The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has determined that crystalline silica in the form of quartz or
cristobalite that is inhaled from occupational sources is carcinogenic to humans (Group 1- carcinogenic to humans). Refer
to IARC Monograph 68, Silica, Some Silicates and Organic Fibres (published in June 1997) in conjunction with the use of
these materials. The National Toxicology Program (NTP) classifies respirable crystalline silica as "known to be a human
carcinogen". Refer to the 9th Report on Carcinogens (2000). The American Conference of Governmental Industrial
Hygienists (ACGIH) classifies crystalline silica, quartz, as a suspected human carcinogen (Group A2).
Breathing dust containing respirable crystalline silica may not cause noticeable injury or illness even though permanent
lung damage may be occurring. Inhalation of dust may have the following serious chronic health effects: Excessive
inhalation of respirable dust can cause pneumoconiosis, a respiratory disease, which can result in delayed, progressive,
disabling and sometimes fatal lung injury. Symptoms include cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, non-specific chest
illness and reduced pulmonary function. Smoking exacerbates this disease. Individuals with pneumoconiosis are
predisposed to develop tuberculosis. There is some evidence that breathing respirable crystalline silica or the disease
silicosis is associated with an increased incidence of significant disease endpoints such as scleroderma (an immune
system disorder manifested by fibrosis of the lungs, skin and other internal organs) and kidney disease. Prolonged,
repeated, or high exposures may cause weakness and depression of the central nervous system.
Formaldehyde vapor is a known animal carcinogen according to OSHA and NTP and is considered possibly carcinogenic
to humans by inhalation. The International Agency for Research on Cancer considers formaldehyde to be a human
carcinogen.
A mixture of diisodecyl phthalate and diisononyl phthalate has been tested in a two-generation toxicity study in laboratory
animals. No effects on reproductive parameters were seen. However, a small but statistically significant increase in early
offspring mortality was seen at high oral doses. The significance of this to humans is uncertain.
The mixture of phthalate esters contained within this product has been shown to cause developmental effects at high
doses in laboratory animals when administered orally by gavage in a developmental study and developmental and fertility
effects when administered at high doses by feed in a two-generation reproduction study. The potential risk from
occupational and consumer exposure is considered to be very low, based on limited relevance of the rodent findings to
humans and the large safety margins between exposure and the effect levels.
Ethylene Glycol may cause kidney and liver damage upon prolonged and repeated overexposures. Studies have shown
that repeated inhalation of ethylene glycol has produced adverse cardiovascular changes in laboratory animals. Ethylene
glycol has been shown to cause birth defects in laboratory animals.

50-00-0 Formaldehyde is a specially regulated substance for which an OSHA chemical-specific exposure standard exits.
Detailed information regarding this substance may be found in 29 CFR 1910.1048. Medical surveillance information
regarding this substance may be found in Appendix C to 29 CFR 1910.1048.
Precautionary Measures: Contact lenses pose a special hazard; soft lenses may absorb and all lenses concentrate
irritants.
Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne levels. Ensure adequate
ventilation, especially in confined areas. Local ventilation of emission sources may be necessary to maintain ambient
concentrations below recommended exposure limits.
Respiratory Protection: In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. A NIOSH-approved air
purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be necessary under certain circumstances where
airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. A respiratory protection program that meets the OSHA
1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has recommended that the permissible exposure limit be
changed to 50 micrograms respirable free silica per cubic meter of air (0.05 mg/m3) as determined by a full shift sample
up to 10-hour work shift.
Skin Protection: Rubber gloves. Natural rubber, butyl rubber and polyvinyl chloride gloves are not suitable protection
against the phthalates contained within this product; neoprene is recommended.
Eye Protection: Goggles or safety glasses with side shields.
Other protective equipment: Not required under normal use.
Hygienic Practices: Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Remove and wash contaminated clothing
before re-use.
Important: Listed Permissible Exposure Levels (PEL) are from the U.S. Dept. of Labor OSHA Final Rule Limits (CFR 29 1910.1000); these limits may vary
between states.
Note: An employee's skin exposure to substances having a "YES" in the "SKIN" column in the table above shall be prevented or reduced to the extent
necessary under the circumstances through the use of gloves, coveralls, goggles or other appropriate personal protective equipment, engineering controls or work
practices.

Significant Data with Possible Relevance to Humans: This product contains trace amounts of free formaldehyde.
OSHA and NTP identify formaldehyde as a potential carcinogen. IARC identifies formaldehyde as a human carcinogen.
Formaldehyde has been shown to cause mutations in a variety of in-vitro test systems, the significance of which to
humans is unknown. There should be minimal risk when used with ventilation adequate to keep the atmospheric
concentration of formaldehyde below the recommended exposure limits.
Maintain adequate ventilation to prevent exposure above current OSHA / ACGIH exposure limits. Workplace monitoring of
the air to define formaldehyde exposure levels may be necessary.
In a two-year inhalation study, rats showed carcinogenic effects in the respiratory system at 15 ppm of formaldehyde.
