This is a commercial product whose exact ratio of comp
onents may vary slightly. Minor quantities of other non
hazardous ingredients are also possible.
The TWA exposure value is the average airborne concentration of a
particular substance when calculated over a normal 8 hour working day
for a 5
day working week. The STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) is an exposure
value that should not be exceeded for more than 15 minutes and should
not be repeated for more than 4 times per day. There should be at
least 60 minutes between successive exposures at the STEL. The term
"peak "is
used when the TWA limit, because of the rapid action of the substance,
should never be exceeded, even briefly.
