space without full bunker gear (helmet with face shield, bunker coats, gloves and rubber boots), including a positive
pressure, NIOSH approved, self-contained breathing apparatus. Cool surrounding equipment, fire-exposed containers and
structures with water. Container areas exposed to direct flame contact should be cooled with large quantities of water
(500 gallons water per minute flame impingement exposure) to prevent weakening of container structure.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
Decomposition and/or products of combustion may be toxic.
======================== SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA =======================
STABILITY: Normally Stable.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID
Avoid strong acids or bases in bulk and elevated temperatures.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID)
Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, strong bases.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BYPRODUCTS
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, phenolic derivative.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Mixing large quantities (1 gallon) with amines or
epoxy hardeners can cause heat build-up and hazardous reaction.
==================== SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA =======================
INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Exposure to vapors at elevated temperatures may cause irritation to respiratory tract and difficulty breathing.
SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
May cause irritation.
SKIN ABSORPTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
A single exposure is unlikely to result in harm. Repeated exposure can cause sensitization.
INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Oral toxicity is low. No hazards expected from normal industrial exposure.
HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC)
Acute Oral Effects(LD-50): Rat >5000 mg/kg
Acute Dermal (LD-50): Rabbit >6000 mg/kg
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP CARCINOGEN: NO IARC MONOGRAPHS: NO OSHA REGULATED:
NO
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis (skin condition). Overexposure to vapor, dust or mist may aggravate
existing respiratory conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, and inflammatory or fibrotic respiratory disease.

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eyes: Flush at once with potable water for at least 15 minutes.
Skin: Wash with soap and warm water. Remove contaminated clothes. Wash before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes.
Ingestion: Not likely to occur in normal handling. Give large quantities of water and get medical attention.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
=========== SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE ============
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Avoid contact. Soak up with clay or other absorbent material.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
Place in covered container for disposal. Dispose in an approved incinerator or an approved landfill in accordance with
federal, state and local regulations.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING
Use with good ventilation. Store in cool dry area. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Grinding or other
abrasive action to cured film may develop microcrystalline silica dust. Wear a dust mask during such operations. If
mixture A & B are allowed to remain in the mixing vessel past the pot life deadline, heat and a strong reaction will
result.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
===================== SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES ======================
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
None needed under normal conditions of use.
VENTILATION
Use good general mechanical ventilation and local exhaust.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES
Wear neoprene or natural rubber gloves.
EYE PROTECTION
NIOSH approved saftey glasses or goggles.
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT
Body protection as necessary to prevent skin contact. Wash after handling. Provide eye wash fountain and saftey
shower.
WORK/HYGIENIC PRACTICES
Avoid breathing vapor mist or spray. Provide eye wash fountain and saftey shower. Wash hands thoroughly after use,
before eating or smoking.
