Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection <br />TWA: 150 ppm 8 hours. <br />2-Methyl-1-propanol <br /> <br />CA Alberta Provincial (Canada, 4/2009). <br />8 hrs OEL: 50 ppm 8 hours. <br />8 hrs OEL: 152 mg/m3 8 hours. <br />CA British Columbia Provincial (Canada, <br />5/2015). <br />TWA: 50 ppm 8 hours. <br />CA Ontario Provincial (Canada, 7/2015). <br />TWA: 50 ppm 8 hours. <br />CA Quebec Provincial (Canada, 1/2014). <br />TWAEV: 50 ppm 8 hours. <br />TWAEV: 152 mg/m3 8 hours. <br />CA Saskatchewan Provincial (Canada, <br />7/2013). <br />STEL: 60 ppm 15 minutes. <br />TWA: 50 ppm 8 hours. <br />Appropriate engineering <br />controls <br />Environmental exposure <br />controls <br />: Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or <br />other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any <br />recommended or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas, <br />vapor or dust concentrations below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof <br />ventilation equipment. <br />Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure <br />they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some <br />cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment <br />will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels. <br />Individual protection measures <br />Hygiene measures : Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before <br />eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. <br />Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. <br />Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety <br />showers are close to the workstation location. <br />Eye/face protection : Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk <br />assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists, <br />gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless <br />the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: chemical splash goggles. <br />Skin protection <br />Hand protection <br />Body protection <br />Other skin protection <br />: Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be <br />worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is <br />necessary. Considering the parameters specified by the glove manufacturer, check <br />during use that the gloves are still retaining their protective properties. It should be <br />noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may be different for different <br />glove manufacturers. In the case of mixtures, consisting of several substances, the <br />protection time of the gloves cannot be accurately estimated. <br />: Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being <br />performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before <br />handling this product. When there is a risk of ignition from static electricity, wear anti- <br />static protective clothing. For the greatest protection from static discharges, clothing <br />should include anti-static overalls, boots and gloves. <br />: Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected <br />based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a <br />specialist before handling this product. <br />Date of issue/Date of revision : 6/4/2016 Date of previous issue :6/3/2016 Version :3 8/17
