Exposure controls / personal protection

· Additional information about design of technical facilities: No further data; see section Handling and storage.

· Control parameters Use in closed process, no likelihood of exposure

· Ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: Not required.

· Additional information: Based on lists valid at date of MSDS creation.

· Exposure controls

· Personal protective equipment:

· General protective and hygienic measures:

  Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.

  Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.

  Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.

  Store protective clothing separately.

· Respiratory protection:

  Self-contained respiratory protective device.

  Filter P3

· Protection of hands:

  Protective gloves.

  Check the condition of the gloves prior to each use.

  The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.

  Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.

  After use of gloves apply skin-cleaning agents and skin cosmetics.

  Preventive skin protection by use of skin-protecting agents is recommended.

  Wear gloves for protection against mechanical hazards according to EN 388.

  Avoid direct contact with the chemical/ the product/ the preparation by organizational measures.

· Material of gloves

  The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.      As the product is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.

  EN 388: Minimum requirements for efficiency level 1 for all groups.

  Recommended thickness of the material: ≥ 0.35 mm

  Butyl rubber, BR

  Nitrile rubber, NBR

· Penetration time of glove material

  EN 420: Minimum requirements for efficiency level 1 for all groups.

  The exact break through time has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

  For the mixture of chemicals mentioned below the penetration time has to be at least 6 minutes (Permeation according to EN 374 Part 3: Level 480).

· Not suitable are gloves made of the following materials:

  Leather gloves

  Strong material gloves

· Eye protection:

  Safety glasses.

· Body protection:

  Protective work clothing.

  Decontamination of clothing and surfaces are covered under operating and emergency procedures.

Stability and reactivity

· Reactivity

· Chemical stability No decomposition if used according to specifications.

· Possibility of hazardous reactions No dangerous reactions known.

· Conditions to avoid

 In case of thermal decomposition caused by smouldering and incomplete combustion toxic fumes may be developed.

· Incompatible materials: Protect from contamination.

· Hazardous decomposition products: Toxic metal oxide smoke

Disposal considerations

· Waste treatment methods

· Recommendation: Must be specially treated adhering to official regulations.

· Waste disposal key:

  The disposal of the product has to be carried out in accordance with the legal requirements. EWC waste codes are strictly industry-oriented, therefore waste classification has to be done by the waste producer.

· Uncleaned packaging:

· Recommendation:

  Packagings that may not be cleansed are to be disposed of in the same manner as the product.
