| The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has developed a system for indicating the health hazards of chemicals: |
| 4 |
Danger, may be fatal on short exposure. Specialized protective equipment required. |
|
|
| 3 |
Warning, corrosive or toxic. |
|
|
| 2 |
Warning, may be harmful if inhaled or absorbed. |
|
|
| 1 |
Caution, may be irritating. |
|
|
| 0 |
No unusual hazard. |
|
|
| |
No information available. Avoid skin contact or inhalation.. |
|
|
| The compatibility of the glove films with each chemical is color coded as follows: |
| P |
POOR chemical resistance |
|
|
| F |
FAIR chemical resistance |
|
|
| G - E |
GOOD to EXCELLENT chemical resistance |
|
|
| Use of this application indicates
agreement with the [Terms of Use] statement. |
| Information is based upon published data. gloves have not been individually tested against these chemicals. Variability in material thickness, chemical concentration, temperature, and length of exposure to chemicals will affect specific performance. |
