Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment
Hand Protection
Protective gloves. The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation. Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/ the chemical mixture. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation. 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 trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
Eye Protection
Safety glasses recommended during refilling.
Respiratory Protection
In case of brief exposure or low pollution use breathing filter apparatus. In case of intensive or longer exposure use breathing apparatus that is independent of circulating air.
Skin/Body Protection
Protective work clothing.
