STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Where possible, use vacuum suction with HEPA filters to clean up spilled material. Use dust suppressant
where sweeping if necessary. Avoid clean up procedure which may result in water pollution. (Observe Special
Protection Information Section VIII.)
WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS
The transportation, treatment, and disposal of this waste material must be conducted in compliance with all ap-
plicable Federal, State, and Local regulations.
SECTION VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATIONRESPIRATORY 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 suit-
able equipment).
Pending the results of long term health effects studies, engineering control of airborne fibers to the lowest lev-
els 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 formalde-
hyde may accompany binder burn-off during first heat. Use adequate ventilation or other precautions to elimi-
nate 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 pre-
vent fiber transfer to street clothes. Wash work clothes separately from other clothing and rinse washing ma-
chine 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.
