08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Ensure good ventilation of the work station.

Hands

Wear protective gloves. Suitable gloves should be tested to EN 374. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/the substance/the preparation. As the product is a preparation of several substances, the resistance and penetration time/breakthrough time of the glove material cannot be calculated/observed in advance and, therefore, has to be checked prior to the application. The following are recommended: materials - natural latex or nitrile; thickness - 4 to 6 mils (0.1 mm - 0.15 mm); minimum breakthrough time - 60 minutes.

Eyes

Chemical goggles or safety glasses. Safety glasses

Respiratory

Where exposure through inhalation may occur from use, respiratory protection equipment is recommended. [In case of inadequate ventilation] wear respiratory protection.

Skin/Body

Wear suitable protective clothing

Environmental

Avoid release to the environment.
