Isoset WD3-A322 ADHESIVE

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Emergency Overview Appearance: liquid NOTICE: WHILE THIS MATERIAL HAS A LOW LEVEL OF TOXICITY, GOOD INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE PRACTICES ARE ENCOURAGED TO MINIMIZE EXPOSURE.

Principle Routes of Exposure

Inhalation, Skin absorption, Skin contact, Eye Contact, Ingestion Eye contact May cause mild eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing, and redness. Skin contact Unlikely to cause skin irritation or injury. Ingestion Swallowing small amounts of this material during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects. Swallowing large amounts may be harmful. Inhalation Breathing of vapor or mist is possible. Breathing small amounts of this material during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects. Breathing large amounts may be harmful. Symptoms are not expected at air concentrations below the recommended exposure limits, if applicable (see Section 8.).

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Preexisting disorders of the following organs (or organ systems) may be aggravated by exposure to this material:, Skin, lung (for example, asthma-like conditions) Symptoms Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through breathing, swallowing, and/or passage of the material through the skin may include:, stomach or intestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), irritation (nose, throat, airways) Target Organs No data Carcinogenicity The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the National Toxicology Program (NTP) have determined that there is sufficient evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of inhaled crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite. In addition, IARC has determined that there is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of quartz and cristobalite in experimental animals. Among individuals with silicosis, lung cancer occurs more frequently in those who smoke. Reproductive hazard There are no data available for assessing risk to the fetus from maternal exposure to this material.

Further information

Breathing spray from emulsions may cause deposition in the lung. Respirators should be provided if engineering controls are not adequate. Residual monomer content under conditions of normal handling present no problem; however, high levels of monomer vapors can be released into workroom air when emulsions are heat cured or dried (rollers, ovens, infrared lamp, etc.). There is some evidence that breathing respirable crystalline silica or the disease silicosis is associated with an increased incidence of immunological disorders and autoimmune diseases such as scleroderma (a disorder manifested by fibrosis of the lungs, skin and other internal organs), systemic lupus erythematosis and sarcoidosis (chronic inflammatory diseases).
