4 Page: 4/11 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Further information on storage conditions: Keep container dry. Specific end use(s) For the relevant identified use(s) listed in Section 1 the advice mentioned in this section 7 is to be observed. 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Exposure controls Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection: Suitable respiratory protection for higher concentrations or long-term effect: Particle filter with low efficiency for solid particles (e.g. EN 143 or 149, Type P1or FFP1) Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374) Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6, corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374): e.g. nitrile rubber (0.4 mm), chloroprene rubber (0.5 mm), polyvinylchloride (0.7 mm) and other Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166) General safety and hygiene measures Do not breathe dust. Hands and/or face should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift. 9.
