SECTION 8 – EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Use in a well-ventilated area. If handling results in dust generation, special ventilation may be needed
to minimize dust exposure. If heated material generates vapor or fumes, use process enclosures, local
exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control exposure.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
Respiratory system
Product processing, heat sealing of film or operations involving the use of wires or blades heated above
300
0
C may produce dust, vapor or fumes. To minimize risk of over exposure to dust, vapor or fumes it
is recommended that a local exhaust system is placed above the equipment, and that the working area
is properly ventilated. If ventilation is inadequate, use certified respirator that will protect against
dust/mist.
Skin and body
Hot material: Wear heat-resistant protective gloves, clothing and face shield able to withstand the
temperature of the molten product. Cold material: None required; however, use of gloves is good
industrial practice.
