Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
OSHA GHS Remark The additives in this product (if any) are bound in a thermoplastic resin matrix. In accordance with GHS for the
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
the hazard potential may be assessed with respect to the physico-chemical form and/or bioavailability of the individual components in the thermoplastic resin. UN GHS says, that even if adverse effects are seen in animal studies or in-vitro tests, no classification is needed if the mechanism or mode of action is not relevant to humans. The European CLP Regulation also mentions, that no classification is indicated if the mechanism is not relevant to humans. Where GHS classifications are shown below, these are based on the individual components in the thermoplastic resin matrix. Under the typical use conditions for the resin, these hazardous components are unlikely to contribute to workplace exposure. Please read the entire safety data sheet and/or consult an EHS professional for a complete understanding. Not a hazardous substance or mixture.

Other hazards which do not result in classification
SABIC Emergency Overview Powder with slight or no odor WARNING! FORMS COMBUSTIBLE DUST CONCENTRATIONS IN AIR (DURING HANDLING AND PROCESSING) Due to the propensity for hazardous dust explosions and electrostatic discharge hazard, review sections 5, 7 and 8 data with process safety expert before handling or processing. 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. Powder can cause mechanical irritation if dusts are generated.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
MEDICAL RESTRICTIONS: There are no known health effects aggravated by exposure to this product. However, certain sensitive individuals and individuals with respiratory impairments may be affected by exposure to components in the processing vapors.
