Something to think about:

Do you wear safety glasses, trousers , sturdy shoes ora lab coat while working in the laboratory?

Do you use suitable gloves while working with hazardsubstances?

Do you use skin protection cream before and afterfinishing work with chemicals?

Have you ever looked into the Instructions for useof protective gloves?

Adopt specific measures:- match with the [S]TOP-Principle

- technical solutions are the most effective

Implement concrete measures:- process control (on schedule?)

- efficiency control (danger eliminated?)- preservation control (sustainable development?)- up-dating of the risk assessment

Inhalation of a small doses leads to broncical catarrh

Inhalation of a large amount leads to heavy corrosive injuries like lungedema

Massive Inhalation of HF-gas leads to aquick death

Symptoms of intoxication can occur even weeks after the intoxication but normally in a couple of days

Hydrofluorig acid and hydrofluoric solution should contaminate thewaste water but has to be disposed after the regulations of the University of Bonn
