8-EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls
Use sufficient ventilation to keep employee exposure below recommended limits.
Personal Protective Equipment
For Exposure to Dry Material
Eye/Face Protection:
Wear safety glasses or coverall chemical splash goggles
Respirators:
A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an appropriate particulate cartridge or canister may be permissible
under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection
provided by air-purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air-supplied respirator if there is any potential
for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air-purifying
respirators may not provide adequate protection.
Protective Clothing:
Where there is potential for skin contact, have available and wear as appropriate impervious gloves, apron, pants
and jacket.
For Exposure To Solutions:
Eye/Face Protection: Wear coverall chemical splash goggles. Additionally wear a face shield where the possibility
exists for face contact due to splashing or spraying of material.
Respirators: A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an appropriate particulate cartridge or canister may be
permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits.
Protection provided by air-purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air-supplied respirator if there is
any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air-
purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
Protective Clothing:
Where there is potential for skin contact, wear impervious clothing such as gloves, apron, boots or whole bodysuit.
