PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Exposure Limits No exposure standard is available for the material as such. Exposure
standard for the residual monomer is as follows: TWA: 10ppm (35mg/m3)
TWA is the time weighted average concentration of the work atmosphere over a
normal 8-hour work day and a 40-hour work week. Nearly all workers may be
repeatedly exposed to this level, day after day, without adverse effect.
These TWAs are issued as guidelines for good practice. All atmospheric
contamination should be kept to as low a level as is practically possible.
These TWAs should not be used as fine lines between safe and dangerous
concentrations.
Eng. Controls Use in a well ventilated area.
Personal Protection
Protective Equip. Avoid contact with skin and eyes and avoid breathing vapours.
The following personal protective equipment is recommended:
Respiratory protection if exposed to spray mists.
Impervious gloves.
Safety glasses.
Flammability
Fire Hazards Dried material is combustible.
SAFE HANDLING INFORMATION
