8.2. Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls
:
Use ventilation adequate to keep exposures (airborne levels of dust, fume, vapor, etc.) below
recommended exposure limits. Use wet methods, if appropriate, to reduce the generation of dust.
Hand protection
:
Wear chemically resistant protective gloves.
Eye protection
:
Wear eye protection.
Skin and body protection
:
Wear suitable protective clothing.
