8.2. Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering Good general ventilation should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If
controls 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.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
General information Personal protection equipment should be chosen according to the CEN standards and in
discussion with the supplier of the personal protective equipment.
Eye/face protection Face shield is recommended. Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Skin protection
- Hand protection Use protective gloves made of: Nitrile. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- Other Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory protection In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.

Hygiene measures Keep away from food and drink. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as
washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash
work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants.
Environmental exposure Good general ventilation should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If
controls 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.
