SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROL / PERSONAL PROTECTION
ACGIH threshold Limit Value (TLV): not established
EXPOSURE LIMITS:
OSHA (USA) Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL, 1989 Table Z-1-A
values or section-specific standards): not established
AIHA Workplace Environmental Exposure Level (WEEL): propylene
glycol: 500 ppm TWA, total: 10 mg/m3 TWA, aerosol only
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be
VENTILATION:
used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. Use process
enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below
RESPIRATORY
recommended exposure limits, an approved respirator must be worn.
PROTECTION:
Respirator type: mist; organic vapor. If respirators are used, a program
should be instituted to assure compliance with OSHA Standard 63 FR

SECTION 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Introduction: This environmental effects summary is written to assist in addressing emergencies created by an
accidental spill which might occur during the shipment of this material, and, in general, it is not meant to address
discharges to sanitary sewers or publicly owned treatment works. Data for this material have been used to estimate
its environmental impact.
It has the following properties: a high biochemical oxygen demand and a potential to cause oxygen depletion in
aqueous systems, a low potential to affect aquatic organisms, a low potential to persist in th environment, a low
potential to bioconcentrate. After dilution with a large amount of water, followed by secondary waste treatment, this
material is not expected to cause adverse environmental effects.
