(a)Chemical substance and significant new uses subject to reporting.
(1) The chemical substance identified generically as dodecanedioic acid and 1,6-hexanediol polymer with 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl-2,2-dimethylhydracrylate, neopentylglycol, 1,2-ethanediol, adipic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, 2-Oxooxopane, BayFlex 2002H and 1,1'-methylenebis(isocyanatobenzene) (PMN P-17-320) is subject to reporting under this section for the significant new uses described in paragraph (a)(2) of this section.
(2) The significant new uses are:
(i)Protection in the workplace. Requirements as specified in § 721.63(a)(1), (a)(3) through (5), (a)(6)(v) and (vi), and (c) . When determining which persons are reasonably likely to be exposed as required for § 721.63(a)(1) and (4) , engineering control measures (e.g., enclosure or confinement of the operation, general and local ventilation) or administrative control measures (e.g., workplace policies and procedures) shall be considered and implemented to prevent exposure, where feasible. For purposes of § 721.63(a)(5) , respirators must provide a National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) assigned protection factor (APF) of at least 50. For purposes of § 721.63(6) , the airborne form(s) of the substance include particulate (including solids or liquid droplets).
(ii)Hazard communication. Requirements as specified in § 721.72(a) through (d), (f), (g)(1), (g)(2)(i), (ii), (iv), and (v), and (g)(5) . For purposes of § 721.72(g)(1) , this substance may cause: Skin irritation; respiratory complications; mutagenicity. Alternative hazard and warning statements that meet the criteria of the Globally Harmonized System and OSHA Hazard Communication Standard may be used.
(iii)Industrial, commercial, and consumer activities. Requirements as specified in § 721.80(o), (y)(1), and (y)(2) . It is a significant new use to manufacture the substance containing more than 1% residual isocyanate by weight.
(b)Specific requirements. The provisions of subpart A of this part apply to this section except as modified by this paragraph (b).
(1)Recordkeeping. Recordkeeping requirements as specified in § 721.125(a) through (i) are applicable to manufacturers and processors of this substance.
