SECTION 2: Hazards identification

OSHA Hazards EFFECTS OF SINGLE OVEREXPOSURE: SWALLOWING: Low acute oral toxicity. INHALATION: Not likely. SKIN CONTACT: May cause skin irritation and reddening. EYE CONTACT: Slightly irritating. May cause redness, irritation. CONTAINS A TRACE AMOUNT OF A PLATINUM COMPOUND WHICH MAY CAUSE SENSITIZATION. This product containes dimethylpolysiloxane which can generate small amounts of formaldehyde as a byproduct of oxidative thermal decomposition beginning at approximately 150ºC (300ºF). Exposure to formaldehyde can cause adverse effects such as skin and respiratory sensitization and eye and throat irritation. Formaldehyde is a potential cancer hazard. Use good industrial hygiene practices to evaluate and control exposure to formaldehyde when warranted by conditions of use. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: SWALLOWING: If large quantity has been swallowed, and if patient is fully conscious, give two glasses of water. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention. SKIN: Wash with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation develops or persists. INHALATION: If symptoms should develop. Remove to fresh air. Obtain Medical attention if symptoms persist. EYES: Immediately flush eyes with water and continue washing for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention if discomfort persists or visual changes occur. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: There is no specific antidote. Treatment of overexposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. Consideration should be give to the possibility that overexposure to material other than this product may have occurred. Treat symptomatically . No specific antidote available. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES FLASH POINT >93ºC (200ºF) Flammability Class: Will Burn Method used AFNOR T 60103 (EEC closed cup) FLAMMABLE LIMITS IN AIR (by volume): LOWER: No Data UPPER: No Data EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide.

HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Normal precautions common to safe manufacturing practice should be followed in handling and storage. Keep container closed, in a cool dry place S3/S7/S8 Avoid contact with skin and eyes S24/S25 In case of fire do not breathe fumes S41 Any proposed use of this product in elevated-temperature processes should be thoroughly evaluated to assure that safe operating conditions are established and maintained. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE VALUES AND SOURCE: Check exposure limit guidelines for formaldehyde, a byproduct of oxidative thermal decomposition of dimethylsiloxane, if this product is handled in extreme temperatures. RFSPIRATORY PROTECTION: Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator or self-contained breathing apparatus as needed to maintain personal exposure below established Occupational Exposure Values.. SKIN PROTECTION: Skin contact should be minimized through use of gloves and suitable long-sleeved clothing. Consideration must be given both to durability as well as permeation resistance. EYE PROTECTION: Eye and face protection requirements will vary dependent upon work environment conditions and material handling practices. Appropriate ANSI Z87 approved equipment should be selected for the particular use intended for this material. 0THER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Eye bath and safety shower. Do not store, use or consume foods etc. in areas where this material is stored or used. Wash hands and exposed skin immediately after handling to remove any accidental splashes. 9.

SKIN CONTACT: May cause skin irritation and reddening. EYE CONTACT: Slightly irritating. May cause redness, irritation. CONTAINS A TRACE AMOUNT OF A PLATINUM COMPOUND WHICH MAY CAUSE SENSITIZATION. This product containes dimethylpolysiloxane which can generate small amounts of formaldehyde as a byproduct of oxidative thermal decomposition beginning at approximately 150ºC (300ºF). Exposure to formaldehyde can cause adverse effects such as skin and respiratory sensitization and eye and throat irritation. Formaldehyde is a potential cancer hazard. Use good industrial hygiene practices to evaluate and control exposure to formaldehyde when warranted by conditions of use. EFFECTS OF REPEATED OVEREXPOSURE: No evidence of adverse effects from available information. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY OVEREXPOSURE: A knowledge of the available toxicology information and of the physical and chemical properties of the material suggests that overexposure is unlikely to aggravate existing medical conditions. SIGNIFICANT LABORATORY DATA WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMAN HEALTH HAZAPD EVALUATION: Contains crystalline silica, which is classified by IARC as an animal carcinogen and a probable human carcinogen. Crystalline silica as a respirable dust may cause silicosis. Since the silica in this product is compounded into polymer matrix, it is not expected to present the same hazard as neat silica. OTHER EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE None currently known.
