Precautionary statements

Not aoolicable I Not aoolicable EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: EMERGENCY Contact with the molten material may cause thermal burns. If molten material contacts skin, cool area OVERVIEW: Immediately in water. DO NOT attempt to remove material from the skin. Seek medical attention. May emit hazardous vapours/fumes if overheated during installation. Vapours may cause eye or lung irritation. These products also may emit hazardous thermal decomposition and combustion by-products If they are charred or burned. Avoid breathing thermal degradation and combustionby-producst . Note: For more Information on thermal decomposition and combustion by-products, refer to Section 10.

Potential health effects

EYES: Contact with molten material may cause thermal burns. Overheating the product to charring or burning will produce fumes that may causetearing (lachrymation) or eye Irritation. SKIN: Contact with the molten material may cause thermal burns. If molten material contacts skin, cool area immediately In water. DO NOT attempt to remove material from the skin. INGESTION: Not a llkely route of exposure. There is Insufficient Information available to predict the effects of swallowing this material. INHALATION: Possible discomforUltching of the mucous membranesIn the mouth, nose or throat if product is shredded without adequate ventilation. Thermal decomposition products (such as in a fire situation) may cause severe Irritation of the respiratory tract, coughing, headache, dizziness and nausea. Inhaling thermal decomposition products of some polymers may cause flu-like symptoms. For more Information on thermal decomposition products, refer to Section 10.

Acute Health Hazards

Possible dlscomforUitchlng.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Persons with skin, eye, or respiratory conditions (such as asthma) may experience more severe or long-lasting symptoms.
