demand (NIOSH approved or
equivalent) and full protective gear. Use water spray to cool exposed surfaces.
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Wear proper protective equipment as specified in Section 8.
Contain spilled material and remove with inert absorbent. Dispose of contaminated absorbent, container and unused
contents in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
Handling: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! DO NOT TAKE INTERNALLY. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Open all windows and doors or use other means to ensure cross-ventilation and fresh air entry during application and
drying. Odor is not an adequate warning for hazardous conditions. Avoid breathing vapor and contact with eyes, skin and
clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Storage: Close container after each use. Do not store at temperatures above 120 degrees F. Store containers away from
excessive heat and freezing. Store away from caustics and oxidizers.
Exposure Notes:
14808-60-7 The 2002 ACGIH Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Substances and Physical Agents lists the median
Respirable Particulate Mass (RPM) point for crystalline silica at 4.0 microns in terms of the particle's aerodynamic
diameter.
The TLVs for crystalline silica represent the respirable fraction.
OSHA PEL TWA for Quartz is calculated using the following formula: 10 mg/m3/(% SiO2 + 2). Both concentration and
percent quartz for the application of this limit are to be determined from the fraction passing a size selector with the
following characteristics.
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------|
| ....... Aerodynamic diameter ( unit density sphere ) .....| Percent passing selector |
| 2 ................................................................................|.................90....................|
| 2.5 .............................................................................|..................75...................|
| 3.5 .............................................................................|..................50...................|
| 5.0 .............................................................................|..................25...................|
| 10 ..............................................................................|...................0....................|
Precautionary Measures: Contact lenses pose a special hazard; soft lenses may absorb and all lenses concentrate
irritants.
Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne levels. Ensure adequate
ventilation, especially in confined areas. Local ventilation of emission sources may be necessary to maintain ambient
concentrations below recommended exposure limits.
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
