Control parameters Ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the workplace: WEL (Great Britain) Long-term value: 0.01 mg/m³ as Ag IOELV (EU) Long-term value: 0.01 mg/m³ as Ag Additional information: The lists valid during the making were used as basis. Exposure controls Personal protective equipment: General protective and hygienic measures: Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin. Respiratory protection: Required when dusts are generated: filter P2. Protection of hands: Protective gloves Material of gloves Polyethylene or rubber 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. Penetration time of glove material The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed. Eye protection: Tightly sealed goggles Body protection: Protective work clothing (Contd. on page 4)
