Section 2
Principle Routes of Exposure
Inhalation, skin contact, ingestion, eyes Exposure Effects Acute and Chronic: Inhalation Acute Nasal and respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache, possible unconsciousness, central nervous system depression. Skin contact Acute Extraction of natural oils with resulting dry skin, irritation, redness and dermatitis. Can pass through the skin into the blood. Eye contact Acute Irritation, redness, pain, blurred vision, sensation of seeing halos around lights and reversible damage. Ingestion Acute Gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea; kidney damage, blood system damage Chronic: Repeated overexposure to these products may cause central nervous system damage, kidney damage, liver abnormalities, lung damage, cardiac abnormalities, reproductive organ damage, skin sensitization and dermatitis. Inhalation, skin contact, ingestion, eyes Personal Protective Equipment: In cases where no monitoring for airborne contaminants has been carried out, assume maximum exposure and use antistatic paint suit, goggles, gloves, and air supplied respiratory equipment. All personal protective equipment should meet NIOSH or
Other Health Effects
Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Section 4 – First Aid Measures Emergency and First Aid Procedures: In all cases if symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Inhalation - move to fresh air, give artificial respiration if necessary. Skin contact - remove contaminated clothing, wash with soap and water or recognized skin cleaner. Do not use solvents or thinners. Eye contact - contact lenses must be removed, flush with water for at least 15 minutes, consult a physician immediately. Ingestion - drink one or two glasses of water to dilute. Do not induce vomiting. Consult a physician or poison control center immediately. Treat symptomatically Medical Conditions Prone to Aggravation: Pulmonary conditions, skin disorders, eye disorders, liver conditions, kidney conditions, neurological disorders, allergies, pregnancy, reproductive system disorders. Section 5 – Fire Fighting Measures Flash Point (SFCC): 82F (28C) Lower Explosive Limit: 1.1 Extinguishing Media: foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical or water fog or spray. Water jet or stream is unsuitable. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Invisible vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Since vapors are heavier than air, dangerous concentrations may not be apparent to casual observation. Keep containers tightly closed, isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous products of combustion. Symptoms may not be immediately apparent. Obtain medical attention. Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Water should be used to cool containers exposed to fire. Fire fighting personnel should wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Section 6 – Accidental Release Steps To Be Taken In Case Material Is Released Or Spilled: Remove all sources of ignition. Avoid breathing vapors, ventilate confined area. Remove with inert absorbent using non-sparking tools. If necessary report to applicable government agency. Section 7 – Handling and Storage
Precautionary statements
To Be Taken In Handling And Storing Minimize contact between the worker and this material. Do not transfer to unlabeled containers. No smoking. Store containers out of sun and away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Close all containers after each use. Consult NFPA and local codes for additional storage requirements. Hygienic Practices: Do not eat, drink or smoke in work areas. Wash hands before eating, smoking, or using the washroom. Launder clothing before reuse. Other Precautions: Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along floors. Use explosion proof equipment in areas where there is spraying or open containers. Do not take internally. Observe label precautions. Keep closures tight and container upright to prevent leakage. Avoid breathing sanding dust. The information contained in this safety data sheet does not constitute the user’s own assessment of workplace risks as required by regulations. Section 8 – Exposure Controls
Appearance/Odor
organic odor, liquid Freezing point, Coefficient of water/oil distribution ,pH: Not applicable or not available Section 10 – Stability and Reactivity Stability: Stable under non-emergency conditions. Materials to Avoid: Alkalis, acids, oxidizers, alkali metals, halogenated solvents, nitric acid, halogen compounds, water, sodium hydroxide. Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur. Conditions to Avoid: High temperatures, flame, sparks, high humidity, light, water, moisture Hazardous Decomposition Products: Oxides of carbon, toxic fumes, various hydrocarbons, aldehydes.
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Carcinogenicity (risk of cancer): Styrene is listed by IARC as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). The IARC 2B classification is not based on significant new evidence that styrene might be a carcinogen, but on a revised IARC classification scheme and new data on styrene oxide. Sensitization (effects of repeated exposure): These products may cause skin and inhalation sensitization to certain individuals. Teratogenicity (risk of malformation in an unborn fetus): None known Reproductive Toxicity (risk of sterility): None known Mutagenicity (risk of heritable genetic effects): Mutation data has been reported for styrene. Threshold Limit Value: None established for this product. For further information, see Section 2 - Hazardous Ingredients
ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
General Information: Avoid runoff into ground, storms or sewer that lead into waterways. Water runoff can cause environmental damage. The nature and packaging size of these products minimizes the potential for adverse ecological impact. Environmental Impact Data (percentage by weight): Ozone Depleters none Heavy Metals none See individual compositions, section 2. There are extensive ecological data available on the various components of these products. An adequate representation of all these data is beyond the scope of this document. Please contact the information phone number found in Section 1.
Disposal
Information Waste Disposal Method: Dispose of in accordance with federal, state or provincial and local pollution requirements. Clean-up preferably with a detergent, avoid the use of solvents. This information applies only to the material as manufactured; processing, use or contamination may make this information inappropriate, inaccurate or incomplete. The generator of the waste has the responsibility for proper waste classification, transportation and disposal.
