Exposure guidelines
US – California OELs: Skin designation
2-Methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate (CAS 108-65-6) Can be absorbed through the skin.
Toluene (CAS 108-88-3) Can be absorbed through the skin.
US – Minnesota HAZ Subs: Skin designation applies
Toluene (CAS 108-88-3) Skin designation applies.
Appropriate engineering Good general ventilation should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions.
controls If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering
controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits
have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Provide
eyewash station.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Wear approved safety goggles.
Skin protection
Hand protection Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Skin protection
Other Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing. Use of an impervious apron is recommended.
Respiratory protection If airborne concentrations are above the applicable exposure limits, use NIOSH approved
respiratory protection. In the United States of America, if respirators are used, a program
should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.
Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
General hygiene considerations Observe any medical surveillance requirements. When using do not smoke. Always
observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and
