VENTILATION
TO BE USED:
Respiratory Protection:
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
Provide adequate exhaust ventilation (general and / or local) if necessary to meet exposure requirements.
Local exhaust ventilation is preferred to minimize dispersion of smoke and fumes into the work area.
Protective Gloves: Wear rubber or cloth gloves to avoid skin
contact.
Eye Protection:
Other Protective Clothing and Equipment:
