3M's industrial hygiene program
focuses on task-based exposure assessment and control. Exposures are identified and
assessed qualitatively and/or quantitatively. Qualitative assessments are performed by an
industrial hygienist. Quantitative assessments include task-based personal sampling for
certain, specific fluorochemicals and/or source or area sampling. The results of the
assessments support decisions on exposure control. Engineering controls are preferred, but
personal protective equipment may be used on an interim basis or when effective engineering
control is not feasible.
4.
Briefly describe the engineering controls used to minimize exposure to this chemical:
Materials are transferred using closed piping (where possible) from reactor vessels to other
containers. Vacuum charging of materials from drums is a standard practice. Positionable local exhaust ventilation hoods are situated at significant point sources such as at drumbangs
`when drumming. General room air provides for dilution ofairborne materials.
S. Briefly list the personal protective equipment your workers regularly wear to prevent `exposure of this chemical:
Process operating standards list the respirator (e.g., supplied air, half mask or full facepiece
organic vapor cartridge with particulate prefilter, or particulate filtering), glove by elastomer
(e.g, neoprene or nitrile), chemical protective clothing (e.g., 2-piece PVC disposable
coveralls),
depending
eye protection (e.g.,
on typeofrespirator
chemical splash goggles with or without full faceshield
used) to be used by the employee when the task involves
exposure to a particular fluorochemical material.
