Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters:

Control banding approach: OEB 3 - Sensitizer, Corrosive (control exposure to the range of 10 μg/m3 to < 100 μg/m3, provide additional precautions to protect from skin contact)

Exposure controls:

Appropriate engineering controls: Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation. Keep air contamination levels below the exposure limits or within the OEB range listed above in this section. Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Eye wash facilities and emergency shower must be available when handling this product.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment:

General information: Use personal protective equipment as required. Personal protection equipment should be chosen according to the CEN standards and in discussion with the supplier of the personal protective equipment.
