ARMOR COAT RP FLAT BLACK 6 X 946ML

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Emergency Overview Black. Liquid. May cause moderate irritation to the respiratory system. May cause nausea, headaches, and dizziness. May cause drowsiness, weakness, and fatigue. Move to fresh air. If required, artificial respiration or administration of oxygen can be performed by trained personnel. Leave area to breathe fresh air. Avoid further overexposure. If symptoms persist, get medical attention. Acute Potential Health Effects/ Routes of Entry Inhalation May cause moderate irritation to the respiratory system. May cause nausea, headaches, and dizziness. May cause drowsiness, weakness, and fatigue. Eyes Vapor and/or mist may cause eye irritation. Direct contact may cause temporary redness and discomfort. Ingestion May cause irritation to the mouth, throat and stomach. May cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, and vomiting. Skin May cause moderate irritation.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Pre-existing eye, skin, liver, kidney, and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by exposure.

Potential chronic health

Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may be harmful or fatal. Prolonged or repeated exposure to xylene may cause defatting, drying, and irritation of the skin, dermatitis, central nervous system (CNS) effects, heart muscle sensitization and arrhythmia, hearing loss, and brain, liver, kidney damage. Xylene overexposure may affect fetal development. Carbon black is classified by IARC to be a known animal carcinogen and a possible human carcinogen (Group 2B). Carbon black is encapsulated by resin and not expected to have adverse effects unless made airborne. IARC has determined that there is inadequate evidence for the carcinogencity of cobalt 2-ethylhexanoate. However, IARC has determined that cobalt and cobalt compounds are possible human carcinogens. Inhalation of crystalline silica (quartz) can cause cancer based on animal data, and IARC concludes sufficient evidence in humans (Group 1). Prolonged and repeated overexposure to free crystalline silica dust above the TLV level may cause scarring of the lungs with cough and shortness of breath. A delayed lung injury, silicosis may result from breathing free silica. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated ethylbenzene and classified it as a possible human carcinogen (Group 2B) based on sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity in experimental animals, but inadequate evidence for cancer in exposed humans. Prolonged and repeated exposure to excessive airborne concentrations of talc can result in scarring of the lungs (pneumoconiosis) or the covering of the lungs (pleural thickening). Overexposure to sublimed zinc oxide may produce symptoms known as "zinc oxide chills" which have no recognized complications. Symptoms usually disappear within 24 hours. Fillers are encapsulated and not expected to be released from product under normal conditions of use. Prolonged or repeated exposure to mineral spirits (petroleum naphtha or stoddard solvent) may cause defatting, drying, and irritation of the skin, dermatitis, central nervous system (CNS) effects, and adverse liver, kidney, and lung effects. Target Organs: Skin.
