Individual protection measures (personal protective equipment)

Eye/face protection
Wear eye/face protection.

Skin protection
- Hand protection
Wear suitable gloves. Chemical protection gloves are suitable, which are tested according to EN 374. Check leak-tight-
ness/impermeability prior to use. In the case of wanting to use the gloves again, clean them before taking off and air
them well. For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves men-
tioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.

- Other protection measures

Take recovery periods for skin regeneration. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended.
Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

Respiratory protection
In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection.

Environmental exposure controls

Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination. Keep away from drains, surface and ground water.
