Hazardous Components OSHA ACGIH OTHER %
(Common Names, CAS Number) PEL TLV LIMITS OPTION
Bisphenol A/Epichlorohydrin
based epoxy resin* (25068-38-6) NE NE NE 60-100%

Bisphenol-A. These raw materials are consumed in the process. Residual levels of Epichlorohydrin are
controlled to 1ppm, max, in the product.
Section 3 - PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
Boiling Point: >500F Specific Gravity (H2O=1): 1.17
Vapor Density (Air=1): NA Melting Point: NE
Vapor Pressure (mm Hg): 0.03 @ 77F Evaporation Rate (Butyl Acetate = 1): NA
Solubility in Water: Negligible.
Appearance & Odor: Light yellow colored viscous liquid.
Section 4 - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA:

Extinguishing Media: Water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Material will not burn unless preheated. Do not enter confined fire
space without full bunker gear (helmet/face shield, bunker coat, gloves & rubber boats). Use positive
pressure NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus. Cool fire exposed containers with
water.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Heating of resin above 300F in presence of air may cause slow
oxidative decomposition. Above 500F polymerization may occur. Some curing agents, e.g. aliphatic
amines can produce exothermic reactions which in large masses can cause runaway polymerization &
charring of reactants. Fumes & vapors from these thermal & chemical decompositions vary widely in
composition/toxicity. DO NOT BREATHE FUMES. Unidentified fumes & vapors may be toxic.
Section 5 - REACTIVITY DATA:
Stability: Stable XX Conditions to Avoid: Keep away from open flames & high temperatures.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Strong oxidizing agents, strong Lewis or mineral acids, strong
mineral & organic bases, esp. primary & secondary aliphatic amines.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon monoxide, aldehydes, acids & other organic substances
may be formed during combustion (>500F) temperature degradation.
Hazardous Polymerization: May Occur __ May Not Occur XX (Avoid heating >300F).
Section 6 - HEALTH HAZARD DATA:
Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation: YES Skin: YES Ingestion: YES
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Z-Poxy 30 Minute Formula - Resin - Part A Page 2 of 2
Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic):
Product moderately irritating to eyes, skin; contact with product at elevated temperatures can result
in thermal burns; may cause skin sensitization; low order of acute oral toxicity noted; unlikely to be
inhalation hazard due to low volatility.
Carcinogenicity: NTP: No IARC Monographs: No OSHA Regulated: No
First Aid Procedures:
Eye contact - irritation: flush eyes with copious amounts of water for 15 min. while holding eyes
open. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin contact - irritation/rash: remove contaminated clothing and wash with soap/water. Get medical
attention if symptoms persist (contaminated leather articles i.e. shoes should be disposed of as
contaminated waste). NOTE: hot product burns require immediate medical attention.
Inhalation - Remove to fresh air and provide oxygen if breathing is difficult. Get medical attention.
Ingestion - Do not induce vomiting. In general, no treatment unless large amount is ingested,
however, get medical advice.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Emesis induction is normally not necessary in high viscosity, low volatility
products, e.g. neat epoxy resins.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Pre-existing eye/skin disorders or lung
allergies.
Section 7 - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE:
Steps to Be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Product may burn although not readily
ignitable. Use cautious judgment when cleaning up large spills. Respirator and protective equipment
as appropriate. Dike and contain material. Soak up residue with absorbent (clay, sand) materials and
dispose of properly.
Waste Disposal Method: If product becomes waste, not considered hazardous waste by RCRA criteria
(40 CFR 261). Dispose of according to federal, state and local regulations.
Precautions to Be Taken in Handling and Storing: Store in cool, dry place away from open flames
and high temperatures.
Other Precautions: Empty containers may contain product residues & should be disposed of properly.
Section 8 - CONTROL MEASURES:
Respiratory Protection (Specify Type): Organic vapor respirator in areas with poor ventilation.
Ventilation: Local Exhaust: Good Mechanical (General): As needed.
Protective Clothing or Equipment: Safety glasses/goggles with side shields, chemically resistant
gloves and other protective equipment to avoid direct contact.
Work/Hygienic Practices: Avoid contact with eyes or skin. Use in well ventilated area. Wash hands
with soap and water after product use. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse and disposed of
leather articles as contaminated waste.
