Personal protective equipment:
General protective and hygienic measures:
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Breathing equipment:
In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer
exposure use respiratory
protective device that is independent of circulating air.
Protection of hands: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 chemicalmixture.
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the
degradation
Material of gloves
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks
of quality and varies frommanufacturer to manufacturer. As the product is a preparation of several
substances, the resistance of the glove material cannot be calculated in advance and has therefore
to be checked prior to the application.
Penetration time of glove material
The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and
has to be observed.
Eye protection:Tightly sealed goggles
