Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

๐Ÿญ Engineering Controls

Mix and prepare in a place with efficient exhaust ventilation. Local exhaust is recommended. An eye wash bottle must be available at the work site. Observe Occupational Exposure Limits and minimize the risk of inhalation.

๐Ÿงค Hand Protection

Use disposable gloves protecting against epoxy along with cotton gloves closest to the skin. Butyl rubber gloves are recommended. The most suitable glove must be chosen in consultation with the gloves supplier, who can inform about the breakthrough time of the glove material. (*)

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Eye Protection

Wear goggles/face shield.

๐Ÿ˜ท Respiratory Protection

In case of inadequate ventilation and work of brief duration, use suitable respiratory equipment. It is recommended to use respiratory equipment with combination filter, type ABEK

๐Ÿฆบ Skin/Body Protection

Wear suitable protective clothing as protection against splashing or contamination.
