Exposure controls / personal protection

This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 18(4) for transported isolated intermediates. Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each Manufacturing site. Written confirmation of application of Strictly Controlled Conditions has been received from affected Distributor and Downstream Manufacturer/User of the Registrant's intermediate.

Control parameters
Components with critical values that require monitoring at the workplace:
Not required.

Additional information:
The lists that were valid during the compilation were used as basis.

Exposure controls
Personal protective equipment
General protective and hygienic measures:
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and food.
Instantly remove any contaminated garments.
Do not carry cleaning cloths impregnated with the product in trouser pockets.
Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace.
Do not eat, drink or smoke while working.
Do not breathe vapours.
Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing.
Wash hands during breaks and at the end of the work.
Use skin protection cream for preventive skin protection.

Breathing equipment:
Use breathing protection in case of insufficient ventilation.

Protection of hands:
Impervious gloves
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the degradation.
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
Check the permeability prior to each renewed use of the glove.
To avoid skin problems reduce the wearing of gloves to the required minimum.
Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation / the chemical mixture.

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:
Protective gloves should be replaced at first signs of wear.
The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.

Eye protection:
Safety glasses

Body protection:
Protective work clothing
Body protection must be chosen depending on activity and possible exposure.

Stability and reactivity
