Personal protective equipment
- Eye and face protection
- goggles recommended during refilling.
- Skin protection
- Protective gloves to be worn. 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
- 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. As the product is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of
- the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
- The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed.
