SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Overexposure - Eye: This material can cause severe eye irritation, redness, tearing or blurred vision.
Overexposure - Skin: This material may cause skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated contact may cause redness, burning, defatting or dermatitis. Components of this product can be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts. This product contains an epoxy type resin which may cause skin sensitization.
Overexposure - Inhalation: This material may be irritating to the nose, throat or respiratory tract.
Overexposure - Ingestion:
Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.
Aspiration of material into lungs (during swallowing or vomiting) can cause
chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal.
Overexposure - Chronic Hazards: Components of this product have
been found to cause the following in laboratory animals: CNS damage, blood
changes. Components of this product have been suggested as a cause of CNS
damage in humans.
Medical Conditions Aggravated: Preexisting eye, skin and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by exposure to this product.
Primary Route(s) of Entry: Skin contact - skin absorption - inhalation - ingestion - eye contact.
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: Flush immediately with copious quantities of running water for at least 15 minutes. Take to a physician for definitive medical treatment.
Skin Contact: Remove from skin using soap and water. Remove and launder contaminated clothing.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure. Move to fresh air, seek medical attention.
Ingestion: If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Keep head below hips. Get immediate medical attention.
SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: 170 F (Setaflash
closed cup)
Lower Explosive Limit: 0.8%
Upper Explosuve Limit: 11.2%
Autoingition Temperature: N.A.
Extinguishing Media: Alcohol Foam, CO2, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards: Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Use full protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus with full face shield and positive pressure mode to protect firefighters from hazardous combustion products.
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Steps to be taken in case of material is released or spilled: Avoid breathing vapors. Dike area to prevent material from entering drains or sewers. Remove with inert absorbent.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Keep away from open flame. Warnings apply to empty containers.
Storage: Do not store above 120º F. Keep containers tightly closed. Store large quantities in buildings designed to comply with OSHA 1910.106. Keep from freezing.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls: Provide local exhaust ventilation/general dilution in volume and pattern to keep TLV and LEL of most hazardous ingredient below limits. Heavy solvent vapors should be removed from lower levels of area.
Respiratory Protection: In open areas use NIOSH approved mechanical respirator to remove solid airborne particles of overspray during spray application. In restricted ventilation areas use NIOSH approved chemical and mechanical filters designed to remove a combination of particulate and vapor. In confined areas use NIOSH approved air line type respirator or hood.
Skin Protection: Gloves made of impervious materials are recommended for prolonged or repeated contact with this product.
Eye Protection: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquid. Do not use this material while wearing contact lenses.
Other Protective Equipment: Avoid prolonged contact with contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
Hygienic Practices: Wash hands before smoking or eating. Observe accepted good hygiene practices.
