UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Pressure may build up in tightly closed

containers exposed to fire which may result in rupture. Keep containers cooled

with water spray.

======================== SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA ==========================

STABILITY: Stable

CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Excessive heat, freezing temperatures, corrosive

atmospheres or liquids which may damage containers.

INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): No hazardous reactions are expected to

occur under normal industrial conditions.

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BYPRODUCTS: Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and

other toxic gases including traces of styrene and/or acrylamide monomer.

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.

==================== SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA =======================

INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Effects vary among individuals

and may include nausea and irritation of the nose, throat, and respiratory

tract.

SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Eye contact may

cause irritation, redness, and tearing. This material is not expected to be a

skin irritant, however, if allowed to remain on the skin a thin film may form

which may result in irritation depending on the method of removal.

INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: While this material has a very

low degree of toxicity, ingestion of large amounts can cause gastrointestinal

irritation, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea.

HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC): Breathing high concentrations of aerosols or

mists of this material may cause nausea and irritation of the nose, throat, and

respiratory tract. NOTE: this product contains trace amounts of residual butyl

acrylate (CAS 141-32-2, TLV = 10 ppm ACGIH, OSHA) and styrene monomer (CAS 100-

42-5, TLV = 50 ppm ACGIH) which may be released during processing and storage.

At these trace levels, they should present no hazard with normal use.

CARCINOGENICITY: NTP: Yes IARC MONOGRAPHS: Yes OSHA REGULATED: No

CHRONIC EFFECTS OF CARBON BLACK OVEREXPOSURE

The carbon black component of this formula is an IARC listed Group 2B substance,

considered by IARC to be a "Possible human carcinogen". Carbon black is not

designated as a carcinogen by the U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) or the

U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The American

Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) classifies carbon black

as A4, "Not classifiable as a human carcinogen". Carbon black is not presently

listed by California Proposition 65, but the California Office of Environmental

Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) published on October 29, 1999 a Notice of

Intent to List "Carbon Black (airborne particles of respirable size)" as a

"substance known to the State to cause cancer".

CHRONIC EFFECTS OF CRYSTALLINE SILICA AS QUARTZ

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated crystalline

silica, inhaled as quartz, and classified it as a confirmed human carcinogen.

The National Toxicology Program (NTP) classifies quartz as "reasonably

anticipated to be a human carcinogen".

MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Respiratory symptoms

associated with pre-existing lung disorders may be aggravated by exposure to

this material.

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: INHALATION OVEREXPOSURE: Remove person to

fresh air, If breathing stops, apply artificial respiration and seek immediate

medical attention. NOTE: Use supplied-air respirator for rescue in enclosed

areas. EYE CONTACT: Flush with large amounts of tepid water for at least 15

minutes, get medical attention. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting, if aspirated

material can cause chemical pneumonitis or pulmonary edema. Drink 2 glasses of

milk or water to dilute and contact physician or poison center. SKIN: Wash with

soap and water, avoid repeated contact.

=========== SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE ============

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Dike to prevent entry

into sewers or surface waters. Recover free liquid by shoveling into container,

or add absorbent such as sand or earth to spill and sweep up. Provide

ventilation, wear a respirator. Notify proper authorities if spill contaminates

land or waterways.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Dispose of in chemical landfill or incinerate assuring

conformity to all applicable local, state, and federal governing regulations.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Do not expose to direct sun or

freezing temperatures, store inside away from extreme temperature variations.

Protect containers from physical damage. Keep containers tightly closed when

not in use. Do not inhale aerosols or mists, use with adequate ventilation and

wear a respirator. Do not store with food or animal feed.

OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Do not cut, weld, grind, drill, solder, or braze on or near

containers whether full or empty. Do not reuse containers without professional

reconditioning and testing. Do not remove warning labels from containers.

===================== SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES ======================

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Spraying this product in poorly ventilated areas may

require the use of a respirator. Use Mine Safety Appliance respirator #448849

with mist filter (or equivalent) if air monitoring demonstrates that the

concentration of listed hazardous materials carried by aerosols exceeds

recommended TLV's.

VENTILATION: Use good general mechanical ventilation and local exhaust adequate

to reduce the concentration of aerosols or mists carrying listed hazardous

materials to below the Threshold Limit Value(s).

PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Use of gloves is recommended, use chemically resistant type.

EYE PROTECTION: Use is recommended, use splash goggles or full face shields as

necessary.

OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Use impervious apron or coveralls to prevent

contaminating street clothes which may result in prolonged exposure. The use of

head caps or helmets is recommended.

WORK AND HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Eye washes and safety showers in the workplace are

recommended. Practice good industrial hygiene when using this product: After

using this product, do not smoke or eat until washing thoroughly. Remove

saturated clothing or shoes at once and launder before reuse.
