What standard must be followed for ventilation when rubber cement is used or mixed?

The correct standard for ventilation when using or mixing rubber cement is NFPA 91. This standard is specifically related to the guidelines for the safe use and handling of flammable and combustible liquids and materials, which includes adhesives like rubber cement. Proper ventilation is critical in preventing the buildup of vapors that could be harmful or lead to fire hazards, as rubber cement typically contains volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can easily ignite.

NFPA 91 delineates the necessary measures for ensuring adequate airflow and minimizing risks associated with fire or exposure to harmful fumes. Following this standard helps ensure that work environments are safe, especially when using materials that emit dangerous vapors during application and curing processes.

The other available standards do not directly address the specific needs related to ventilation requirements for rubber cement. OSHA 29 CFR 1910 sets forth general workplace safety regulations, while EPA 40 CFR 260 focuses on waste management and hazardous materials, and ANSI Z83.4 pertains to specific appliance standards. Therefore, they do not apply specifically to the ventilation concerns associated with the use of rubber cement.
