	TLV stands for threshold limit value The term for standards set by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists in 1968. A term used by ACGIH to express the airborne concentration of a material to which nearly all workers can be exposed day after day without adverse effects. "Workers" means health individuals. The young, old, ill, or naturally susceptible will have lower tolerances and need to take additional precautions.
