UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:

Vapors are heavier than air and travel along the ground or may be moved by ventilation and ignited by ignition sources at location distant from material handling point.  For aerosol products – exposure to temperatures over 130°F may cause containers to burst, releasing highly flammable gas.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece operated in pressure-demand or other positive pressure mode when fighting fires.  Keep fire exposed containers cool with water fog.

STABILITY: 

x Stable  Unstable

Incompatibility :

Oxidizing agents.  Acids, alkali, alkaline earth metals, amines, reducing agents, strong oxidizers, very strong acid, caustic, or oxidizing agents.

Hazardous Decomposition:

Hydrofluoric acid and possibly carbonyl fluoride.  Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.  Various hydrocarbons, sulfur dioxide, sulfer monoxide.

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION:     

May Occur   xWill not occur

Conditions to Avoid:

Heat, sparks, welding arcs, open flame, static electricity, or other source of ignition.

INGESTION:  

No information.

EYES:                  

Can cause severe irritation, redness, tearing, blurred vision.

INHALATION:       

Excessive inhalation of vapors can cause nasal and respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache, possible unconsciousness, and even asphyxiation.  Possible cardiac arrhythmias at high concentrations.

SKIN:

Prolonged or repeated contact can cause moderate irritation defatting, dermatitis.

INGESTION:

Do not induce vomiting.  Give two glasses of water if conscious.  Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.  Get immediate medical attention.

EYES:

Flush with large amounts of water, lifting upper and lower lids occasionally, get medical attention.

INHALATION:

Remove individual to fresh air.  If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.  Give artificial respiration if breathing has stopped.  Keep person warm and quiet.  Get medical attention.

SKIN:

Thoroughly wash exposed area with soap and water.  Remove contaminated clothing.  Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.  Get medical attention if irritation persists.  Mineral oil, baby oil, makeup remover, mineral spirits, or other similar mild solvent may be used to remove the sticky resin residue left by the adhesive.

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE LARGE AMOUNTS ARE RELEASED:

Eliminate sources of ignition and ventilate area.  Persons not properly equipped should be excluded from area.  Stop spill at source – prevent spreading.  Avoid inhalation of vapors.  Avoid skin contact with liquid.  Soak up on absorbent material and place into proper container for disposal.  Use non-sparking scoops for flammable materials.  Clean walking surfaces thoroughly to reduce slipping hazard.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:

Dispose of in accordance with all local, state and federal regulations.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE:

Do not store above 120°F.  Do not store in direct sunlight.  Keep away from heat sources, open flame, sparks. 

OTHER PRECAUTIONS:

N/A

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:

If work place exposure limits of product or any component is exceeded, use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator.  Consult your safety equipment supplier for recommendations.

VENTILATION:

Provide sufficient mechanical ventilation (General and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below TLV(s).

LOCAL EXHAUST:

N/A

PROTECTIVE GLOVES:

Wear impervious gloves if method of use involves skin contact with product.  Consult your safety supply vendor for glove recommendations.

EYE PROTECTION:

Wear safety at minimum, more extensive protection may be necessary depending on how the product us to be used.
