Appropriate engineering controls
Engineering Controls Provide sufficient general &/or local exhaust ventilation to maintain exposure below
recommended exposure limits. Vapors are heavier than air & may spread along floors.
Provide fresh air entry during application & curing. Eye wash fountain should be located in
immediate work area.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/Face Protection Use approved safety goggles or safety glasses. If necessary, refer to appropriate
regulations & standards.
Skin and Body Protection Skin: Wear chemical impervious gloves (eg: Nitrile or Neoprene). Use triple gloves for spill
response. If necessary, refer to appropriate regulations & standards.
Body: Use protection appropriate for task (eg: lab coat, coveralls, Tyvek suit). If necessary,
refer to OSHA Technical Manual (Sec. VII: Personal Protective Equipment)or appropriate
Standards of Canada. Use foot protection, as described in appropriate regulations &
standards.
Respiratory Protection If watering of eyes experienced, headache or dizziness or if used in workplace & air
monitoring indicates vapor levels above exposure limits, use NIOSH approved respiratory
protection in accordance w/ Federal, State & Local requirements. Consult safety equipment
supplier & OSHA Regulation 29 CFR 1910.134 for respirator requirements.
General Hygiene Considerations Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Remove & wash
contaminated clothing before reuse. Wash hands before breaks & @ end of workday.
