8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Exposure limits

CAS No.	Substance	Value	Category	Origin
14808-60-7	Respirable crystalline silica (quartz)	0.05 mg/m³	TWA (8 h)	OSHA PEL
14808-60-7	Respirable crystalline silica — action level	0.025 mg/m³	TWA (8 h)	OSHA
14808-60-7	Respirable crystalline silica (quartz)	0.025 mg/m³	TWA (8 h)	ACGIH TLV
—	Particulates not otherwise regulated, total dust	15 mg/m³	TWA (8 h)	OSHA PEL
—	Particulates not otherwise regulated, respirable fraction	5 mg/m³	TWA (8 h)	OSHA PEL

Respirable crystalline silica is regulated under 29 CFR 1910.1053. Where exposures may exceed the action level, the standard requires exposure assessment, a written exposure control plan, and medical surveillance.

Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering controls	Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation where the dry powder is handled. Use dust-suppressing methods when decanting and mixing. Do not dry sweep or use compressed air to clean up.
Protective and hygiene measures	Do not inhale dust. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Remove contaminated clothing and wash it separately from personal clothing.
Eye / face protection	Tightly sealed goggles. Required in any dusty environment.
Hand protection	Protective gloves. Suitable materials: nitrile impregnated cotton gloves, PVC or polyethylene, recommended thickness 0.5 mm or greater. Permeation time approximately 480 minutes.
Skin / body protection	Protective work clothing. Long sleeves.
Respiratory protection	Wear a NIOSH-approved N95 or equivalent particulate respirator when handling the dry powder and when sanding or abrading a cured surface. For intensive or prolonged exposure, use a supplied-air or self-contained respiratory protective device. Respirator use is subject to 29 CFR 1910.134.

Stated glove penetration times are laboratory values and are not measured under practical conditions. A maximum wearing time corresponding to 50% of the penetration time is recommended. The exact breakthrough time must be established by the glove manufacturer and observed.
