Exposure controls
Engineering Measures
Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this
should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and
good general extraction. Spraying of sensitizer containing
products should only be carried out in suitable spray booths or
enclosures equipped with effective exhaust ventilation to prevent
spray mist escaping into the work areas outside the spray booth.
Respiratory protective equipment should be worn by spray booth
operatives (see "Personal protection" below).
Under cool dry conditions, it is possible for the isocyanate to
remain unreacted in the paint film for up to 30 hours after
application.
Personal protective equipment
All personal protective equipment, including respiratory
protective equipment, used to control exposure to hazardous substances must be selected to meet the requirements of the
Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992 and the
COSHH Regulations.
