3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview
Appearance, form, odor: colorless viscous liquid with slightly pungent odor.
WARNING! Contains Cyanoacrylate Esters. Can cause severe eye injury. Bonds body tissue in seconds.
Potential health effects
Skin contact Skin absorption Eye contact Inhalation Ingestion
Primary routes of exposure:
Symptoms of acute overexposure:
Skin: Bonds skin rapidly and strongly. Large quantities may cause burns.
Eyes: May bond eyelid. A large drop may cause a burn upon solidification. Lachrymator, double vision.
Inhalation:
Avoid prolonged inhalation. Vapors may cause irritation of nose and bronchial passages.
Ingestion:
The adhesive solidifies and adheres in the mouth, almost impossible to swallow. Lips may bond.

Other effects:
None known.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
First aid for eyes:
Flush with lukewarm water for 15 minutes. Call a physician immediately. Do not attempt to peel bonded eyelid from
eye!
First aid for skin:
Immerse in warm soapy water. Do not force apart.
First aid for inhalation:
Move to fresh air. If symptoms persist, call a physician.
First aid for ingestion:
Apply warm water to lips. Use maximum wetting with saliva. Position victim to prevent ingestion of solid. Call a
physician.

Special firefighting procedures:
Wear full protective equipment including self-contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual fire and explosion hazards:
Water may spread fire due to product floating on surface. Cloths used to wipe spills may polymerize and auto-ignite.
Hazardous products of combustion:
Oxides of carbon, oxides of nitrogen, trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide and unidentified organic combustion
products.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spill control:
Avoid personal contact. Evacuate area. Eliminate ignition sources. Ventilate area. Wear protective clothing and a
NIOSH approved respirator for organic vapors or a self-contained breathing apparatus if needed.
Containment:
Dike with inert absorbent.
Cleanup:
Flood area with water to cure and to control product vapors. Scrape up cured product and dispose of in accordance
with all applicable disposal regulations.

Special procedures:
Contact with cotton or wool may result in a strong exothermic reaction which can result in a fire.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling precautions:
Cyanoacrylates bond skin rapidly and strongly. May also bond eyelid to eyelid and/or skin. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment (see Section 8). Avoid dusting. Provide appropriate ventilation/respiratory protection
against decomposition products (see Section 10) during welding/flame cutting operations and to protect against
nuisance dust during sanding/grinding of cured product.
Storage:
Store away from heat and direct sunlight. Store in a dry location. Keep container tightly closed when not in use.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering controls
Ventilation :
General ventilation is adequate for occasional use. Where the adhesive is in continual use or is heated, or heating
cured adhesive over 400 F, provide local exhaust to keep vapors below the TLV.
Other engineering controls :
Have emergency shower and eye wash available.
Personal protective equipment
Eye and face protection:
Safety glasses with side shields or safety goggles.
Skin protection:
Polyethylene gloves and apron. Do not wear rubber or cloth gloves.
Respiratory protection:
Use NIOSH approved respirator for organic vapors or self-contained breathing apparatus if appropriate ventilation is
not available.
