, beverages and feed. Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.
