Personal protective equipment
General protective and hygienic measures
The usual protective measures based on the application have to be followed.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Do not eat or drink while working.
All protective equipment used shall be according to 29 CFR.1910 Subpart I Personal Protective
Equipment
Breathing equipment:
Under normal conditions of use not required.
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and
ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant a respirator's use.
Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when necessary.
Protection of hands:
Chemical resistant gloves
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the
preparation.
Check protective gloves prior to each use for their proper condition.
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 from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Penetration time of glove material
