Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
🧤 Hand Protection
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN ISO 374-1). Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN ISO 374-1): butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.
👁️ Eye Protection
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
😷 Respiratory Protection
Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds (boiling point >65 ℃, e. g. EN 14387 Type A)
🦺 Skin/Body Protection
chemical-protection suit (f.e. according to EN 14605)
🌍 Environmental Exposure Controls
