SECTION 8: Exposure Controls/personal protection

8.1. Control parameters

Occupational exposure limits
Aluminium (Al-soluble salt) WES-TWA : 2 mg/ m3

8.2. Exposure controls

Protective equipment

Appropriate engineering Provide adequate ventilation. Personal, workplace environment or biological monitoring may
controls be required to determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control measures and/or
the necessity to use respiratory protective equipment. Use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation or other engineering controls as the primary means to minimise worker exposure.
Personal protective equipment should only be used if worker exposure cannot be controlled
adequately by the engineering control measures. Ensure control measures are regularly
inspected and maintained. Ensure operatives are trained to minimise exposure.

Eye/face protection Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates
eye contact is possible. Personal protective equipment for eye and face protection should
comply with European Standard EN166. Wear tight-fitting, chemical splash goggles or face
shield. If inhalation hazards exist, a full-face respirator may be required instead.

Hand protection Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if
a risk assessment indicates skin contact is possible. The most suitable glove should be
chosen in consultation with the glove supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information
about the breakthrough time of the glove material. To protect hands from chemicals, gloves
should comply with European Standard EN374. Considering the data specified by the glove
manufacturer, check during use that the gloves are retaining their protective properties and
change them as soon as any deterioration is detected. Frequent changes are recommended.

Other skin and body Appropriate footwear and additional protective clothing complying with an approved standard
protection should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contamination is possible.

Hygiene measures Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Contaminated work clothing should not be
allowed out of the workplace. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Clean equipment
and the work area every day. Good personal hygiene procedures should be implemented.
Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. When
using do not eat, drink or smoke. Preventive industrial medical examinations should be carried
out. Warn cleaning personnel of any hazardous properties of the product.

Respiratory protection Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk
assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible. Ensure all respiratory protective
equipment is suitable for its intended use and is ‘CE’-marked. Check that the respirator fits
tightly and the filter is changed regularly. Gas and combination filter cartridges should comply
with European Standard EN14387. Full face mask respirators with replaceable filter cartridges
should comply with European Standard EN136. Half mask and quarter mask respirators with
replaceable filter cartridges should comply with European Standard EN140.

Environmental exposure Keep container tightly sealed when not in use. Emissions from ventilation or work process
controls 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.
