8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

8.1 Control parameters

Components with workplace control parameters
Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values.

8.2 Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering controls
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at
the end of workday.
Personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166 Use equipment for eye protection tested and
approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin protection
For any handling steps where the substance is in particulate form or in a suspension with pure water
where the substance is not solubilized, the gloves must be comprised of material that successfully passes
ASTM F-1671. For any handling steps where the substance is part of a carrier liquid, other than the
aqueous suspension noted in the previous paragraph, gloves must be comprised of material that
successfully passes ASTM F-739 (continuous liquid contact method). Gloves must be changed before
they show degradation and before the designated breakthrough time for the carrier liquid (as determined
by the ASTM F-739 testing or by the manufacturer). Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior
to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact
with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good
laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.
Body Protection
Impervious clothing, The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration
and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.
Respiratory protection
The EPA mandates the use of full face respirators with minimum N100 grade cartridges if there is any risk
of exposure to the dust. For nuisance exposures use type P95 (US) or type P1 (EU EN 143) particle
respirator. For higher level protection use type OV/AG/P99 (US) or type ABEK-P2 (EU EN 143) respirator
cartridges. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government
standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Control of environmental exposure
Do not let product enter drains.
