8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
EXPOSURE GUIDELINES
CHEMICAL EXPOSURE LIMIT
Ethylene Glycol (as aerosol) 100 mg/m
3
Ceiling ACGIH TLV
Water None Established
Diethylene Glycol 10 mg/m
3
TWA AIHA WEEL
2-Ethyl Hexanoic Acid None Established
APPROPRIATE ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use general ventilation or local exhaust as required to maintain exposures
below the occupational exposure limits.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: For operations where the TLV is exceeded a NIOSH approved respirator with organic vapor
cartridges and dust/mist prefilters or supplied air respirator is recommended. Equipment selection depends on contaminant type
and concentration. Select and use in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134 and good industrial hygiene practice. For firefighting,
use self-contained breathing apparatus.
GLOVES: Chemical resistant gloves such as neoprene or PVC where contact is possible.
EYE PROTECTION: Splash-proof goggles.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT/CLOTHING: Appropriate protective clothing as needed to minimize skin contact.
