<p>Hi Eric,<o:p></o:p></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.<o:p></o:p></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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I hope that helps a bit.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
Nathanael<o:p></o:p></p>
