INHALATION If overcome by exposure, remove victim to fresh air immediately. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as needed. Obtain emergency medical attention immediately.

ADVISE TO PHYSICIANS Treat symptomatically and supportively.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES FLASH POINT METHOD

GT 215 F/102 C for volatile components

FLAMMABLE LIMITS (% VOLUME IN AIR) AUTOIGNITION TEMP. METHOD = N/AP LOWER: N/AP UPPER: N/AP FIRE AND EXPLOSIVE HAZARDS

Fire or excessive heat may result in rupture of container due to bulk polymerization. Heating may cause explosion.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Dry Chemical, CO2, Foam, Water spray/water fog for cooling. USE WATER WITH CAUTION. Water may be ineffective in fighting the fire.

FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS Wear self contained breathing apparatus (pressure-demand MSHA/NIOSH) approved or equivalent and protective clothing. See Section 10 – decomposition products possible. Fight fire from safe distance/protected location. Water may be ineffective in firefighting due to low solubility. Use water spray/fog for cooling. Pressure relief system may plug with solids, increasing risk of overpressure. Notify authorities if liquid enters sewer/public waters.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Spilled or released material may polymerize and release heat/gases. Eliminate all ignition sources and ventilate area. Wear protective equipment during clean up. Dike and recover large spill. Soak up small spill with inert solids (such as vermiculite, clay) and sweep/shovel into vented disposal container. Wash spill area with a strong detergent and water solution; rinse with water but minimize water use during clean up. Prevent runoff from entering drains, sewers, or streams. Dispose/report per regulatory requirements.

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET – RESIN 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Unless inhibited, product can polymerize, raising temperature and pressure, possibly rupturing container. Check inhibitor content often, adding to bulk liquid if needed. Do not blanket or mix with oxygen-free gas as it renders inhibitor ineffective. Do not store at below 32F – inhibitor can separate as a solid. If frozen,

warm and remix material gently (<90F). Prevent moisture contact. Store in tightly closed, properly vented containers away from: heat, sparks, open flame, strong oxidizers, radiation and other initiators. Prevent contamination by foreign materials. Use only non-sparking tools and limit storage time.

DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURES

Follow standard plant procedures or supervisor’s instructions for decontamination operations.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION EYE PROTECTION

Eye protection such as chemical splash goggles and/or face shield must be worn when possibility exists for eye contact due to splashing or spraying liquid, airborne particles or vapor. Contact lenses should not be worn.

SKIN PROTECTION When skin contact is possible, protective clothing including apron, sleeves, boots head and face protection should be worn. Wear chemical resistant gloves such as neoprene, rubber, latex, etc.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTIONS Where exposure through inhalation may occur from use, NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection equipment is recommended. If cured material is cut or sanded a NIOSH/MSHA particulate respirator is recommended.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS Local exhaust ventilation may be required in addition to general room ventilation.

OTHER HYGIENIC PRACTICES Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure.

OTHER WORK PRACTICES Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities. Promptly remove soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse. Shower after work using plenty of soap and water.

Materials to avoid: • Reacts violently with : Strong acids Strong bases Sulphur compounds Reducing agents Oxidizing agents Heavy metals Amines Rust Conditions / hazards to avoid: See HANDLING AND STORAGE section of this MSDS for specified conditions. SADT - Self Accelerating Decomposition Temperature. Lowest temperature at which the tested package size will undergo a self-accelerating decomposition reaction. This reaction will generate flammable vapors which may autoignite. The length of time to generate a decomposition reaction, after the SADT has been reached or exceeded, is dependent upon how much the SADT has been exceeded and the length of time needed for the reaction exotherm (heat spike from increasing decomposition rate) to initiate a rapid decomposition reaction. Typically, SADT is inversely proportional to package size. Larger packages will have a lower SADT due to smaller ratio to heat transfer area to volume of product. Hazardous decomposition products: Thermal decomposition yields flammable and toxic products: Aromatic derivatives Carbon oxides 11.

Emergency Overview: High airborne levels of dust may cause irritation to eyes and upper respiratory tract.

Acute Health Effects: Inhalation: Excessive exposure to high concentrations of dust may cause irritation to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract. Eye: Dusts may cause irritation to the eye. Scratching of cornea can occur if eye is rubbed. Ingestion: Ingestion of harmful amounts of this product as distributed is unlikely due to its solid insoluble form. Ingestion of excessive amounts of dust may cause nausea and vomiting. Chronic Health Effects: Chronic inhalation of respirable crystalline silica may cause silicosis; a fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs. Silicosis may be progressive; it may lead to disability and death. Crystalline silica inhaled from occupational sources is classified as carcinogenic to humans.

Section 4 – First Aid Measures Inhalation: If there is a gross inhalation of crystalline silica, remove the person immediately to fresh air. Consult a physician if necessary. Ingestion: Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Dilute by drinking large quantities of water. If discomfort persists, consult a physician. Eye Contact: Wash eyes with large amounts of water. If irritation persists, consult a physician. Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a physician.

Section 10 - Stability and Reactivity

Stability: Stable under normal handling and storage conditions.

Hazardous Polymerization: Cannot occur.

Chemical Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Contact with powerful oxidizing agents such as fluorine, chlorine, triflouride, manganese trioxide, oxygen diflouride, may cause fires.

Hazardous Decomposition Products: Crystalline silica will dissolve in hydrofluoric acid and produce a corrosive gas (silicon tetraflouride).

Section 11 - Toxicological Information

Silicosis: The major concern is silicosis, caused by the inhalation and retention of respirable crystalline silica dust. Silicosis can exist in several forms, chronic (or ordinary), accelerated, or acute.

Chronic or Ordinary Silicosis (often referred to as Simple Silicosis) is the most common form of silicosis, and can occur after many years of exposure to relatively low concentrations of airborne respirable crystalline silica dust.

Accelerated Silicosis can occur with exposure to high concentrations of respirable crystalline silica over a shorter period.

Acute Silicosis can occur with exposures to very high concentrations of respirable crystalline silica over a very short period, sometimes as short as a few months. The symptoms of acute silicosis include progressive shortness of breath, fever, cough, weight loss. Acute silicosis can be fatal.

Carcinogen: IARC - Yes NTP - Yes OSHA - No

Autoimmune Diseases: Several studies have reported cases of several autoimmune disorders such as scleroderma, systemic lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis among silica exposed workers.

Tuberculosis: Individuals with silicosis are at increased risk to develop pulmonary tuberculosis, if exposed to persons with tuberculosis.

Kidney Disease: Several studies have reported excess cases of kidney diseases, including end stage renal disease, among silica-exposed workers.

Section 12 - Ecological Information

Crystalline Silica is not known to be ecotoxic, i.e., there are no data that suggests that crystalline silica is toxic to birds, fish, invertebrates, microorganisms or plants.

Section 13 - Disposal Considerations

General: Disposal of the Material should be in accordance with the applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.
