Appropriate engineering controls 

Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Use explosion-proof  

electrical/ventilating/lighting/equipment. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the  workstation location. 

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).
