PRODUCT TOXICOLOGY
PRODUCT INFORMATION: Product may contain small amounts of residual vinyl acetate. Vinyl
acetate vapors have been shown to cause tumors in the respiratory tract
of laboratory animals exposed to 600 ppm over a lifetime; 200 ppm
caused irritation; 50 ppm produced no observable effect. There is no
evidence of adverse effects to humans exposed to levels at or below the
ACGIH TLV. Although this product has not been tested for chronic
effects it is judged as having a low order of toxicity based on component
information.
