Exposure controls / personal protection

Respiratory protection       No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. In inadequately ventilated areas, where workplace limits are exceeded, where unpleasant odours exist or where dust, fibres and smoke occur, use self-contained breathing apparatus or breathing apparatus with a type P2 or P3 filter, in compliance with EN 143.

Hand protection       The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other., Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time., Be aware that in daily use the durability of a chemical resistant protective glove can be notably shorter than the break through time measured according to EN 374, due to the numerous outside influences (e.g. temperature).

gloves suitable for splash protection:

Material: butyl-rubber

Break through time: 30 min

Layer thickness: 0.5 mm

Eye protection       Tightly fitting safety goggles

Skin and body protection       Protective suit

Hygiene measures       Avoid contact with eyes. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs. Wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection.
