Biological exposure indices
Ingredient name Exposure indices
No exposure indices known.
Recommended monitoring If this product contains ingredients with exposure limits, personal, workplace
procedures atmosphere or biological monitoring may be required to determine the effectiveness
of the ventilation or other control measures and/or the necessity to use respiratory
protective equipment. Reference should be made to appropriate monitoring
standards. Reference to national guidance documents for methods for the
determination of hazardous substances will also be required.
Appropriate engineering Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the relevant
controls airborne concentrations below their respective occupational exposure limits.
All activities involving chemicals should be assessed for their risks to health, to
ensure exposures are adequately controlled. Personal protective equipment should
only be considered after other forms of control measures (e.g. engineering controls)
have been suitably evaluated. Personal protective equipment should conform to
appropriate standards, be suitable for use, be kept in good condition and properly
maintained.

Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Your supplier of personal protective equipment should be consulted for advice on
selection and appropriate standards. For further information contact your national
organisation for standards.
The final choice of protective equipment will depend upon a risk assessment. It is
important to ensure that all items of personal protective equipment are compatible.
Environmental exposure Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
controls 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.
Individual protection measures
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.
Eye protection Safety glasses with side shields.
Skin protection
Hand protection Wear protective gloves if prolonged or repeated contact is likely. Wear chemical
resistant gloves. Recommended: Nitrile gloves. The correct choice of protective
gloves depends upon the chemicals being handled, the conditions of work and use,
and the condition of the gloves (even the best chemically resistant glove will break
down after repeated chemical exposures). Most gloves provide only a short time of
protection before they must be discarded and replaced. Because specific work
environments and material handling practices vary, safety procedures should be
developed for each intended application. Gloves should therefore be chosen in
consultation with the supplier/manufacturer and with a full assessment of the
working conditions.
Skin protection Use of protective clothing is good industrial practice.
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.
Cotton or polyester/cotton overalls will only provide protection against light
superficial contamination that will not soak through to the skin. Overalls should be
laundered on a regular basis. When the risk of skin exposure is high (e.g. when
cleaning up spillages or if there is a risk of splashing) then chemical resistant aprons
and/or impervious chemical suits and boots will be required.
Other skin protection Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be
selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be
approved by a specialist before handling this product.
Respiratory protection In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
For protection against metal working fluids, respiratory protection that is classified as
“resistant to oil” (class R) or oil proof (class P) should be selected where appropriate.
Depending on the level of airborne contaminants, an air-purifying, half-mask
respirator (with HEPA filter) including disposable (P- or R-series) (for oil mists less
than 50mg/m3), or any powered, air-purifying respirator equipped with hood or
helmet and HEPA filter (for oil mists less than 125 mg/m3).
Where organic vapours are a potential hazard during metalworking operations, a
combination particulate and organic vapour filter may be necessary.
The correct choice of respiratory protection depends upon the chemicals being
handled, the conditions of work and use, and the condition of the respiratory
equipment. Safety procedures should be developed for each intended application.
Respiratory protection equipment should therefore be chosen in consultation with
the supplier/manufacturer and with a full assessment of the working conditions.
