8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Use a properly fitted, air-purifying or air-fed respirator complying with an approved 
standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be 
based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe 
working limits of the selected respirator.
Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk 
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists or 
dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless the 
assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: chemical splash goggles.
Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being 
performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before 
handling this product.
When there is a risk of ignition from static electricity, wear anti-static protective clothing.
For the greatest protection from static discharges, clothing should include anti-static 
overalls, boots and gloves.

Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be 
worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is 
necessary. Considering the parameters specified by the glove manufacturer, check 
during use that the gloves are still retaining their protective properties. It should be 
noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may be different for different 
glove manufacturers. In the case of mixtures, consisting of several substances, the 
protection time of the gloves cannot be accurately estimated.
Hands

Hygiene measures
:
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before 
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety 
showers are close to the workstation location.
Environmental exposure 
controls
:
Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure 
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some 
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment 
will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
