路 General protective and hygienic measures
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and food.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing
Wash hands during breaks and at the end of the work.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
路 Breathing equipment: Use breathing protection against the effects of fumes/dust/aerosol.
路 Recommended filter device for short term use: Filter P2
路 Protection of hands:
Alkaline resistant gloves
Only use chemical-protective gloves with CE-labelling of category III.
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
After use of gloves apply skin-cleaning agents and skin cosmetics.
路 Material of gloves
nitrile rubber, NBR
Recommended thickness of the material: 鈮? 0.11 mm
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.
路 Penetration time of glove material
Value for the permeation: Level 鈮? 6 (480 min)
The exact break trough time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
