The information provided herein cannot beused as a substitute for expert safety and medical advice asprovided in an appropriate MSDS, but rather as a supplementto such advice.4. Description of Product (See T

8、able 1)4.1 Bisphenol A (BPA) is not classified as a hazardouschemical by the Department of Transportation, and is, thereforenot subject to DOT regulations governing the transportation ofhazardous articles. Bisphenol A is normally transported inseveral types of containers including cloth and paper ba

9、gs, bulktrucks, and covered hopper cars. (See Table 1.)4.2 While bisphenol A (BPA) is dangerous when handledimproperly, particularly at elevated temperatures, its unloadingneed not be hazardous provided the hazards are recognized andhandling instructions are rigidly observed as detailed here andin a

Hazards5.1 HealthConsult current OSHA regulations and suppli-ers Material Safety Data Sheets for all materials used in thispractice.5.1.1 Aside from the risk of thermal burns in handling BPAwhen molten, and a possibility of dermatitis from impurities,particularly in crude grade

11、s, industrial use does not present asignificant health hazard. However, ordinary precautions mustbe observed to protect personnel from contact with moltenBPA or excessive exposure to dusts or high concentrations ofvapor.5.1.2 Precautions must be observed to protect personnelfrom excessive inhalation

12、 of vapors and dust.5.2 Fire:5.2.1 BPA in both the solid and liquid form is combustibleand introduces a potential fire hazard when it is stored,handled, or used.5.2.2 BPA vapors or dust can form explosive mixtures withair.5.2.3 Dry chemicals, carbon dioxide, foam, and water canall be used in fightin

Protective Equipment6.1 Employees who work with BPA should be well trainedand should maintain safe working conditions. They should berequired to rea

16、d an appropriate MSDS for BPA in its entiretyand consult appropriate, local, safety personnel if they haveany questions or concerns. Persons handling moltenbisphenol-A need to exercise particular care.7. First Aid7.1 Consult an appropriate MSDS for BPA with regards tofirst aid measures that should b

17、e taken. In particular, extremecare must be observed handling molten BPA as it can causesevere thermal burns.8. Safety Precautions8.1 Exercise care to prevent spills and leaks. If they dooccur, only properly protected personnel should remain in thecontaminated area in accordance with the instruction

18、s in anappropriate MSDS. All spill-related activities should complywith applicable EPA, OSHA, and local regulations and laws.8.2 Because of fire and dust explosion hazards, do notpermit open flames in the vicinity of tank carriers, othershipping containers, or storage tanks. Provide all electricalfi

19、xtures with vapor-proof globes and explosion-proof safetydevices. Ground tank carriers by an approved method. Prohibitsmoking. All pneumatic conveying should be done withnitrogen or other inert gas.8.3 Any person sampling or handling these products shouldhave consulted an appropriate MSDS for specif

20、ic first aidinstructions and equipment to have available for use in theevent of personal contact or exposure.8.4 Conduct sampling and handling operations in accor-dance with the instructions in an appropriate MSDS.9. Unloading Hopper Cars or Hopper Trucks9.1 Observe all safety precautions as outline

21、d in Section 8and in an appropriate MSDS. Always follow shippers instruc-tions for unloading, and read and observe all caution markingson both sides of the hopper or dome.9.2 Opening of the hopper car dome cover and attachmentof delivery lines should all be done by accepted safetyprocedures.10.

22、ling Solid Bisphenol A10.1 Bulk QuantitiesTake a representative sample, pref-erably from a falling BPA stream, using a straight-pathsampler. Adjust sampler feed rate, slot width, cutter speed, andfrequency to collect 227-g of sample per 4540 kg of BPA.10.2 Bags (22.7 kg):10.2.1 Using a small thief,

23、203 to 305 mm, remove about113 g of sample from 1 bag out of every 40 bags approximately907 kg of BPA. Take the sample from the filling ear or, ifnecessary, by opening one corner of the bag. Place each samplein a plastic bag. Tightly secure the sample bag to minimizeabsorption of moisture. Label wit
