Precautionary statements

• Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read, and Safety Measures: understood and precautionary measures are taken. • Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. • Wear protective gloves, eye-protection if necessary, Take burn prevention measures especially when handling melted resin. • Install effective local exhaust in extrusion press because gas is generated. Emergency Overview: Negligible hazard at room temperature under normal use. Primary Route(s) of Eye contact, inhalation, ingestion, dermal contact. Exposue: Potential Health Effects and Symptoms of Over-Exposure: Eye Contact: Solid particles or dust may cause transient irritation as a result of mechanical abrasion. Process vapors or fumes may cause irritation. Skin Contact: Pellets are not likely to cause irritation. Heated material may cause thermal burns. Inhalation: Exposure to dust during material handling may cause irritation to the respiratory tract. Process vapors or fumes may cause irritation. Ingestion: May cause choking if swallowed.

All ingredients are listed on TSCA inventory. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES Eye Contact: Immediately wash eyes with water. Consult physician if irritation or other symptoms occur. Skin Contact: For serious burns, get medical attention. In case of skin contact with hot polymer, immediately immerse in or flush with clean, cold water. Do not attempt to remove polymer from skin. Inhalation: Leave exposure area and seek fresh air. Consult physician if irritation to respiratory passages occurs. Ingestion: Consult physician. 5. FIRE HAZARD DATA AND FIGHTING METHOD Flash Point: Not Applicable Auto Ignition: Not Established Flammable Limits: Not Applicable In Air LEL 0.00% UEL 0.00% Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water spray Special Fire Fighting Procedure: In the event of a fire, wear NIOSH approved, positive pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective clothing. Unusual Fire and Explosion Avoid accumulation and dispersion of dust to reduce explosion potential. Fire may produce irritating gases and dense smoke. This compound is not known to possess unusual fire and explosion hazards. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE CONTROL MEASURES Response to Spills: Product is a water pollutant and should be prevented from contaminating soil or from entering sewage and drainage systems. To prevent the danger of slips or falls, sweep or gather up product and place in proper container for disposal or recovery. Exposure Guidelines: This is a polymeric compound. All ingredients are encapsulated by the polymer and present no likelihood of exposure under normal conditions of processing and handling. Components OSHA-PEL ACGIH-TLV Polypropylene Nuisance dust: 10mg/M3 TWA not determine 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Maintain good housekeeping. Spilled materials may create a slipping hazard. Remove dust from settling areas to prevent any secondary potential dust explosion or fire hazards. Electrostatic charge may build up during handling. Grounding of equipment is recommended.

Storage

Store in a dry place and away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Container Use: Keep containers closed. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION RECOMMENDATIONS Eye Protection: Safety glasses with side shields. Use dust goggles if dust conditions exist. Skin Protection: Hot material: Wear heat-resistant protective gloves, clothing and face shield that are able to withstand the temperature of the molten product. Cold material: None required; however, use of protective clothing is good industrial practice. Respiratory Protection: None required during normal use of the product. NIOSH approved dust mask recommended if dusty conditions exist. Engineering Control: Ventilation Requirements: General ventilation should be sufficient. However, if operating conditions create high airborne concentrations of this material, special ventilation may be needed. If thermal processing results in irritating vapors, special ventilation may be needed. If handling results in dust generation, special ventilation may be needed to ensure that dust exposure does not exceed
