SECTION 14 – ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In storage, monomer vapors will migrate from the emulsion and
establish an equilibrium between the head
space in the storage container and the liquid emulsion. Levels in
excess of acceptable exposures can accumulate in the non-vented head
spaces above the emulsion. All procedures appropriate for a confined space entry should be
completed prior to performing any work on a bulk storage tank.
