THERMOSET SC-303 B

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW ***: Gray Liquid, with Slight odor. May cause eye irritation. EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - EYE CONTACT: Eye contact may cause slight irritation. EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - SKIN CONTACT: No skin hazard expected in normal industrial use. EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INHALATION: No inhalation hazard expected during normal workplace use. EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INGESTION: Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion is not an expected route of entry in industrial or commercial uses. EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - CHRONIC HAZARDS: IARC has designated titanium dioxide (TiO2) as Group 2B – possibly carcinogenic to humans in dust form. However, a number of long term animal studies and human epidemiology studies evaluating TiO2 and workplace exposure show insufficient evidence for carcinogenic affects. EPA, NTP and OSHA do not designate TiO2 as a carcinogen and ACGIH designates TiO2 as A4 - not classifiable as a human carcinogen. TiO2 is not present in this product as a dust and no airborne exposure is expected during application. This product contains methylpolysiloxanes which can generate formaldehyde at approximately 300 degrees F (150 C) and above, in atmospheres which contain oxygen. Formaldehyde is a skin and respiratory sensitizer, eye and throat irritant, acute toxicant, and known cancer hazard. Workplace exposure to formaldehyde is regulated by OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.1048.
