Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose
combination (US) or type AXBEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator
is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested and
approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Hand protection
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique to avoid skin contact
with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use. Select gloves tested to the ANSI/ISEA 105-2011 or
European EN374 Standard.
Full contact: Nitrile rubber
Splash contact: Nitrile rubber
This recommendation is advisory only and must be evaluated by an industrial hygienist and safety officer familiar with
the specific situation of anticipated use. It should not be construed as offering an approval for any specific use scenario.
Eye protection
Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government
standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin and body protection
Impervious clothing, Flame retardant antistatic protective clothing, The type of protective equipment must be selected
according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
