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.
