SECTION 2: Hazards identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: • Pellets with slight or no odor • Spilled material may create slipping hazard • Can burn in a fire creating dense, toxic smoke • Molten plastic can cause severe thermal burns • Fumes produced during melt processing may cause eye, skin, and respiratory tract irritation. Severe over-exposure may result in nausea, headache, chills, and fever. See below for additional effects. • Secondary operations, such as grinding, sanding, or sawing can produce dust which may present an explosion or respiratory hazard.

HMIS® ratings

Health 0 Flammability 1 Reactivity 0 Skin Contact: Eye Contact Not a hazard with pellets during normal industrial use. Resin particles, like other inert materials, are mechanically irritating to eyes. Inhalation Pellet inhalation unlikely due to physical form. Processing fumes evolved at recommended processing conditions may contain trace amounts of tetrahydrofuran (typically less than 1 ppm). NTP has listed tetrahydrofuran as a carcinogen. Extreme processing conditions or temperatures may result in higher levels. See section 8 for appropriate exposure controls and personal protection. Ingestion Pellet ingestion unlikely due to physical form. Sensitization No information available on this product
