Highly Flammable liquid and vapour

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 [CLP This SDS covers products sold in a paste-like form. These products are shipped in small containers or syringes. These products contain flammable solvents and should be stored in sealed containers when not in use and kept away from ignition sources and hot surfaces. Flammable solvent vapors, metal fumes and dust are generated during melting and brazing operations. Hazardous levels of dust or metal fumes of product constituents can create health risks, as described below. Metallic dust and particles can cause a serious fire and/or explosion hazard.

Hazard statements

H225 Highly flammable liquid and vapor. H319 Causes eye irritation. H315 Causes skin irritation. Note: Accompanying alpha-numeric designations included to address EU regulations.

Precautionary statements

P210 Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. – No smoking. P260B Do not breathe solvent vapors, dust or fumes. P270 P280A + P264 Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wear protective gloves to prevent skin contact or thermal burns during brazing operations. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. P280B Wear ANSI-approved eye protection to prevent eye contact. P302 + P352 + If on skin: Wash with plenty of water. P333 + P313 If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention. P305 + P351 + P338 + If in eyes: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove P337 + P313 contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical attention. P308 + P309 + P313 If exposed, concerned, or feel unwell: Get medical advice/attention. Other information about health hazards: Dust and fumes generated during brazing operations can cause minor irritation of skin and eyes. Repeated or prolonged exposure to elevated concentrations of any airborne dust or fume can irritate or harm the respiratory system, especially as an aggravation to a pre-existing condition. Inhalation of significant quantities of very fine metal dust and metal fumes can cause “metal fume fever,” with flu-like symptoms. Avoid creating and breathing airborne dust and fumes. Other information about physical hazards: Brazing and soldering operations present a fire hazard to nearby combustible materials. Finely dispersed metal particles can form ignitable and explosive mixtures in air. Maintain good housekeeping.

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

Under the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling and the US OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, dust and fumes released during brazing operations are categorized as hazardous: (incl. Classification according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 [CLP]) Highly flammable liquid, Category 2 H225 Flashpoint <23°C/73.4°F and initial boiling point >35°C/95°F; due to the presence of ethanol and/or isopropyl alcohol Eye irritant, Category 2B H319 Due to the presence of ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, indium (in Incusil-25), and gallium (in Gapasil-9) Skin irritant, Category 2 H315 Due to the presence of gallium in Gapasil-9
