Section 2 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: Rust Red Solid. No serious effects anticipated under normal conditions of use. Generally not
required under normal conditions of use.
Acute potential Health Effects/Routes of Entry
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: Not applicable under normal conditions of use. Direct contact may cause
temporary redness and discomfort.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: No effects anticipated.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: No serious effects anticipated under normal conditions of use.
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: No known adverse effects.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards. Inhalation of crystalline silica (quartz) can cause cancer based on animal
data, and IARC concludes sufficient evidence in humans (Group 1). Prolonged and repeated overexposure to free
crystalline silica dust above the TLV level may cause scarring of the lungs with cough and shortness of breath. A delayed
lung injury, silicosis may result from breathing free silica. Fillers are encapsulated and not expected to be released from
product under normal conditions of use.
Medical Conditions Prone to Aggravation by Exposure: Pre-existing eye, skin and respiratory disorders may be
aggravated by exposure.

Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: This product not expected to ignite under normal conditions of use.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Evacuate hazard area of unprotected personnel. Use accepted fire fighting
techniques. Wear full firefighting protective clothing, including self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA)
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Follow exposure controls/personal protection guidelines in
Section 8. Avoid contact with material. Contain and scrape up material and transfer to appropriate container for disposal.
Keep out of water courses. Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
Section 7 - Handling And Storage
Handling: Handle in compliance with common hygienic practices. Clean hands thoroughly after handling.
Storage: Keep container closed when not in use in a dry, well ventilated warehouse. Keep away from heat and all ignition
sources. Do not store with oxidizing agents
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Not required under normal conditions of use. Use only in well ventilated areas. Provide maximum
ventilation in enclosed areas.
Respiratory Protection: Not required under normal conditions of use.
Skin Protection: Recommend impervious gloves and clothing to avoid skin contact. If material penetrates to skin, change
gloves and clothing. The use of protective creams may be beneficial to certain individuals. Protective creams should be
applied before exposure.
Eye Protection: Generally not required under normal conditions of use. Recommend safety glasses with side shields or
chemical goggles to avoid eye contact.
Other protective equipment: Eye wash and safety showers should be readily available. Use professional judgment in
the selection, care, and use.
Hygienic Practices: Wash with soap and water before eating, drinking, smoking, applying cosmetics, or using toilet
facilities. Use of a hand cleaner is recommended. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
