Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
EXPOSURE CONTROLS
The following materials had no OELs on our records
• Latent aliphatic polyamine:
• 4, 4' - methylenebis(2- methylcyclohexanamine): PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATOR
Type AK-P Filter of sufficient capacity
EYE
• Chemical goggles.
• Full face shield may be required for supplementary but never for primary protection of eyes
• Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the
wearing of lens or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a review of lens absorption andadsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in theirremoval and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contactlens as soon as practicable. Lens should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be removed in a clean environmentonly after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].
HANDS/FEET
• Wear chemical protective gloves, eg. PVC.
• Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, eg. Rubber.
• When handling corrosive liquids, wear trousers or overalls outside of boots, to avoid spills entering boots.
NOTE:
• The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must be taken, when removing gloves and other protective equipment, to
• Contaminated leather items, such as shoes, belts and watch-bands should be removed and destroyed.
Suitability and durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Important factors in the selection of gloves include: such as:• frequency and duration of contact,• chemical resistance of glove material,• glove thickness and• dexterity.

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS
■ May cause SENSITISATION by skin contact.
■ Possible respiratory sensitiser*.
■ Cumulative effects may result following exposure*.
■ * (limited evidence).
TOXICITY AND IRRITATION
■ unless otherwise specified data extracted from RTECS - Register of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances.
■ Contact allergies quickly manifest themselves as contact eczema, more rarely as urticaria or Quincke's oedema. The pathogenesis of contact eczemainvolves a cell-mediated (T lymphocytes) immune reaction of the delayed type.
Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ceases. This may be due to a non-allergenic condition knownas reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) which can occur following exposure to high levels of highly irritating compound.
4,4'-METHYLENEBIS(2-METHYLCYCLOHEXANAMINE):LATENT ALIPHATIC POLYAMINE:■ The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may produce a contact dermatitis (nonallergic). This form ofdermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling the epidermis.
■ The material may produce respiratory tract irritation. Symptoms of pulmonary irritation may include coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, shortness ofbreath, headache, nausea, and a burning sensation.
Unlike most organs, the lung can respond to a chemical insult or a chemical agent, by first removing or neutralising the irritant and then repairingthe damage (inflammation of the lungs may be a consequence).
The repair process (which initially developed to protect mammalian lungs from foreign matter and antigens) may, however, cause further damage to thelungs (fibrosis for example) when activated by hazardous chemicals.
■ Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ceases. This may be due to a non-allergenic conditionknown as reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) which can occur following exposure to high levels of highly irritating compound.

Section 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Containers may still present a chemical hazard/ danger when empty.
• Return to supplier for reuse/ recycling if possible.
Otherwise:• If container can not be cleaned sufficiently well to ensure that residuals do not remain or if the container cannot be used to store the same product, then puncture containers, to prevent re-use, and bury at an authorised landfill.
• Where possible retain label warnings and MSDS and observe all notices pertaining to the product.
Legislation addressing waste disposal requirements may differ by country, state and/ or territory. Each user must refer to laws operating in their area.
A Hierarchy of Controls seems to be common - the user should investigate:• Reduction.
• DO NOT allow wash water from cleaning or process equipment to enter drains.
• It may be necessary to collect all wash water for treatment before disposal.
• In all cases disposal to sewer may be subject to local laws and regulations and these should be considered first.
• Where in doubt contact the responsible authority.
• Recycle wherever possible or consult manufacturer for recycling options.
• Consult State Land Waste Authority for disposal.
• Bury or incinerate residue at an approved site.
• Recycle containers if possible, or dispose of in an authorised landfill.
