EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION National Exposure Standards No exposure standard has been establishes fir this product by the Australain Safety and Compensation Council (ASCC) Biological Limit Values No information available on biological limit values for this product. Engineering Controls. A system of local and / or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emission of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Use a flame proof exhaust ventilation system. PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT Respirator: Wear an approved respirator with Type A Organic vapour and dust/mist filter if engineering controls are inadequate (AS1715/1716). Eye protection: Chemical splash goggles (AS1336/1337). Hands: PVC or rubber gloved (AS2161). Other protective equipment: Wear impervious coveralls and anti-static footwear (AS3765/2210).
