SECTION 2: Hazards identification

OSHA (a) Classification of the chemical in accordance with paragraph (d) of § 1910.1200; All classifications have been performed considering sawing, grinding, drilling, sanding or machining of the product has taken place and wood dust, sawdust, and small wood chips are present. Only “Softwoods” are used in the production of the product. So data derived from “Hardwoods” studies has not been considered. Acute Toxicity – N/A Skin Corrosion/Irritation – Irritant, category 2 Serious Eye Damage/Eye Irritation – Irritant, category 2B Respiratory or Skin Sensitization: Respiratory Sensitizer, category 1, sub-category 1B Skin Sensitizer, category 1, sub-category 1B Germ Cell Mutagenicity – N/A Carcinogenicity – Carcinogen, category 2 Reproductive Toxicity – N/A Specific Target Organ Toxicity Single Exposure – N/A Specific Target Organ Toxicity Repeated or Prolonged Exposure – N/A

Aspiration hazard

N/A Explosives – N/A Flammable Gases – N/A Flammable Aerosols – N/A Oxidizing Gases – N/A Gases Under Pressure – N/A Flammable Liquids – N/A Flammable Solids – Readily Combustible Solids, category 2 Self-Reactive Chemicals – N/A Pyrophoric Liquids – N/A Pyrophoric Solids – N/A Self-Heating Chemicals – N/A Chemicals Which, In Contact With Water, Emit Flammable Gases – N/A Oxidizing Liquids – N/A Oxidizing Solids – N/A Organic Peroxides – N/A Corrosive to Metals – N/A N/A = Not Applicable (b) Signal word, hazard statement(s), symbol(s) and precautionary statement(s) in accordance with paragraph (f) of § 1910.1200. (Hazard symbols may be provided as graphical reproductions in black and white or the name of the symbol, e.g., flame, skull and crossbones); __________________________________________________________________________________________ Skin Corrosion/Irritation – Skin Irritation hazard category 2 Warning Causes Skin Irritation

Disposal

Wash all body parts which If on skin: Wash with plenty of water and have come into contact with soap. any sawdust generated from sawing, grinding, drilling, If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice. sanding, or machining thoroughly after handling. Take off contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse. Wear protective gloves. Any type that creates a barrier is acceptable – Selection should be oriented to decrease contact with splinters and slivers of wood. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Serious Eye Damage/Eye Irritation – Eye Irritation hazard category 2B Warning Causes Eye Irritation Wash all body parts which If in eyes: Rinse cautiously with water for have come into contact with several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if any sawdust generated from present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. sawing, grinding, drilling, sanding, or machining If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice. thoroughly after handling. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Sensitization – Respiratory hazard category 1B Danger May Cause Allergy Or Asthma Symptoms Or Breathing Difficulties If Inhaled Avoid breathing dust. If inhaled: If breathing is difficult, remove Dispose of contents in person to fresh air and keep comfortable for accordance with all applicable In case of inadequate breathing. local, regional, national, or ventilation wear respiratory international rules and protection. If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a regulations. poison center. Adequate ventilation is considered that which keeps exposure limits at or below 15mg/m3 For a poison emergency in the U.S. call 1-800-222-1222 __________________________________________________________________________________________ Sensitization - Skin hazard category 1B Warning May Cause An Allergic Skin Reaction Avoid breathing dust. If on skin: Wash with plenty of water and Dispose of contents in soap. accordance with all applicable Contaminated work clothing local, regional, national, or must not be allowed out of the If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice. international rules and workplace regulations. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Wear protective gloves. Any type that creates a barrier is acceptable – Selection should be oriented to decrease contact with splinters and slivers of wood. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Carcinogenicity – Carcinogen hazard category 2 Warning Suspected Of Causing Cancer Of The Upper Respiratory System Obtain special instructions Store locked Dispose of contents in before use. If exposed or concerned: Get medical advice. up. accordance with all applicable local, regional, national, or Do not handle until all safety international rules and precautions have been read regulations. and understood. Wear protective gloves and eye protection. Acceptable gloves are any type that creates a barrier – Glove selection should be oriented to decrease contact with splinters and slivers of wood. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Flammable Solids – Readily Combustible Solids, category 2 Warning Flammable Solid Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames and hot surfaces. - In case of fire: Use water or wood appropriate No smoking. fire extinguishers to extinguish. Ground or Bond container and receiving equipment. Use explosion-proof electrical, ventilating, lighting, and processing equipment. Wear protective gloves and eye protection. Acceptable gloves are any type that creates a barrier – Glove selection should be oriented to decrease contact with splinters and slivers of wood. (c) Describe any hazards not otherwise classified that have been identified during the classification process; If small particles are generated during further processing, handling or by other means, may form combustible dust concentrations in air. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in the United States defines combustible dust as "a solid material composed of distinct particles or pieces, regardless of size, shape, or chemical composition, which presents a fire or deflagration hazard when suspended in air or some other oxidizing medium over a range of concentrations". Dust particles with an effective diameter of less than 420 microns (those passing through a U.S. No. 40 standard sieves) should be deemed to meet the criterion of the definition. (d) Where an ingredient with unknown acute toxicity is used in a mixture at a concentration ≥1% and the mixture is not classified based on testing of the mixture as a whole, a statement that X% of the mixture consists of ingredient(s) of unknown acute toxicity is required.
