Other Health Hazard Information
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Exposure Limits No exposure standard is available for the material as such. Exposure
standard for the hazardous components are as follows (NOHSC-1995):
Ammonia: TWA: 25ppm (17mg/m3), STEL: 35ppm (24mg/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. Ventilation should be sufficient to ensure
exposure is kept as low as practicable or at least below the recommended
exposure standards.
Beware of built up ammonia fumes when opening containers.
Personal Protection
Protective Equip. Avoid contact with skin and eyes and avoid breathing vapours.
The following personal protective equipment is recommended:
Respiratory protection, complying with AS1716, if ventilation is inadequate
or if working in a confined area.
Impervious PVC gloves.
Safety glasses or goggles.
Flammability
Fire Hazards Not combustible however, if aqueous component evaporates, residual material
may burn.
SAFE HANDLING INFORMATION
