Nora The word `Skin" following a substance indicates that the substance can penetrate the etas to contribute to the exposure end TLV should be reduced accordingly
Parts of vapor or gas per million parts of air by volume at 25 C and 760 mm Hg pressure. Approximate mg of particulate per nmol air
fiMiHions of particles per cn ft of air, based on impinger samples counted by light-field teehmca.
TThe percentage of crystalline silica in the formula is the amount determined from airborne samples, except in those instances m which other methods have been shown to be applicable.
A numbers, see specific number in Appendix A C substances, see Appendix C
Appendix A
A* I Beoxldlne Because of high incidence of bladder tumors in man, any exposure, including skm, is extremely hazardous
A-2 p-Hopbtbylomlne Become of the ex tremely high incidence of Madder tu mors m workers handling this compound, and the mobility to control exposures. B-nophthylamrne has been prohibited from manufacture, use ond other activi ties that involve human contact by the State of Pennsylvania
A-3 N-NitrosodimeHiylombie Because of ex tremely high toxicity end presumed car cinogenic potential of this compound,
contoct by any route*should not be per mitted
A-4 Teflon decomposition products At least one identified component of Teflon de composition products is extremely toxic, but in the absence of more complete foxicrty information and suitable analy tic methods, o definite threshold limit value is not recommended at this time, but oir concentrations should be minimal
A-5 ft-Proplotoctone Becouse of high acute toxicity and demonstrated skin tumor production in animals, contact by any
route should be avoided.
