EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure limits are listed below, if they exist.
ACGIH TLV: 5000 ppm (9000 mg/m
3
) STEL: 30,000 ppm (54,000 mg/m

)
OSHA PEL: 5000 ppm (9000 mg/m
3
)
Appropriate engineering controls
Use with adequate ventilation (natural or mechanical), especially in a confined space.
Individual protection measures
Not normally required. In oxygen deficient atmospheres, use a self contained breathing apparatus, as an
air purifying respirator will not provide protection.
Chemical goggles or safety glasses with side shields.
