airborne levels below the exposure guidelines.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
EYE/FACE PROTECTION:  Use safety glasses.  Safety glasses should be sufficient for most
operations; however, for misty operations wear chemical goggles.
SKIN PROTECTION:  Use gloves impervious to this material.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:  Atmospheric levels should be maintained below the exposure
guideline.  When respiratory protection is required for certain operations, use an approved air-
purifying respirator.  In misty atmospheres, use an approved mist respirator.
EXPOSURE GUIDELINES:  Propylene glycol:  AIHA WEEL is 50 ppm total, 10 mg/m3 aerosol
only.

10.  STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
CHEMICAL STABILITY:  Thermally stable at typical use temperatures.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:  Avoid use temperatures above 450
EF, 232EC.  Product can degrade
at elevated temperatures.  Generation of gas during decomposition can cause pressure in
closed systems.
INCOMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER MATERIALS:  Avoid contact with oxidizing materials.  Avoid
contact with strong acids
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:  Hazardous decomposition products depend
upon temperature, air supply and the presence of other materials.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION:  Will not occur.
