Section 3 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: Contains SILICA which can cause cancer. Risk of Cancer depends on duration and
level of exposure.
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: May cause skin irritation. May cause allergic skin reaction.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: May cause nose and throat irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards: Crystalline silica is known to cause silicosis, a noncancerous
lung disease. Exposure is by route of inhalation. If material is in a liquid matrix it is unlikely to be inhaled.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Skin Absorption, Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye Contact
Medical Conditions Prone to Aggravation by Exposure: If sensitized to amines, epoxies, or other
chemicals do not use. See a physician if a medical condition exists.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
First Aid - Eye Contact: If material gets into eyes, flush with water immediately for 15 minutes. Consult a
physician.
First Aid - Skin Contact: In case of contact, wash skin immediately with soap and water.
First Aid - Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Administer oxygen if necessary. Consult a physician if
symptoms persist or exposure was severe.
First Aid - Ingestion: If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point, F: 170F (77C) Lower Explosive Limit, %: 0.8
Upper Explosive Limit, %: 10.9
(Setaflash)
Extinguishing Media: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: This product contains less than 1% volatile components. The amount
of vapors that could accumulate are minimal. However, vapors are heavier than air and could travel long
distances, ignite, and flashback. Eliminate all ignition sources. Keep away from sparks, open flames, and heat
sources. All electrical equipment and installations should be made and grounded in accordance with the
National Electrical Code. In areas where explosion hazards exist, workers should be required to use
nonferrous tools and to wear conductive and non-sparking shoes.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Evacuate hazard area of unprotected personnel. Use a NIOSH approved
self-contained breathing unit and complete body protection. Cool surrounding containers with water in case of
fire exposure.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Eliminate all ignition sources. Handling equipment
must be grounded to prevent sparking. Evacuate the area of unprotected personnel. Wear appropriate
personal protection clothing and equipment. Follow exposure controls/personal protection guidelines in Section
8. Contain and soak up residual with an aborbent (clay or sand). Take up absorbant material and seal tightly
for proper disposal. Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Refer to Section 15 for
SARA Title III and CERCLA information.
Section 7 - Handling And Storage
Handling: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Wear
personal protection equipment. Do not breathe vapors. Wash thoroughly after handling. If pouring or
transferring materials, ground all containers and tools. Do not weld, heat, cut or drill on full or empty containers.
Use only in accordance with Carboline application instructions, container label and Product Data Sheet. Avoid
breathing vapors or spray mist.
Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames and oxidizing agents. Keep containers closed. Store in a
cool, dry place with adequate ventilation.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Use explosion-proof ventilation when required to keep below health exposure
guidelines and Lower Explosion Limit (LEL).
Respiratory Protection: Use only with ventilation to keep levels below exposure guidelines listed in Section 2.
User should test and monitor exposure levels to ensure all personnel are below guidelines. If not sure, or not
able to monitor, use MSHA/NISOH approved supplied air respirator. Follow all current OSHA requirements for
respirator 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: 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.
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. Leather
shoes can absorb and allow hazardous materials to pass through. Check shoes carefully after soaking before
reuse.
