<p>Hi Eric,</p>
<p>In our facility we have levels of PPE required. Inside the Clean
Room standard cleanroom gloves are required at all times to
prevent particle contamination. A second pair of gloves is
required for any work on the wet-benches or spin coaters. These
gloves are single-use and can be disposed of in the Clean Room
solid chemical waste if they get contaminated. For HF, BOE,
Nanostrip, acids, etc., a third pair of elbow-length thicker
nitrile gloves, an apron, and a face shield is required. These
items are dedicated for the acid work and re-usable. We would
replace them if they are damaged.<br>
</p>
<p>Outside the Clean Room we have similar protocols except we don't
have the initial layer to prevent particle contamination and we
don't use cleanroom-grade gloves.</p>
<p>I hope that helps a bit.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
Nathanael<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi All
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are reassessing how we should be providing heavier
chemical gloves for our users, especially for use with HF. I
am curious about how everyone else is handling these types
of gloves. For example:</div>
<div>- Is each user responsible for their own pair of gloves?</div>
<div>- Is there a common set of gloves that are replaced
periodically?</div>
<div>- Are chemical gloves single use and then disposed of?</div>
<div>- Do you use one type of glove material for all processing?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would be happy to summarize the responses for everyone.</div>
