Wear protective gloves. Recommendations are listed below. Other protective material may be used, depending on the situation, if adequate degradation and permeation data is available. If other chemicals are used in conjunction with this chemical, material selection should be based on protection for all chemicals present. Suitable material butyl-rubber Evaluation according to EN 374: level 6 Glove thickness approx 0,3 mm Break through time - 480 min Suitable material nitrile rubber Evaluation according to EN 374: level 6 Glove thickness approx 0,55 mm Break through time - 480 min
