Exposure controls / personal protection

For some uses this substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions.

Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk -based management systems is available at each Manufacturing site.

Exposure controls

Personal protective equipment

General protective and hygienic measures

. The usual precautionary measures should be adhered to general rules for handling chemicals.

. Wash hands during breaks and at the end of the work.

. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing

. Use skin protection cream for preventive skin protection.

Breathing equipment:

. 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.

. Filter ABEK (EN 14387)

Protection of hands:

Material of gloves

. Fluorocarbon rubber (Viton) / Butyl rubber

.. Recommended thickness of the material: ≥ 0,7 mm

.. Value for the permeation: > 480 min

. Nitrile rubber

.. Recommended thickness of the material: ≥ 0,425 mm

.. Value for the permeation: 60 - 120 min

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.

. Penetration time of glove material

. The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

As protection from splashes gloves made of the following materials are suitable:

. Nitril rubber, NBR

. Butyl rubber, BR

Eye protection:

. Tightly sealed safety glasses (EN 166)

Body protection:

. Protective work clothing (EN 340).
