Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the permissible exposure limits Ensure adequate ventilation.
Individual protection measures, such ad personal protective equipment
Eye/Face Protection:
Protective gloves
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 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.
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.
Respiration Protection
No protective equipment is needed under normal use conditions. If exposure limits are exceeded or irritation is experienced, ventilation and evacuation may be required.
