SECTION II - COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
|
This product consists primarily of high molecular weight PVC polymers which are not hazardous under Federal OSHA regulations.
SECTION III - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
|
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: There are no significant health hazards associated with exposure to this product.
Fabrication: The product is a solid sheet material. Cutting and fabricating activities utilizing impact or power equipment may release small chips or shards, which are a hazard to the eyes. Grinding and sanding operations may release small quantities of dust with particles generally larger than respirable size.
Burning: Toxic gases and fumes are given off during burning or thermal decomposition. Burning produces intense heat and dense smoke.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Overexposure to this product is not likely to cause any significant acute effect.
| HMIS RATING: |
Health: 0 |
Fire: 1 |
Physical Hazard: 0 |
Personal Protection: B |
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
- ROUTES OF ENTRY: Eyes, Inhalation
- ACUTE EFFECTS: Coarse dust and particulate generated during fabrication can irritate eyes, nasal passages, and the upper respiratory system.
- CHRONIC EFFECTS: Chronic effects are unlikely.
- MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Chronic respiratory disease.
- CARCINOGENICITY: This product is not classified or regulated by NTP, IARC, or OSHA.
|
SECTION IV - FIRST AID MEASURES
|
EYE CONTACT: To remove particulate matter, flush with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. See a physician if irritation persists.
INHALATION: Blow nose and rinse mouth with water to clear dust and particulate. If exposed to excessive levels of dust or fumes, remove to fresh air and get medical attention if cough or other symptoms develop.
|
SECTION V - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
|
| NFPA RATING: |
Health: 0 |
Fire: 1 |
Reactivity: 0 |
Other: -- |
FLASH POINT AND METHOD: Not applicable.
EXTINGUISHING METHOD: CO2, dry chemical, water spray and foam.
NFPA FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical, or CO2 applied from a safe distance to avoid exposure to hazardous vapors and other decomposition products.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Product is a combustible thermoplastic resin but it will not continue to burn after ignition without an external fire source. Because of the potential for dense smoke in a fire situation, fire fighters should wear approved self-contained breathing apparatus.
HARMFUL COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Intense heat, smoke, irritating toxic gases, and aerosols, including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen chloride, and metal oxides (no heavy metals) may be generated by thermal decomposition when the product undergoes combustion.
|
SECTION VI - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
|
SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES: Sweep or pick-up fabrication debris. Debris may usually be disposed of in a non-regulated landfill. However, prior to disposal, it is recommended that the regulations in effect for the particular area where disposal is to take place be checked to prevent improper disposal.
|
SECTION VII - HANDLING AND STORAGE
|
STORAGE TEMPERATURE: Store in well ventilated areas at temperatures below 120° F (49° C).
SPECIAL SENSITIVITY: None
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS: Use good housekeeping procedures to minimize the accumulation of dust during fabrication procedures.
|
SECTION VIII - EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
|
EYE PROTECTION: Wear safety glasses or face shields when cutting or machining.
SKIN PROTECTION: Gloves are recommended when fabricating due to possible sharp edges.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: For nuisance dust not otherwise regulated, observe the OSHA PEL of 15 mg/m3. When exposures over the PEL are encountered and engineering or other controls are not adequate to reduce airborne concentrations to below the PEL, use a dust mask such as 3M-8710 or equivalent.
|
