FOREIGN MATERIALS FROM BEING SUCKED BACK INTO CYLINDER BECAUSE THIS CAN CAUSE
THE DEVELOPMENT OF DANGEROUS PRESSURES.
Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this chemical.
SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is
conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend
not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the
substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye
protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be
individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the
wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases,
contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection
equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.
The worker should immediately wash the skin when it becomes contaminated.
/Solution/
Work clothing that becomes wet or significantly contaminated should be
removed and replaced.
