achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. If these
are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates and solvent vapour below
the OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
Personal protective equipment:
Respiratory protection: When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must
use appropriate certified respirators.
Eye protection: safety glasses
Hand protection: solvent-resistant gloves
Skin and body protection: Remove and wash contaminated clothing and gloves, including the inside,
before re-use. flame retardant antistatic protective clothing
Hygiene measures: Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Wash hands before breaks and at
the end of workday.
Exposure controls:
National occupational exposure limits
Worksafe TWA: None established for the formulated product.
benzoyl peroxide: Worksafe TWA = 5 mg/m3; (1995)
