Skin Protection
Wear resistant gloves such as: natural rubber.
Respiratory Protections
If overexposure has been determined or documented, a NIOSH/MSHA jointly
approved air supplied respirator is advised in absence of proper environmental
control. OSHA regulations also permit other NIOSH/MSHA respirators under
specified conditions. (See your safety equipment supplier.) Engineering or
administrative controls should be implemented to reduce exposure.
Engineering Controls
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to
maintain exposure below level of overexposure (from known, suspected or
apparent adverse effects).
