8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

National Exposure

Standards

Use local exhaust if misting occurs. Natural ventilation is adequate in the

absence of mists. Exposure standards for the decomposition products are:

Material TWA STEL

Sodium Hydroxide (dust) 2 ppm, 2 mg/m3 12 hrs peak

limitation

The measures appropriate for a particular worksite depend on how this

material is used and on the extent of exposure. Use this general information

to help develop specific control measures. Ensure that control systems are

properly designed and maintained and comply with occupational,

environmental, fire, and other applicable regulations.

Biological Limit Values No biological limit allocated.

Engineering Controls A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee

exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred

because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source,

preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Adequate ventilation

should be provided so that exposure limits are not exceeded.

Respiratory Protection If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure, then

a half face piece respirator with a replaceable organic vapour filter should be

used. Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/NZS 1715,

Selection, Use and Maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices; and

AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any necessary

changes for individual circumstances.
