MSDS
Precautionary Measures: Please refer to other sections and subsections of this MSDS.
Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne levels. While mixing, provide
sufficient mechanical ventilation (local or general exhaust) to maintain exposure below PEL and TLV.
Respiratory Protection: In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. A NIOSH-approved air
purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be necessary under certain circumstances where
airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. A respiratory protection program that meets the OSHA
1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has recommended that the permissible exposure limit be
changed to 50 micrograms respirable free silica per cubic meter of air (0.05 mg/m3) as determined by a full shift sample
up to 10-hour work shift.
Skin Protection: Rubber gloves.
Eye Protection: Goggles or safety glasses with side shields.
Other protective equipment: Safety shower and eyewash station should be located in immediate work area. Provide
coveralls if body contact may occur.
Hygienic Practices: Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Remove and wash contaminated clothing
before re-use. Follow all MSDS / label precautions even after container is emptied because it may retain product residues.
Important: Listed Permissible Exposure Levels (PEL) are from the U.S. Dept. of Labor OSHA Final Rule Limits (CFR 29 1910.1000); these limits may vary
between states.
Note: An employee's skin exposure to substances having a "YES" in the "SKIN" column in the table above shall be prevented or reduced to the extent
necessary under the circumstances through the use of gloves, coveralls, goggles or other appropriate personal protective equipment, engineering controls or work
practices.
When reported, vapor pressure of this product has been calculated theoretically based on its constituent makeup and has not been determined experimentally.
