THE TAPECOAT COMPANY MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment,
sparks, and open flame. Vapors may be heavier than air and may travel along the ground before ignition/flashing
back to vapor source. Keep welding or cutting equipment away from product.
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Effects of Overexposure:
?Eyes: Can cause severe irritation and pain, redness, tearing and blurred vision. Repeated and/or
prolonged exposures may result in adverse eye effects such as conjunctivitis or corneal damage.
?Ingestion: Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Aspiration of swallowed
material into the lungs can cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal. Absorption through
gastrointestinal tract may produce liver damage and symptoms of central nervous system depression
ranging from light-headedness to unconsciousness.
?Inhalation: Irritation of the respiratory tract or nervous system depression producing such effects as
giddiness, headache, dizziness, nausea, and loss of consciousness. If severe, death may occur.
?Skin: Prolonged or repeated contact with skin may cause irritation, defatting and/or dermatitis. Repeated
and/or prolonged contact with the skin may cause allergic reaction or sensitization.
Preexisting eye, skin, and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by any exposure to this product. Exercise
due care when handling this product.
Some of the information presented and conclusions drawn herein are from sources other than direct test data on
the product itself. The effects of chronic exposure to this product have not been fully investigated but reports
have associated repeated and prolonged exposure to paint solvents with brain and nervous system damage.
This product is for industrial use only.
Synergistic materials: None known
Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
?Eyes: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes lifting upper and lower lids and seek immediate medical
attention.
?Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. This material is not soluble. Do not give fluids. If spontaneous
vomiting is inevitable, prevent aspiration by keeping the victim's head below the knees. Get immediate
medical attention.
?Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Call a physician if necessary. If breathing stops, begin artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.
?Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Flush with water. Follow by washing with additional soap and
water. Seek medical attention if irritation from contact persists. Remove and launder contaminated
clothing before reuse.
Chemicals contained herein listed as carcinogens or potential carcinogens:
NTP: NONE IARC: NONE OSHA: NONE
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Stable
Conditions to Avoid: Avoid open flames, welding arcs or other high temperature sources which induce thermal
decomposition.
Incompatibility (Material to Avoid): Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents (i.e. perchlorates, nitrates, etc.),
Cleaning solutions, such as chromerge (sulfuric acid/dichromate) and aqua regia. A reaction accompanied by
large heat release occurs when the product is mixed with acids.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Incomplete combustion may generate carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide,
and other toxic vapors from organic compounds. Nitrogen oxides may be evolved in a fire, nitrogen oxide can
react with water vapors to form corrosive nitric acid (TLV=2 ppm).
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled: Shut off and eliminate all ignition sources. Keep
people away. Recover free liquid. Add absorbent to spill area. Avoid breathing vapors. Ventilate enclosed

spaces. Keep out of streams and sewers. Place absorbed material in properly sealed non-leaking containers for
proper disposal. Advise proper authorities if product has entered or may enter sewers, watercourses, or
extensive land areas. Dike properly to contain a large spill.
Waste disposal method: If recovery is not feasible, admix with dry soil, sand or non-reactive absorbent and
place in a container or dumpster pending disposal. Shovel spilled chemical product into empty, dry container for
later disposal or recovery. Place in metal containers for recovery or disposal. Flush area with water spray.
Clean-up personnel must be equipped with self contained breathing apparatus and butyl rubber protective
clothing. Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State, and local regulations.
SECTION VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Respiratory Protection: The use of respiratory protection depends on the vapor concentration above the TLV-
PEL. Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved cartridge-type particulate/vapor respirator or air-supplied mask in confined
areas.
Ventilation: Work in well ventilated areas. All application areas should be ventilate in accordance with OSHA
Regulation 29 CFR 1910. Local exhaust must be provided to keep LEL and TLV-PEL of the hazardous
ingredients below acceptable limits of exposure.
Protective Gloves: Solvent resistant gloves should be worn for prolonged or repeated contact.
Eye Protection: Chemical goggles, face shield.
Other Protective Equipment: Use as necessary depending upon the method of application and immediate
working environment.
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Hygienic Practices: Always wash hands after using this material and before eating, drinking, or smoking.
Precautions for Handling and Storing: Keep product containers cool, dry and away from any source of
ignition. Use and store this product with adequate ventilation. Keep containers properly closed when not in use.
For storage conditions refer to OSHA Regulation 29 CFR 1910.106.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: May generate toxic or irritating combustion products. Contact of liquid
with skin must be avoided. May generate carbon monoxide gas. May generate toxic nitrogen oxide gases. May
generate ammonia gas.
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Effects of Overexposure:
?Eyes: Corrosive to eyes. Severe eye irritant.
?Ingestion: Oral LD50 (rat): >2200 mg/kg (estimate). See Emergency and First Aid Procedures below.
?Inhalation: Severe respiratory tract irritant. See Emergency and First Aid Procedures below.
?Skin: Dermal LD50 (rabbit): >1000 mg/kg (estimate). Severe skin irritant. May cause skin sensitization.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure (Acute Effects): Burns of the eye may cause blindness. Contact of
undiluted product with the eyes or skin quickly causes severe irritation and pain and may cause burns, necrosis
and permanent injury. Inhalation of vapors may severely damage contacted tissue and produce scarring. Risk of
exposure to hazardous concentrations of vapor under normal working conditions in a well ventilated space is
minimal. However, conditions such as spraying, or sudden release of hot liquid, which generate an aerosol, mists
or fog should be avoided.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure (Possible Longer Term Effects): Repeated and/or prolonged exposure
may cause allergic reaction/sensitization. Repeated and/or prolonged exposures may result in : adverse skin
effects (such as rash, irritation or corrosion); adverse eye effects (such as conjunctivitis or corneal damage), liver
disorders (such as jaundice of liver enlargement), Kidney disorders (such as edema or proteinuria) , adverse
respiratory effects (such as cough, tightness of chest or shortness of breath).
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Asthma, chronic respiratory disease (e.g. Bronchitis,
Emphysema), Skin disorders and allergies. Eye disease. Kidney disorder. Liver disorders.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
?Eyes: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes lifting upper and lower lids and seek medical attention.
?Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give 3 to 4 glasses of mild or water. Never give anything by mouth to
an unconscious person. Avoid aspiration of vomited material. Get immediate medical attention.
?Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Call a physician. If breathing stops, begin artificial respiration.
?Skin: Remove product and immediately flush affected area with water for at least 15 minutes. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes. Except in the most minor, superficial and localized burns, cover the
affected area with a sterile dressing or clean sheeting and transport for medical care. Do not apply
greases or ointments. Control shock, if present. Launder contaminated clothing prior to reuse.
Contaminated leather wear should be discarded.
