Exposure controls / personal protection

Contains no substances with occupational exposure limit values.


 


PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT


Hand protection: Use gloves when handling substance in open systems.
Inspect gloves prior to use. Train operators for proper use.If only incidental exposure is expected: (work without direct contact to substance) use gloves tested according EN 16523-1/ASTM F739 or equivalent local standard breakthrough times at least 10 minutes, tested for chemicals indicated in chapter 3 of the SDS. Change gloves frequently.
If direct skin contact is expected: use gloves tested according to EN 16523-1/ASTM F739 or equivalent local standard, tested for chemicals indicated in chapter 3 of the SDS.
Permeation time must exceed contact time.


The aforementioned norms list different possible materials and thickness for the gloves to be used (e.g. nitrile gloves).


 


Eye protection: Eye wash bottle with pure water.


Use safety goggles and faceshield tested according to EN 166/ ANSI Z87.1 or equivalent local standard.


 


Skin and body protection: Wear working clothes covering arms and legs. The type of protective equipment must be selected according
to the concentration and amount of the hazardous substance at the specific workplace. Use apron and sleeve covers or complete chemical suit if exposure is expected. Equipment should conform to ISO 16602 /EN 13034-6 Typ PB[6].


Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection should be worn when workplace exposures exceed exposure limit requirements or guidelines.
If there are no applicable exposure limits or guidelines, use an approved respirator where there is a potential for adverse effects, including but not limited to respiratory irritation or odor, or where indicated by the exposure assessment. Selection of air-purifying or positive-pressure supplied-air will depend on the results of the exposure assessment which includes an evaluation of the specific operations and the potential airborne concentrations. For emergency conditions, use an approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.
In case a risk analysis proved the cartridge respirator as acceptable, use type: ABEK-P3 (EN 14387) OR Combination Multi-gas/P100
(42CFR84.193; ANSI Z88.7 or equivalent local standard) as a backup to engineering controls.
In absence of engineering controls, use self-contained breathing apparatus or full face supplied air respirators.
Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as CEN (EU) or NIOSH 42 CFR 84(US).


Hygiene measures: Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas.
Do not eat, drink or smoke during work.
Wash hands any time after handling the product.
