8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls
Ventilation:
Vapors and fumes liberated from compounds during hot cured processing should
be exhausted from work areas to maintain the ambient workplace atmosphere
below the limits listed in section 2.
Personal Protective Equipment
Respirators:
when temperature exceeds 200癈 and ventilation is inadequate to maintain con-
centration below exposure limits, use a positive pressure air supplied respirator.
Air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
Protective Clothing:
If there is potential contact with hot/molten material, wear heat resistant clothing
and footwear. Do not touch decomposed parts even when cool. Neoprene gloves
recommended.

Conditions to avoid
Overheating
Incompaibility with other materials
No specific information is available, however strong oxidizers or reducing agents
which generally not compatible with compounds.
Hazardous Decomposition Products
Fumes produced when heated to decomposition temperatures may contain carbon
monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen cyanide, oxides of nitrogen, and small
amounts of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Combustion products from rub-
ber, like those of other natural and synthetic materials, must be considerd toxic.
This information is, to the best of our knowledge, accurate and reliable to the date indicated. The above mentioned data
have been obtained by tests we consider as reliable. We don't assure that the same results can be obtained in other
