Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Unvented, tight fitting goggles should be worn in dusty areas.
Skin protection
Hand protection
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Other
Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory protection
Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if there is a risk of exposure to dust/fume at levels
exceeding the exposure limits. 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.
Thermal hazards
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
General hygiene
considerations
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.
