Skin protection
When working with UV-curable products, human skin can be stressed in different ways:
- through direct contact with hazardous substances such as B. monomers or binders. This skin contact can be caused by wearing
suitable protective gloves can be largely avoided. - through direct contact with UV radiation
- by softening of the skin (e.g. hands) when wearing protective gloves.
It is therefore recommended before and during work with UV-curable materials to protect the skin during work
wear suitable protective gloves. This reduces contact with the reactive binders and contact with the skin
prevented from exposure to UV rays.
On the other hand, when working with gloves, moisture can accumulate in the gloves due to perspiration,
resulting in softening and swelling of the skin. Various hand creams, gels or emulsions have been developed to effectively protect the skin against softening and to reduce perspiration. These are in specialist shops
.
Similarly, special creams have also been developed to effectively protect against various hazardous substances or UV radiation (UVA, UVB, UVC).
to protect.
When dealing with UV radiation, it is particularly important to ensure that not only your hands, but also everyone else
Parts of the body that can come into contact with UV radiation (arms, face, ...) treated with a UV protection cream
Need to become.
After completing work with hazardous substances or UV radiation, hands should be protected, e.g. B. with a moisturizing
panthenol cream.
