Individual Protection Measures, such as Personal Protective Equipment
Eye/Face Protection: If splashes are likely to occur, wear: Safety glasses with side shields.
Skin and Body Protection: Wear gloves that are impervious to chemical penetration.
Respiratory Protection: No protective equipment is needed under normal use conditions. If exposure limits are
exceeded or irritation is experienced, NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection should
be worn.
Hygiene Measures: Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after
handling. Avoid breathing vapors.
