Safety & Health

Handling Precautions
  • HYPOX® RK820 is not a primary skin irritant or sensitizer. However, as with any epoxy material, irritation can result from repeated or prolonged contact. The symptoms of this irritation may appear as a mild reddening or a more pronounced rash. It is, therefore, important to avoid skin contact where possible. Butyl rubber gloves, full eye protection and protective clothing are recommended.
  • Skin contact: Wash well with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly before reusing. It is recommended that resin not be removed from skin with solvents since solvents increase contact and encourage penetration. Moreover, solvents of themselves dry and crack the skin.
  • Eye contact: Flush immediately with large quantities of water.
