Exposure controls / personal protection

This product is exclusively dedicated for the application as on-site isolated intermediate under strictly controlled conditions according to Article 17 of Regulation EC 1907/2006 (REACH-Regulation).

Personal protective equipment General protective and hygienic measures: Contaminated protective suit shall be cleaned before taking it off.

Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.

Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.

Store protective clothing separately.

Respiratory protection:

Particle fi lter. The fi lter grade (P1 - P3) has to be established depending on work-place related limit values and the actual exposition.

Protection of hands: Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.

For the permanent contact gloves made of the following materials are suitable: The following materials are known from experience to be suitable for protection against undissolved solids: rubber.

Eye protection:Safety glasses

Body protection: Necessary protective suit has to be selected individually based on risk assessment.

Protection against thermal hazards: No specific measures required.

Limitation and supervision of exposure into the environment: Avoid spillage of product into the environment.

If possible use this material only in closed systems and devices. In case of open plant systems (sampling devices, filling and discharging, cleansing works etc.) use local exhaust and collecting trays. Follow emission limit values. Measures in case of unwanted emissions should be established.

Risk management measures: General protective and hygienic measures have to be observed.

Handling and use of this material/formulation only under controlled conditions in closed systems.

Employees who use this material/formulation must be trained and demonstrably instructed about possible risks for man and environment.

Measures for prevention of hazards in case of unwanted leakage shall be implemented.

Stability and reactivity

Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided: In order to avoid a possible deflagration the following conditions have to be followed:

- Avoid hotspots in all apparatus
