The PPE recommendations below are based on an assessment of the chemical hazards associated with this product. Where this product is used in a mixture with other products or fluids, additional hazards may be created and as such further assessment of risk may be required. The risk of exposure and need of respiratory protection will vary from workplace to workplace and should be assessed by the user in each situation. Engineering measures to reduce exposure Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Personal protective equipment Eye protection Tightly fitting safety goggles. Hand protection Wear chemical resistant gloves such as nitrile or neoprene. Respiratory protection All respiratory protection equipment should be used within a comprehensive respiratory protection program that meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.134 (U.S. OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard) or local equivalent. If exposed to airborne particles of this product use at least a NIOSH-approved N95 half-mask disposable or re-useable particulate respirator. In work environments containing oil mist/aerosol use at least a NIOSH-approved P95 half-mask disposable or re-useable particulate respirator. Skin and body protection Wear suitable protective clothing and gloves. Hygiene measures Exercise reasonable care and cleanliness, Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product. 9.
