Exposure controls / personal protection

Control parameters: none

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection :      No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required.

                                               In case of mist, spray or aerosol exposure wear suitable personal respiratory protection and protective suit.

                                               Recommended Filter type: A/P (EN 141)

                                               The filter class for the respirator must be suitable for the maximum expected contaminant concentration that may arise

                                               when handling the product.

Hand protection :                 Protective gloves complying with EN 374.

                                               Recommendation: Nitrile rubber

                                               Break thoug time >480 min

                                               Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special

                                               workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact).

Eye protection :                     Face-shield

                                               Tightly fitting safety goggles

Skin and body protection : Rubber apron
