HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW HMIS: Physical state: Physical state: Paste HEALTH: 2 Color: Blue FLAMMABILITY: 4 Odor: Mild petroleum PHYSICAL HAZARD: 0 Personal Protection: See Section 8 DANGER: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE. CAUSES EYE, SKIN AND RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION Relevant routes of exposure: Skin, inhalation, eyes, Ingestion Potential Health Effects Inhalation: Vapors and mist irritate the respiratory tract and nasal passages. When heated to temperatures exceeding 300° F (150° C) in the presence of air, silicones may form formaldehyde vapors. Formaldehyde is a potential cancer hazard and a known skin and respiratory sensitizer. Vapors irritate the eyes, nose and throat. Safe handling conditions may be maintained by keeping formaldehyde vapor concentrations below the OSHA permissible limt. The silane is a skin and eye irritant and may cause skin burns. Overexposure may cause coma and respiratory failure. The low concentration makes such overexposure unlikely and minimizes its affect on health and safety. Skin contact: May cause skin irritation with discomfort or rash. Eye contact: Vapors may irritate eyes. Contact with eyes will cause irritation. Ingestion: Moderately toxic by ingestion. Not expected under normal conditions of use. Existing conditions aggravated by Skin disorders. exposure: See Section 11 for additional toxicological information.
