SECTION 8 – EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONALPROTECTION
Occupational Exposure Limits
:
Occupational Exposure Limits : Threshold Limit Values
Threshold Limit Value (TWA )
=
80 ppm (D’Limonene)
Exposure Standards (TWA) is the time-Weighted average airborne concentration over an eight-hour working day, for
a five day working week over an entire working life. According to current knowledge this concentration should neither
impair the health or, cause undue discomfort to, nearly all workers.
Engineering Control Measures
: Provide sufficient ventilation to keep airborne levels below exposure
limit. Where vapours or mists are generated, particularly in enclosed areas, and natural ventilation is
inadequate a flameproof ventilation system is required
Personal Protective Equipment
:
Eye:
Safety glasses with side shields
Hands:
Impervious plastic or rubber gloves.
Other: Not applicable
Respirator:
Use with adequate ventilation.
Always wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet.
Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storage and reuse.

SECTION 11 – TOXOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Health Effects
No adverse health effects expected if the material is handled in accordance with the Material Safety Data
Sheet. Symptoms that may arise if the material is mishandled are :
Acute Effects
Swallowing:
Ingestion causes burning sensation in mouth and stomach, nausea, vomiting
and salivation. Minute amounts aspirated into the lungs can produce a
severe hemorrhagic pneumonitis with severe pulmonary injury.
Eye:
Will cause eye irritation. Splashes cause severe irritation, possible corneal
burns and eye damage.
Skin:
Skin contact results in loss of natural oils and often results in a characteristic
dermatitis. May be absorbed through the skin.
