Safety Data Sheets (Sdss) Information and Glossary
Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) Information and Glossary 2408 Wanda Daley Drive Ames, Iowa 50011 (515) 294-5359 | www.ehs.iastate.edu Copyright© Reviewed 2018 Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) Information Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) are informational sheets required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for hazardous substances (chemicals). The OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) and the Iowa Hazardous Chemical Risks Right to Know Standard (Iowa Administrative Code Section 875, Chapters 110-140) requires SDSs be “readily accessible” for any hazardous chemical in the workplace. Employees must be made aware of the SDS content and chemical storage location. SDSs can be obtained from manufacturers and distributors at the time of initial shipment. Each university workplace must maintain an SDS for each hazardous chemical in its inventory. SDSs that are available electronically meet the “readily accessible” criteria, as long as computer access is available to all employees whenever work is being conducted. EH&S suggests that each workspace also maintain paper copies of commonly used hazardous chemicals for ease of access. OSHA requires specific information be included on an SDS, in a 16-section format as described in the UN Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). The SDS must be in English and must include at least the following information: Section 1: Identification includes product identifier; manufacturer or distributor name, address, phone number; emergency phone number; recommended use; restrictions on use. Section 2: Hazard(s) Identification includes all hazards regarding the chemical; required label elements. Section 3: Composition/Information on Ingredients includes information on chemical ingredients; trade secret claims. -

Chin-Type Gas Masks Full-Facepiece Air-Purifying Respirator
Chin-Type Gas Masks Full-Facepiece Air-Purifying Respirator The MSA Chin-Type Gas Mask is a full-facepiece air-purifying respirator with a single canister, designed for respiratory protection against specific gases or a group of gases as indicated by canister identification. Because every life has a purpose... Chin-Type Gas Masks The lightweight, round plastic canister attaches directly to the facepiece, yet permits downward head movement. Chin-Type Gas Masks can be used for many applications including paper mills, chemical plants, agri-business, fumigation and HazMat situations. Choices include a silicone or rubber facepiece in three sizes and four styles, optional carrying/storage case and wall hanger. A belt-mounted option is also available. MSA NIOSH-approved canisters with particulate filters have a five-year shelf life. Round plastic chin canisters are ovidedpr for one of four hazard groups: • Phosphine/ammonia/chlorine/P100 • Organic vapor/P100 • Hydrogen fluoride/chlorine/P100 • Formaldehyde/acid gas/chlorine dioxide/hydrogen sulfide/P100 Gas masks are designed solely to remove specific contaminants from air. Their use is restricted to entry into, or work within, tmospheresa that are within canister limitations. They are not intended for oxygen-deficient atmospheres (less than 19.5% 2O ). Gas masks may be used for escape only from atmospheres in which the contaminant concentration does not exceed the gas mask maximum use concentration. Chin-Type Gas Masks have the following maximum use limitations: Routine use: 50 times the Permissible Exposure Level (PEL) - Do not exceed the Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) concentration. Escape use: contaminant concentrations up to gas mask maximum use concentrations, providing there is sufficient oxygen to support life. -

JACOBS, Ph.D. Food, Drug and Insecticide Admin. U. S. Dept. of Agr. 1927 Chemist Department of Health, City of New York, 1928. Formerly, Lt. U. S. Chemical Warfare Service Reserve INTERSCIENCE PUBLISHERS, INC. NEW YORK, N. Y.-1942 Copyright, 1942, by INTERSCIENCE PUBLISHERS, INC. 215 Fourth Avenue, New York, N. Y. Printed in U. S. A. by WAVERLY PRESS, BALTIMORE, MD. PREFACE Relatively little has been written in the United States of America on the subject of passive defense, or as we would put it, civilian defense against poison gas. One of the very first steps in defense of this nature is a system for the detection, the sampling and the identification of the chemical war- fare agents, and the decontamination of areas and materials polluted by them. It is the aim of this book to present these subjects so that the informa- tion given will be useful to the gas identification officer, the war gas chemist, the decontamination officer, and the health officer. While this book was written primarily for the aforementioned officers, Chapters I, II, III, part of IV and VII should prove of value to the air raid warden and, in general, to all persons dealing with the above mentioned phases of gas defense. It is written so that it can be used for the training of gas identifi- cation officers, as a manual by chemists and decontamination officers, and as a source of information on the analytical chemistry of the war gases. -
142, May 1999 Reuse of Organic Vapor Chemical Cartridges
Technical Data Bulletin #142, May 1999 Reuse of Organic Vapor Chemical Cartridges Introduction One of the most significant changes in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA’s) new 1910.134 respiratory protection standard is the requirement to establish change schedules for chemical cartridges used for gases and vapors. Change schedules are often based on service life measurements or estimates. To best use the service life information, it is necessary to understand how chemical cartridges work. It is especially important when organic vapor cartridges are used against volatile chemicals during more than one work shift. These chemicals may desorb from the carbon when not in use. Inappropriate reuse of the organic vapor cartridges can result in breakthrough occurring earlier than predicted by the service life estimate. For example, when the organic vapor cartridge has been used for chemicals that migrate through the cartridge during the storage or nonuse period, it should not be reused. The decision to reuse the cartridge may have an impact on worker protection and the respiratory protection program Background Chemical cartridges are used on respirators to help remove and lower worker exposures to harmful gases and vapors in the workplace. There are several types of chemical cartridges: organic vapor, ammonia, formaldehyde, mercury vapor and acid gases, such as hydrogen chloride, chlorine and sulfur dioxide. It is important to understand how the different cartridge types work. All chemical cartridges consist of a container filled with a sorbent. A chemical cartridge sorbent is a granular porous material that interacts with the gas or vapor molecule to remove it from the air. -

Respiratory Protection Program
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM PURPOSE During the course of work activities it may be necessary to use respiratory equipment for protection against respiratory hazards. This program’s primary objective is to prevent excessive exposure to harmful dusts, fogs, fumes, mists, gases, smokes, sprays, or vapors. When effective engineering controls are not feasible, or while they are being instituted, appropriate respirators shall be used. This program establishes procedures for respirator selection, use, care, maintenance, medical evaluation, training and storage. RESPIRATORY HAZARD CLASSIFICATION Of the three normally recognized ways toxic materials can enter the body - through the (1) gastrointestinal tract, (2) skin, and (3) lungs – the respiratory system presents the quickest and most direct avenue of entry. This is because of the respiratory system’s direct relationship with the circulatory system and the constant need to oxygenate tissue cells to sustain life. Once the toxic material enters the lungs it then enters the bloodstream. The three basic classifications of respiratory hazards are: 1. Oxygen deficient air 2. Particulate contaminants 3. Gas and vapor contaminants Respiratory hazards exist in many construction work places. Winger Companies, herein referred to as Winger, employees need to be trained to recognize and identify these hazards and to be able to protect themselves. DUSTS – Airborne dusts often represent one of most significant respiratory hazards. Some dusts, such as asbestos, coal dust, and silica, can cause pneumoconiosis, or scarring of the lung with long term exposure. TRACE METALS – Metals such as arsenic and cadmium are contained in low levels in fly ash and boiler tube deposits. If conditions are excessively dusty or if boiler tube deposits are released by cutting or grinding, significant exposure to these substances may occur. -

Respiratory Protection: Breathing Safely
Respiratory Protection: Breathing Safely Before being fit‐tested or required to use a respirator in the workplace, your employer must provide you with a medical evaluation to determine your ability to use a respirator. A respirator may place a physical burden on the user — varying by the type of respirator worn, the job and workplace conditions, and the medical status of the individual. There are two classes of respirators designed to keep you safe on the job: Air‐Purifying Respirators Atmosphere‐Supplying Respirators Air‐purifying respirators remove Atmosphere‐supplying respirators provide contaminants from the air through clean, breathable air from an independent, filters, cartridges, or canisters as uncontaminated source. you breathe. Personal Protective Equipment: Employee Essentials: Breathing Safely, Respirator Resource Copyright 2016 J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc. Air‐Purifying Respirators Filter Classifications Non‐powered, air‐purifying respirator filters are classified with a letter and number code. The letter describes the filter’s ability to function when exposed to oils: N means Not resistant to oil R means somewhat Resistant to oil, and P means oil‐Proof, or very resistant to oil The number refers to the filter’s ability to remove particulates. Filter ratings range from 95 percent to 99.7 percent efficient. The filter classes are: N95, N99, N100, R95, R99, R100, and P95, P99, and P100. So, a “P100” is an oil‐proof filter with nearly 100 percent efficiency. Know that you need a chemical cartridge or canister to remove gas or vapor hazards. Cartridge & Canister Classifications No single cartridge or canister can protect you from all gas or vapor hazards.
