Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure controls
. Personal protective equipment
. General protective and hygienic measures
.. The usual precautionary measures should be adhered to general rules for handling chemicals.
.. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing
.. Be sure to clean skin thoroughly after work and before breaks.
.. Use skin protection cream for preventive skin protection.
. Breathing equipment:
.. In case of brief exposure or low pollution use breathing filter apparatus. In case of intensive or longer exposure use breathing apparatus that is independent of circulating air.
.. Filter A
.. Filter ABEK
. Protection of hands:
.. Only use chemical-protective gloves with CE-labelling of category III (EN 374).
. Material of gloves
.. Nitrile rubber
... Recommended thickness of the material: ≥ 0,425 mm
... Value for the permeation: 60 - 78 min
.. Fluorocarbon rubber (Viton) / Butyl rubber
... Recommended thickness of the material: ≥ 0,7 mm
... Value for the permeation: > 480 min
.. The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
. Penetration time of glove material
.. The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
. For the permanent contact in work areas without heightened risk of injury (e.g. Laboratory) gloves made of the following material are suitable:
.. Butyl rubber, BR
.. Fluorocarbon rubber (Viton)
. Eye protection:
.. Tightly sealed safety glasses.
.. Gauze goggles
. Body protection:
.. Protective work clothing.
