To avoid skin problems reduce the wearing of gloves to the required minimum.

Check the permeability prior to each renewed use of the glove.

The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.

Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the

degradation.

· Material of gloves

Nitrile rubber - NBR

Recommended thickness of the material: ≥ 0,11 mm

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

Penetration time: ≥ 8 hours

The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be

observed.

Protective gloves should be replaced at first signs of wear.
