Hazard pictograms

There is no pictogram for a combustible dust hazard Rough edges of INTEPRO® boards could result in minor cuts to hands. Appropriate gloves should be worn to prevent cuts and/or scraps. Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents. When working with the INTEPRO® boards at hot temperatures, the material may begin to decompose producing fumes that can contain carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and other unidentified organic compounds that come from the breakdown of the materials used to make the boards. Adequate ventilation should be provided to minimize exposures to fumes. When cutting, shaping or modifying INTEPRO® boards, other hazards may exist.

Potential health effects

Eyes: Dust from cutting may result and mechanically irritate the eyes; if using elevated temperatures, vapors may irritate eyes. Skin: Cuts or scraps referenced above; if using elevated temperatures to soften the INTEPRO® boards, exposure to molten resin may cause thermal burns. Ingestion: Dust or debris from cutting may irritate the throat, mouth and stomach. Inhalation: Inhalation of fine dust, from cutting or sanding, may cause irritation of the respiratory system; inhalation of vapors from use of elevated temperatures may also cause irritation of the respiratory system.
