Eye/face protection
Select and use eye/face protection to prevent contact based on the results of an exposure assessment. The following eye/face
protection(s) are recommended:
Full Face Shield
Indirect Vented Goggles
Skin/hand protection
No chemical protective gloves are required.
Respiratory protection
An exposure assessment may be needed to decide if a respirator is required. If a respirator is needed, use respirators as part
of a full respiratory protection program. Based on the results of the exposure assessment, select from the following
respirator type(s) to reduce inhalation exposure:
Half facepiece or full facepiece air-purifying respirator suitable for organic vapours and particulates
Half facepiece or full facepiece supplied-air respirator
Organic vapor respirators may have short service life.
For questions about suitability for a specific application, consult with your respirator manufacturer.

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use by emergency response personnel to address
the hazards that are presented by short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or similar
emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the inherent physical and toxic properties of the material but also include
the toxic properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be generated in significant quantities.

Hazardous Material Identification System (HMIS® IV) hazard ratings are designed to inform employees of chemical hazards
in the workplace. These ratings are based on the inherent properties of the material under expected conditions of normal use
and are not intended for use in emergency situations. HMIS® IV ratings are to be used with a fully implemented HMIS® IV
program. HMIS® is a registered mark of the American Coatings Association (ACA).
