Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
No further data; see item 7. Use only in well-ventilated areas.
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: Natural rubber, NR. 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. The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
Tightly sealed goggles
Filter P2. In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure use self-contained respiratory protective device. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.
