STORAGE
Storage requirements
Store in a cool, dry place.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
EXPOSURE LIMIT VALUES
Consult local authorities for acceptable provincial values.
Component Country Type Value Remark
Pentachloronitrobenzene USA TWA-TLV, 0.5 mg/m3
ACGIH
ACGIH Toxicity to reproduction/fertility: A4
No other exposure limits have been established
PERSONAL PROTECTION
Respiratory protection
In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment., The determination of appropriate respiratory protection is best performed,on a case by case
basis, taking into consideration the exposure conditions of the particular operation., The respirator manufacturer should be consulted to ensure that the air-
purifying cartridges utilized will provide adequate protection for the exposure conditions and period of wear concerned.
Hand protection / protective gloves
Chemical resistant protective gloves
Eye protection
Safety glasses with side shields.
Skin protection
Wear protective clothing, such as long sleeves to minimize skin contact.
Other protective equipment
Eye bath, Safety shower
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Ventilation
General (mechanical) room ventilation is expected to be satisfactory., Special, local ventilation is needed at points where vapors can be expected to escape to the
workplace air.
