Skin protection
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Hand protection
Skin protection
Wear suitable protective clothing.
Other
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. Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator
if there is a risk of exposure to dust/fume at levels exceeding the exposure limits.
Respiratory protection
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
Thermal hazards
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.
