Material Safety Data Sheet
Personal protective equipment:
Protective clothing. Protective goggles. Gloves. Insufficient ventilation: wear respiratory protection. Face shield.
Eye/face protection Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection
tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as
NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin protection Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper
glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid
skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use
in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash
and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the
