Primary Entry Routes: Dermal, inhalation of vapors 1
F
Target Organs: Skin 0
R
Inhalation: Vapors, which are not significant unless heated or sprayed, can cause irritation to respiratory
tract.
Eye: May cause irritation, redness, and tearing.
Skin: Contact will cause irritation, reddening, and cracking of the skin.
Ingestion: May cause irritation of the digestive tract.
Carcinogenicity: These products contain Carbon Black, which is classified as a possible carcinogen by
IARC.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure: Pre-existing skin disorders.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
Inhalation: Remove too fresh air; get medical attention.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove by washing with soap and water.
Ingestion: Induce vomiting; get immediate medical attention.
After first aid, get appropriate in-plant, paramedic, or community medical support.

MSDS No. 512 Revision: 0010
Section 5 - Fire-Fighting Measures (continued)
Hazardous Combustion Products: oxides of carbon, oxides of sulfur, hydrocarbons, and hydrogen
sulfide.
Fire-Fighting Equipment: Because fire may produce toxic thermal decomposition products, wear a self-
contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full facepiece operated in pressure-demand or positive-
pressure mode.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Spill /Leak Procedures
Small Spills: Absorb or scrape up excess into suitable container for disposal.
Large Spills
Containment: For large spills, dike and contain. Do not release into sewers or waterways.
Cleanup: Absorb or scrape up excess into suitable container for disposal.
Regulatory Requirements: Follow applicable OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910.120).
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling Precautions: Do not ingest. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Good general hygiene
is essential to controlling long term exposure
Storage Requirements: Store at ambient temperature.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls
Ventilation: Provide general or local exhaust ventilation systems to maintain airborne concentrations
below OSHA PELs (Sec. 2). Local exhaust ventilation is preferred because it prevents contaminant
dispersion into the work area by controlling it at its source.
Administrative Controls
Respiratory Protection: Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection and use. Follow OSHA
respirator regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) and, if necessary, wear an MSHA/NIOSH-approved respirator.
Select respirator based on its suitability to provide adequate worker protection for given working conditions,
level of airborne contamination, and presence of sufficient oxygen. For emergency or non-routine
operations (cleaning spills, reactor vessels, or storage tanks), wear an SCBA. Warning! Air-purifying
respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. If respirators are used, OSHA requires
a written respiratory protection program that includes at least: medical certification, training, fit testing,
periodic environmental monitoring, maintenance, inspection, cleaning, and convenient, sanitary storage
areas.
Protective Clothing/Equipment: Wear chemically protective gloves, boots, and aprons to prevent
prolonged or repeated skin contact. Wear protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles, per OSHA
eye- and face-protection regulations (29 CFR 1910.133). Contact lenses are not eye protective devices.
Appropriate eye protection must be worn instead of, or in conjunction with contact lenses.
Safety Stations: Make emergency eyewash stations, safety/quick-drench showers, and washing facilities
available in work area.
Contaminated Equipment: Separate contaminated work clothes from street clothes. Launder before reuse.
Remove this material from your shoes and clean personal protective equipment.
Comments: Never eat, drink, or smoke in work areas. Practice good personal hygiene after using this
material, especially before eating, drinking, smoking, using the toilet, or applying cosmetics.
