SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Emergency Overview This material is a white, granular, odorless polymer that yields a gel-like material with the addition of water. It is insoluble in water and causes extremely slippery conditions when wet. Recent scientific information has determined that respirable Stockosorb particles are defined as inert or nuisance dust by OSHA, under 29 CFR 1900.1000, Table Z-3. Although Stockosorb is not regulated as a hazardous material, any dust may be a potential respiratory tract irritant. Use an approved respirator if necessary when conditions merit.
Potential health effects
Eyes Dust may cause burning, drying, itching and other discomfort, resulting in reddening of the eyes. Skin Exposure to the dust, such as in manufacturing, may aggravate existing skin conditions due to drying effect. Ingestion As in any instance of non-food consumption, seek medical attention in the event of any adverse symptoms. Inhalation The manufacturer recommends a maximum 8-hour exposure limit of 5mg/m3. Nuisance dusts of this product may cause irritation of the nose, throat, and respiratory tract.
