Acrylates, 2003, Management of the development of an exposure parameters database to be used in conjunction with various reference scenarios to estimate potential monomer exposures to end users of products containing acrylate/methacrylate polymers. Project conducted on behalf of the Basic Acrylic Monomer Manufacturers/Methacrylic Producers Association (BAMM/MPA). The database was developed using Microsoft Access, and contained over 300 exposure parameters that can be used in conducting exposure assessments utilizing various exposure assessment models, including Promise, EASE, Consexpo, Wall-Paint Exposure Model (WPEM), etc. The reference scenarios were developed in conjunction with BAMM/MPA input regarding the major uses of polymer materials, technical literature regarding the products, and research regarding the potential use exposure scenarios.
