V. HEALTH HAZARD AND PROTECTION DATA (As packaged and completely cured form)
A.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: 1. Inhalation: No toxic effects expected. 2. Eye Contact: Mild temporary irritation to the eyes. 3. Skin Contact: No toxic effects expected. 4. Ingestion: No toxic effects expected. 5. Acute Effects of Exposure: None known 6. Chronic Effects of Exposure: None known B.
First Aid for Exposure: 1. Eye contact: Immediately flush with water for at least 15 minutes
while holding eyelids open and lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get
medical attention if irritation occurs. 2. Skin contact: Not considered a potential hazard. If irritation
occurs, wash thoroughly with soap and water and get medical attention. 3.
Ingestion: Get medical
attention. 4. Inhalation: Not considered a potential hazard. |

VI. HEALTH HAZARD AND PROTECTION DATA (By-product: Acetic Acid) This
material releases acetic acid until moisture curing is complete. A.
Personal Protection Recommended: Wear
impervious gloves and protective clothing as required to prevent skin contact. Wear
protective goggles to prevent eye contact. An
eyewash and safety shower should be nearby and ready for use. B.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: 1. Inhalation: Moderately
toxic. Severe mucous membrane irritant. 2. Eye Contact: Severe eye irritant. 3. Skin Contact: Severe skin irritant 4. Ingestion: Moderately toxic. 5. Chronic Effects of Exposure: May cause bronchitis and pharyngeal
edema. Acetic acid may cause burns upon prolonged or repeated contact. Skin
sensitization may occur. C.
First Aid for Exposure: 1. Eye contact: Immediately flush with water for at least 15 minutes
while holding eyelids open and lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get
immediate medical attention. 2. Skin contact: Immediately remove excess material from the skin
with a waterless skin cleaner. Wash skin with plenty of soap and water. Get
medical attention if irritation persists after washing. Remove contaminated
clothing and shoes and wash before reuse. 3. Ingestion: Not applicable. Dilute acetic acid is approved
for food use. 4. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give artificial
respiration if not breathing. Get immediate medical attention. 5. Carcinogenicity: This material is not considered to be a
carcinogen by the National Toxicology Program, the International Agency for
Research on Cancer, or the Federal Occupational Safety and Health
Administration.
D. Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: No data is available. |
|
VII. SPILL AND LEAK PROCEDURES Evacuate
the hazard area of unprotected personnel. Use personal protection to prevent
personal exposure. Provide adequate ventilation. As required dike with soil or other similar absorbent materials to prevent spread of spill. Mop or wipe up and place in appropriate containers and/or place absorbent material on spill and transfer absorbed fluid to appropriate containers. |
|
VIII. REACTIVITY DATA
A.
Stability: This material is chemically stable. Hazardous
polymerization will not occur. B.
Materials to Avoid: Avoid contact with alcohol or other moisture
containing solvents. Avoid lazy smoldering type flames. C. Hazardous Decomposition Products: Burning may liberate carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of silicon, formaldehyde and unidentified organic compounds. |
|
IX. OTHER PRECAUTIONS This
material reacts with atmospheric moisture to form a cured elastic bond,
releasing acetic acid until the curing process is complete. Store in a cool, dry
place. Keep container closed to prevent exposure to moisture. Empty containers
can contain product residue. All hazard warnings apply to empty containers. Consult and comply with federal, state, and local regulations concerning any release of hazardous materials into the water, water piping systems, ground, or air. Consult and comply with federal, state, and local regulations concerning removal of waste.
