Remarks
The components of this product are embedded in an impervious polymer matrix and are therefore not biologically available.Any hazardous constituents are fixed in the polymer matrix and therefore present a negligible exposure risk under normal conditions of processing and handling.Additives contained in this product do not pose a risk to health unless they are liberated during processing (fumes from melting, dusts).Suitable Industrial Hygiene precautions should be implemented to prevent (respirable) dust and fume exposures.Exposure to (melting) fumes should be kept as low as possible, using suitable ventilation equipment.Dusts and fumes created from secondary processing may be irritating to respiratory tract and skin and should be considered as potentially hazardous.If user operations generate dust, fumes or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit. Section 3. Hazards identification Physical state Solid. [Granules] Emergency overview NOT EXPECTED TO PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS WHEN THE RECOMMENDED INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE ARE FOLLOWED. No known significant effects or critical hazards. Avoid prolonged contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
