· Material of 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.

ASSESSMENTS FOR THE USE OF NICKEL CHLORIDE FOR THE
PRODUCTION OF NICKEL METAL

For each sector, an overview of the range of operational conditions (OC) and predicted Clocal air and PEC air are
given below. To assess whether a site is compliant with the GES, the predicted Clocal needs to be compared to
11.5 ng Ni/m3 or the measured PEC needs to be compared to the DNEL of 20 ng Ni/m3.
