2、vision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers procedures for safely sampling andhandling 4,4-isopropylidinediphenol, commercially known asbisphenol A

3、 (BPA), in various solid forms, and as a liquid atelevated temperatures in a manner which represents andpreserves product quality.1.2 Any person sampling or handling this product shouldhave consulted a safety Data Sheet (SDS) for specific first aidinstructions and information on the proper equipment

4、 to haveavailable for use in the event of personal contact or exposure.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

5、 It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazardstatements, see Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and an appropriateSDS.2. Referenced Documents2.1 OSHA R

The information provided herein cannot beused as a substitute for expert safety and medical advice asprovided in an appropriate SDS, but rather as a supplement tosuch advice.4. D

8、escription of Product (See Table 1)4.1 Bisphenol A (BPA) is not classified as a hazardouschemical by the Department of Transportation, and is,therefore, not subject to DOT regulations governing the trans-portation of hazardous articles. Bisphenol A is normallytransported in several types of containe

9、rs including cloth andpaper bags, bulk trucks, and covered hopper cars. (See Table1.)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 obs

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

16、required to read an appropriate SDS for BPA in its entirety andconsult appropriate, local, safety personnel if they have anyquestions or concerns. Persons handling molten bisphenol-Aneed to exercise particular care.7. First Aid7.1 Consult an appropriate SDS for BPAwith regards to firstaid measures t

17、hat should be taken. In particular, extreme caremust be observed handling molten BPA as it can cause severethermal 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

18、 instructions in anappropriate SDS. 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 e

19、lectricalfixtures 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 SDS

20、for specific 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 SDS.9. Unloading Hopper Cars or Hopper Trucks9.1 Observe all safety precautions a

21、s outlined in Section 8and in an appropriate SDS. 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.

22、10. Sampling Solid Bisphenol A10.1 Bulk QuantitiesTake a representative sample, prefer-ably from a falling BPA stream, using a straight-path sampler.Adjust sampler feed rate, slot width, cutter speed, and fre-quency to collect 227-g of sample per 4540 kg of BPA.10.2 Bags (22.7 kg):10.2.1 Using a sma

23、ll thief, 203 to 305 mm, remove about113 g of sample from 1 bag out of every 40 bags (approxi-mately 907 kg) of BPA. Take the sample from the filling ear or,if necessary, by opening one corner of the bag. Place eachsample in a plastic bag. Tightly secure the sample bag tominimize absorption of moist

24、ure. Label with proper identifi-cation and in accordance with OSHA Regulations, or otherappropriate local regulations, or both.10.2.2 Make a composite blend from the individual samplesand mix thoroughly before analyzing.10.2.3 Aluminum, polyethylene, polypropylene, or stainlesssteel-type scoops are

25、recommended for taking samples ofproduct from the bags selected for sampling. Avoid contami-nating the sample with iron or rust.10.3 Extreme care and good judgment are necessary toensure that the samples truly represent the product.10.4 Remove approximately 75 g portions from each of thebags selecte

26、d from a sample unit and place in a plastic bag.Seal the opened bags with suitable tape.10.5 Label the sample container in accordance with OSHAor other appropriate local regulations, or both, to indicate, as aminimum, the date and time, source of the sample, type ofmaterial, purpose of the sample, a

27、nd the name of the sample.10.6 Large Bulk Sacks (500 to 1000 kg):10.6.1 Use a sample thief to collect 227-g samples for each1814 to 2268 kg of material.10.6.2 Place samples in plastic bags. Tightly secure thesample bags to minimize absorption of moisture. Labelsamples in accordance with 10.5.11. Key
