Exposure controls / personal protection

additional information on design of technical facilities: no further data
ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: the product does not contain any relevant quantities of materials with critical values that have to be monitored at the workplace.
personal protective equipment:
general protective and hygienic measures: wash hands before breaks and at the end of the work
respiratory protection: suitable respiratory device recommended.
in exceptional cases (e.g. exceeding of the air limit value) respiratory protection is required. use dust protection mask or respiratory protection apparatus with filter P2. Observe furher national regulations concerning respiratory protection.
protection of hands: protective gloves. Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation
matreial of gloves: nitrile rubber, NBR.
recommended thickness of the material >=0.35mm.
penetration time of the glove material: value for the permeation: level >=8hrs.
the exact breakthrough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
