Avoid contact with skin. Store away from foodstuffs. Store away from strong alkalis and chlorinated products. Store in original containers. Polyethylene or polypropylene containers are suitable. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION National Exposure Standards Biological Limit Values Engineering Controls Respiratory Protection Eye Protection Hand Protection Body Protection Use local exhaust if misting occurs. Natural ventilation is adequate in absence of mists or dust. The measures appropriate for a particular worksite depends on how this material is used and on the extent of exposure. Use this general information to help develop specific control measures. Ensure that control systems are properly designed and maintained and comply with occupational, environmental, fire, and other applicable regulations. No biological limit allocated. A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Adequate ventilation should be provided so that exposure limits are not exceeded. Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate, use a full-face particle respirator. Safety glasses with side shields or chemical goggles. Wear chemical resistant gloves, e.g. PVC. Wear overalls. 9.
