Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

- Eye protection: Safety glasses with side protection for chemicals (EN166).

- Protection for skin: Chemical protection clothing. Use clothing that provides a full protection to the skin.

- Protection for hands: Use protective gloves according to EN 374 standards, on the base of the intended use (penetration and permeation). Suitable gloves type: PVA (Polyvinyl alcohol) and NBR (nitrile rubber). Replace gloves immediately in case of degradation.

- Respiratory protection: For normal use is not required respiratory protection.

- Thermal Hazards: Flammable mixture.

- Environmental exposure controls:  Containers may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues. Do not allow uncontrolled leakage of product into the environment.
