Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment
Eye protection:
- Eye wash bottle with pure water
- Tightly fitting safety goggles
- Use eye protection according to EN 166.


 


Hand protection
- In case of contact through splashing:
Material : Nitrile rubber
Break through time : > 30 min
Glove thickness : > 0,11 mm


- In case of full contact:
Material : butyl-rubber
Break through time : > 480 min
Glove thickness : > 0,4 mm


- Remarks: The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 and the standard EN 374 derived from it. This recommendation is only valid for the product mentioned in the safety data sheet and provided by us and for the application specified by us. 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. The suitability for a specific workplace should be discussed with the producers of the protective gloves.


 


Skin and body protection:
- Dust impervious protective suit
- Choose body protection according to the amount and concentration of the dangerous substance at the work place.
