Exposure controls/personal protection

Exposure controls
Appropriate Engineering Provide adequate ventilation.
Controls:

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

General information: Provide easy access to water supply and eye wash facilities. Good general
ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation
rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process
enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure
limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable
level. Follow training instructions when handling this material.

Eye/face protection: Safety goggles. EN 166.
