Incompatibility: This product can react with strong acids.
Section VI - Health Hazard Data, Toxicity Data
This product contains crystalline silica. Prolonged exposure to dust may cause silicosis, a progressive pneumoconiosis, or other
respiratory diseases. International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified crystalline silica as Group 1. The agency
states there is sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in humans. Reference: IARC Monograph 68. Dust from product at any stage of its
use or during tear-out after service may, especially on long term exposure, lead to lung disease unless respiratory protection is
employed. NIOSH approved respirators should be worn any time that refractories are torn out after service. While a respiratory
hazard and/or nuisance dust may exist from the product itself, other foreign substances may warrant additional precautions during
tear-out and disposal.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Eyes: Acute: May cause irritation. Chronic: None known. Skin: Acute: May cause skin irritation
Chronic: None known. Inhalation: Acute: May cause upper respiratory irritation Chronic: Prolonged irritation of mineral wool dust may
reduce lung function. Ingestion: Acute: CONSULT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
EMERGENCY FIRST AID PROCEDURES: Eyes: Immediately rinse eyes with plenty of water until irritation stops. Skin: Wash frequently
with soap and water to minimize irritation. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Remove fibers and dust from nose and drink water to clear
throat. Ingestion: Consult a physician immediately.
Note: Should any of the above conditions persist, consult a physician.
Section VII: Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
SPILLS: Avoid creating dust, use a vacuum or wet cleanup to minimize dust.
WASTE DISPOSAL: Mineral wool fiber products are generally classified as a nonhazardous waste and may be
disposed of in a noncritical landfill. Always check local, state and federal regulations.
Disposal Considerations: As supplied, product may be disposed of in an approved landfill, in accordance with
federal, state and local regulations. Supplier can make no statement concerning disposal of used product, since
product may become contaminated by hazardous materials during use.
HANDLING AND STORING: Store in dry area. Product is nonflammable.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Do not get in eyes. Avoid skin contact. Prevent prolonged or repeated breathing of
airborne particles. Do not handle until the manufacturer鈥檚 safety precautions and label instructions have been read
and understood.
Section VIII: Control Measures
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Wear NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators.
VENTILATION: Use sufficient ventilation (natural or mechanical) while handling this material in a dry state, to
maintain airborne dust levels below TLV.
EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses or goggles should be worn when materials are being handled.
GENERAL INFORMATION: Use waterproof or rubber gloves to protect hands. Clothing should be long sleeved,
loose fitting and a cap should be worn. Wash all work clothing separate from other clothing to prevent possible
migration of mineral wool fiber and dust to other clothes.
Section IX: Ecological, Regulatory and Other Information
ECOLOGICAL: Ecotoxilogical/chemical fate information: Not available.
REGULATORY: TSCA Status: All components listed. Canadian DSL: All components listed. SARA Title III, Sec-
tion 313: This MSDS provides toxic chemical 鈥淪UPPLIER INFORMATION鈥? required under Section 313 of the
Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1986 and 40 CFR 372. Toxic chemical information, if
applicable to the product(s) named, is the location in Section II - HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS section of the
