Exposure controls / personal protection

During its lifecycle the substance is handled under strictly controlled conditions and is rigorously contained in accordance Art. 18.

Based on the knowledge of the basic hazards to humans and environment technical, organizational and PPE measures are taken to minimize release and exposure of this substance. National regulatory requirements for the handling of chemicals are also fulfilled. Employees are regularly trained. The efficiency of these measures is controlled e.g. by workplace measurements. In case of deviations these measures are adapted.

8.1. Control parameters

Exposure limit values

Exposure limit values are not available.

DNEL/DMEL values

DNEL/DMEL values are not available.

PNEC values

PNEC values are not available.

8.2. Exposure controls

General protective measures

Do not inhale dust

Avoid contact with eyes and skin

Hygiene measures

Wash hands before breaks and after work.

Use barrier skin cream.

Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately and clean thoroughly before using again.

Respiratory protection : Wear dust mask when handling large quantities

Hand protection : Chemical resistant gloves

Minimum breakthrough time (glove): not determined

Minimum thickness (glove): not determined

Observe the information of the glove manufacturers on

permeability and breakthrough times and other workplace

requirements

Eye protection : safety glasses

Body protection : working clothes
