SECTION VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Use NIOSH or MSHA approved equipment when airborne exposure limits may be exceeded.
NIOSH/MSHA approved breathing equipment may be required for non-routine and emergency use.
(See Section IX for suitable equipment).
Pending the results of long term health effects studies, engineering control of airborne fibers to the
lowest levels attainable is advised.
VENTILATION
Ventilation should be used whenever possible to control or reduce airborne concentrations of fiber and
dust. Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, reactive hydrocarbons and a small
amount of formaldehyde may accompany binder burn-off during first heat. Use adequate ventilation
or other precautions to eliminate vapors resulting from binder burn-off. Exposure to burn-off fumes
may cause respiratory tract irritation, bronchial hyper-reactivity and asthmatic response.
SKIN PROTECTION
Wear gloves, hats and full body clothing to prevent skin contact. Use separate lockers for work
clothes to prevent fiber transfer to street clothes. Wash work clothes separately from other clothing
and rinse washing machine thoroughly after use.
EYE PROTECTION
Wear safety glasses or chemical worker’s goggles to prevent eye contact. Do not wear contact lenses
when working with this substance. Have eye baths readily available where eye contact can occur.
