Summary Report
Reference No: PLC/516
Carter Holt Harvey (ABN: 77 000 601 892) of Como Office Tower, 644 Chapel Street,
South Yarra VIC 3141 has submitted a synthetic polymer of low concern (PLC) notification
statement in support of their application for an assessment certificate for SI-310-43. The
notified polymer is intended to be used as a component of printing inks. Up to 100 tonnes of
the notified polymer will be imported per annum for each of the first five years.
ASSESSMENT OF PUBLIC, OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY AND
ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
Hazard Assessment
The notified polymer contains combined rosin that is not likely to cause sensitisation.
However, up to 11% residual rosin monomers are present. Thus, the product described in the
MSDS is classified as R43, and may cause sensitisation by skin contact.
However, analogous polymers have been shown not to be sensitisers. Also the notified
polymer meets the PLC criteria and can therefore be considered to be of low hazard.
Occupational Health and Safety
There is Low Concern to occupational health and safety under the conditions of the
occupational settings described.
Public Health
There is Negligible Concern to public health when used in the proposed manner.
Environmental Effects
The polymer is not considered to pose a risk to the environment based on its reported use
pattern.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Control Measures
Occupational Health and Safety
? Employers should implement the following safe work practices to minimise
occupational exposure during use of the notified chemical:
- Prevent splashes and spills.
? Service personnel should wear long impervious PVC gloves and overalls and ensure
adequate ventilation is present during routine maintenance and repairs.
Guidance in selection of personal protective equipment can be obtained from Australian,
Australian/New Zealand or other approved standards.
