Exposure controls / personal protection
Control measures
- Engineering measures: Avoid splashes. Provide adequate ventilation. Extract at emission point.
Individual protection measures
- Respiratory protection: Use a respirator with an approved filter if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary.
- Hand protection: Where there is a risk of contact with hands, use appropriate gloves. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it. 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. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Gloves should be discarded and replaced if there is any indication of degradation or chemical breakthrough.
- Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles. In case of contact through splashing: Wear face-shield and protective suit.
- Skin and body protection: Protective suit
Hygiene measures
