SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection

Appropriate engineering : Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable, this should be
controls achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction.
Individual protection measures
Hygiene measures : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products,
before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working
period. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially
contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that
eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Eye/face protection : Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
Skin protection
Hand protection
There is no one glove material or combination of materials that will give unlimited resistance to any individual or
combination of chemicals.
The breakthrough time must be greater than the end use time of the product.
The instructions and information provided by the glove manufacturer on use, storage, maintenance and
replacement must be followed.
Gloves should be replaced regularly and if there is any sign of damage to the glove material.
Always ensure that gloves are free from defects and that they are stored and used correctly.
The performance or effectiveness of the glove may be reduced by physical/chemical damage and poor
maintenance.
Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin but should not be applied once exposure has
occurred.
Gloves : For prolonged or repeated contact use protective gloves. Barrier creams may help
to protect the exposed areas of skin, they should however not be applied once
exposure has occurred. Skin should be washed after contact.

Use chemical resistant gloves classified under Standard EN 374: Protective

gloves against chemicals and micro-organisms. Recommended gloves: Viton® or
Nitrile
Breakthrough Time: 480 min

When prolonged or frequently repeated contact may occur, a glove with a

protection class of 6 (breakthrough time greater than 480 minutes according to
EN 374) is recommended. When only brief contact is expected, a glove with a
protection class of 2 or higher (breakthrough time greater than 30 minutes
according to EN 374) is recommended.

NOTICE: The selection of a specific glove for a particular application and duration
of use in a workplace should also take into account all relevant workplace factors
such as, but not limited to: Other chemicals which may be handled, physical
requirements (cut/puncture protection, dexterity, thermal protection), potential
body reactions to glove materials, as well as the instructions/specifications
provided by the glove supplier.

The user must check that the final choice of type of glove selected for handling
this product is the most appropriate and takes into account the particular
conditions of use, as included in the user's risk assessment.

Body protection : Not applicable.

Other skin protection : Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be
selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be
approved by a specialist before handling this product.
