recommendations.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS BY ROUTE OF ENTRY
EYE: Can cause minor irritation, tearing and reddening.
SKIN: Can cause minor skin irritation, defatting, and dermatitis.
INHALATION: Can cause minor respiratory irritation. Inhalation of dusts produced during cutting, grinding or
sanding of this product may cause irritation of the respiratory tract.
Inhalation of high concentrations may result in central nervous system (CNS) effects such as dizziness, weakness,
fatigue, nausea, headache, and lack of coordination.
INGESTION: Ingestion is not an anticipated route of exposure.
LONG-TERM (CHRONIC) HEALTH EFFECTS
TARGET ORGAN(S): Lungs Blood Liver Central nervous system
REGULATED CARCINOGEN STATUS:
Unless noted below, this product does not contain regulated levels of NTP, IARC, ACGIH, or OSHA listed
carcinogens.
EXISTING HEALTH CONDITIONS AFFECTED BY EXPOSURE: Lung disease; Blood disorders (like anemia)
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
IF IN EYES: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes retracting eyelids often. Tilt the
head to prevent chemical from transferring to the uncontaminated eye. Get immediate medical attention and monitor
the eye daily as advised by your physician.
IF ON SKIN: Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder. Get medical attention if
irritation develops or persists.
IF VAPORS INHALED: Remove to fresh air. Call a physician if symptoms persist.
IF SWALLOWED: No hazard in normal industrial use. Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention if
symptoms develop. Provide medical care provider with this MSDS. Induce vomiting as a last measure. Induced
vomiting may lead to aspiration of the material into the lungs potentially causing chemical pneumonitis that may be
fatal.
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASH POINT: Non flammable
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: Not established
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (% in air): Not established
UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (% in air): Not established
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: There is a possibility of pressure buildup in closed containers
when heated. Water spray may be used to cool the containers.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: Persons exposed to products of combustion should wear self-
contained breathing apparatus and full protective equipment.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide Chlorine containing gases
