WDS DYNAGRIP 3498 Sub-Floor Adhesive Tan

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

OSHA Emergency Overview: A tan paste product with a strong solvent odor. DANGER! Extremely flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors may cause flash fire or explosion. Vapors may ignite explosively. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not breathe vapors. Use only with adequate ventilation. Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all windows and doors to achieve cross-ventilation. May cause eye, skin, nose, throat and respiratory tract irritation. Refer to other MSDS sections for other detailed information. Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: Causes eye irritation. Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: Causes skin irritation. Prolonged and repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis, drying and defatting due to the solvent properties. Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Vapor harmful. May affect the brain or nervous system causing dizziness, headache or nausea. Inhalation causes irritation to the respiratory tract (nose, mouth, throat, mucous membranes). May be fatal if inhaled. Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Harmful or fatal if swallowed. If ingested, may cause vomiting, diarrhea, and depressed respiration. Aspiration of material into the lungs due to vomiting can cause chemical pneumonitis, which can be fatal. Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards NOTICE Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Symptoms include: loss of memory, loss of intellectual ability and loss of coordination. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Prolonged or repeated contact with skin can cause defatting of the skin, which may lead to dermatitis. Overexposure or misuse of toluene can cause liver, kidney, and brain damage as well as cardiac abnormalities. There have been cases of aplastic anemia from toluene in industrial exposures (ACGIH, 1992). Increased coagulation time and reduced clotting factors have also been found, which are indicators of damage to the bone marrow (Clayton & Clayton, 1994). Symptoms include: loss of memory, loss of intellectual ability and loss of coordination.
