Observe the usual precautions for handling chemicals.

Do not breathe dust.

Hand protection :       Nitrile rubber gloves.

Minimum breakthrough time (glove): not determined

Minimum thickness (glove): not determined

With solid dry substances permeation is not to be expected, therefore the breakthrough-time for this protective glove has not been measured.

These types of protective gloves are offered by various manufacturers. Please note the manufacturers´ detailed statements, especially about the minimum thickness and the minimum breakthrough time. Consider also the particular working conditions under which the gloves are being used.

Eye protection :       Safety glasses
