Ventiliation: of non-sparking or intrinsically safe ventilation systems and
equipment if explosive concentrations of material are pres-
ent. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure limits.
Wear safety glasses with side shields as a minimum level of
protection. If splash or splatter is possible, wear chemical/
splash resistant safety goggles and or face shield. Emer-
Eye Protection: gency eye wash station and quick drench shower should be
provided in the immediate work area as per the ANSI Z358.1
guidelines.

Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves for type of expo-
Gloves: sure. (Butyl or nitrile glove are resistant to incidental contact
with toluene)
Refer to 29CFR1910.134 for selection of appropriate
respiratory protection. Organic vapor cartridge with a 陆 or
full face mask, where toluene vapors do not exceed the
Respirator: assigned protection factor for the respirator. For unknown
concentrations or IDLH atmospheres wear self-contained
