facture, formulation and packaging of the product.
Version 7 Page 7 of 15
SAFETY DATA SHEET according to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006
Engineering measures : Containment and/or segregation is the most reliable technical protection
measure if exposure cannot be eliminated.
The extent of these protection measures depends on the actual risks in
use.
If airborne mists or vapors are generated, use local exhaust ventilation
controls.
Assess exposure and use any additional measures to keep airborne
levels below any relevant exposure limit.
Where necessary, seek additional occupational hygiene advice.
Protective measures : The use of technical measures should always have priority over the use of
personal protective equipment.
When selecting personal protective equipment, seek appropriate profes-
sional advice.
Personal protective equipment should be certified to appropriate stand-
ards.
Respiratory protection : A combination gas, vapor and particulate respirator may be necessary
until effective technical measures are installed.
Protection provided by air-purifying respirators is limited.
Use a self-contained breathing apparatus in cases of emergency spills,
when exposure levels are unknown, or under any circumstances where
air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
Eye protection : If eye contact is possible, use tight-fitting chemical safety goggles and a
face shield.
Skin and body protection : Assess the exposure and select chemical resistant clothing based on the
potential for contact and the permeation / penetration characteristics of
the clothing material.
Wash with soap and water after removing protective clothing.
Decontaminate clothing before re-use, or use disposable equipment
(suits, aprons, sleeves, boots, etc.)
Wear as appropriate:
impervious protective suit
