· Protection of hands:

Protective gloves.

The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the

preparation.

Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the

degradation

· Material of gloves

Rubber gloves

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. As the product is a preparation of several

substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore

to be checked prior to the application.

· Penetration time of glove material

Value for the permeation: Level £ 8h

Butylkautschuk - Butyl (0.5 mms of breakthrough time> = 2 hours)

Fluorine India rubber - FKM (0.4 mms of breakthrough time> = 8 hours)

· For the permanent contact gloves made of the following materials are suitable:

Nitrile rubber, NBR

Butyl rubber, BR

Fluorocarbon rubber (Viton)

PVC gloves

· Not suitable are gloves made of the following materials:

Strong gloves

Leather gloves

· Eye protection: Tightly sealed safety glasses.

· Body protection: Acid resistant protective clothing
