Section 2 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: A colored paste product with a very slight ammonia odor. WARNING! May cause eye, skin, nose,
throat and respiratory tract irritation. Harmful if swallowed or absorbed through the skin.
Refer to other MSDS sections for other detailed information.
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: May cause skin irritation. Harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. Inhalation may cause irritation to the respiratory tract (nose,
mouth, mucous membranes).
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards: Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause respiratory system damage.
Prolonged and repeated skin contact may cause irritation and possibly dermatitis. Overexposure may cause kidney,
cardiovascular, skin and liver damage.
Formaldehyde vapor is a known animal carcinogen according to OSHA and NTP and is considered possibly carcinogenic
to humans by inhalation. The International Agency for Research on Cancer considers formaldehyde to be a human
carcinogen.

This product contains vinyl acetate which is classified as a class 2B carcinogen by IARC. Vinyl acetate was found to
cause cancer in the respiratory tract of laboratory animals. There is no evidence that vinyl acetate causes cancer in
humans. The IARC published a monograph on vinyl acetate (1995). In this monograph, IARC indicates "there is
inadequate evidence in humans for carcinogenicity of vinyl acetate. There is limited evidence in experimental animals for
the carcinogenicity of vinyl acetate." Normally, this lack of conclusive evidence would place a substance in the IARC 3
classification (not classified as a human carcinogen). However, because vinyl acetate is metabolized to acetaldehyde,
which has an IARC 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans) classification, it also has been listed under Category 2B.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye Contact

First Aid - Eye Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes
until irritation subsides. Get medical attention immediately.
First Aid - Skin Contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid if
symptoms persist. Remove and wash contaminated clothing.
First Aid - Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If
continued breathing difficulty is experienced, get medical attention immediately.
First Aid - Ingestion: If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Get medical attention immediately.
Note to Physician: None.
COMMENTS: Call Medical Emergency at 1-800-327-3874 if any irritation or complication arises from any of the above
routes of entry.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Extinguishing Media: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: No special protective measures against fire required.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand (NIOSH approved or
equivalent) and full protective gear. Use water spray to cool exposed surfaces.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Wear proper protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Use
absorbent material or scrape up dried material and place in container.
Section 7 - Handling And Storage
Handling: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! DO NOT TAKE INTERNALLY. Avoid breathing vapor and contact
with eyes, skin and clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Open all windows and doors or use other means to
ensure cross-ventilation and fresh air entry during application and drying. Odor is not an adequate warning for hazardous
conditions. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Storage: Do not store at temperatures above 120 degrees F. Store containers away from excessive heat and freezing.
Close container after each use. Store away from caustics and oxidizers.

Exposure Notes:
50-00-0 Formaldehyde is a specially regulated substance for which an OSHA chemical-specific exposure standard exits.
Detailed information regarding this substance may be found in 29 CFR 1910.1048. Medical surveillance information
regarding this substance may be found in Appendix C to 29 CFR 1910.1048.
Precautionary Measures: Please refer to other sections and subsections of this MSDS.
Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne levels. Ensure adequate
ventilation, especially in confined areas. Local ventilation of emission sources may be necessary to maintain ambient
concentrations below recommended exposure limits.
Respiratory Protection: In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. A NIOSH-approved air
purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be necessary under certain circumstances where
airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. A respiratory protection program that meets the OSHA
1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
Skin Protection: Rubber gloves.
Eye Protection: Goggles or safety glasses with side shields.
00077095001 English Page 4 of 6
Other protective equipment: Not required under normal use.
Hygienic Practices: Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Remove and wash contaminated clothing
before re-use.
Important: Listed Permissible Exposure Levels (PEL) are from the U.S. Dept. of Labor OSHA Final Rule Limits (CFR 29 1910.1000); these limits may vary
between states.
Note: An employee's skin exposure to substances having a "YES" in the "SKIN" column in the table above shall be prevented or reduced to the extent
necessary under the circumstances through the use of gloves, coveralls, goggles or other appropriate personal protective equipment, engineering controls or work
practices.

Significant Data with Possible Relevance to Humans: This product contains trace amounts of free formaldehyde.
OSHA and NTP identify formaldehyde as a potential carcinogen. IARC identifies formaldehyde as a human carcinogen.
Formaldehyde has been shown to cause mutations in a variety of in-vitro test systems, the significance of which to
humans is unknown. There should be minimal risk when used with ventilation adequate to keep the atmospheric
concentration of formaldehyde below the recommended exposure limits.
Maintain adequate ventilation to prevent exposure above current OSHA / ACGIH exposure limits. Workplace monitoring of
the air to define formaldehyde exposure levels may be necessary.
In a two-year inhalation study, rats showed carcinogenic effects in the respiratory system at 15 ppm of formaldehyde.
