be followed. Where misting may occur, wear an MSHA/NIOSH approved (or equivalent) half‐mask form
dust/mist air purifying respirator.
8.3. Eye protection:
8.3.1. Eye protection is recommended. If material is handled such that it could be splashed into the eyes ‐ or
there is any concern, wear safety glasses with side shields or vented/splash proof goggles (ANSI Z87.1 or
approved equivalent).
8.4. Hand protection:
8.4.1. Impervious gloves such as neoprene or nitrile rubber to avoid skin sensitization and absorption.
8.5. Other protection:
8.5.1. Use of an apron and over boots of chemically impervious materials such as neoprene or nitrile rubber is
recommended to avoid skin sensitization and absorption. If handling hot material use insulated protective
equipment. Launder soiled clothes. Properly dispose of contaminated leather articles and other materials
which cannot be decontaminated.
8.6. Local control measures:
8.6.1. Use adequate ventilation when working with material in an enclosed area. Mechanical methods such as
fume hoods or area fans may be used to reduce localized vapor/mist areas. If vapor or mist is generated
when the material handled, adequate ventilation in accordance with good engineering practice must be
provided to maintain concentrations below the specified exposure. Eyewash stations and showers should
be available in areas where this material is used and stored.
8.7. Other:
8.7.1. Consumption of food and drink should be avoided in work areas where product is present. Always wash
hands and face with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking.
