MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED OR ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN. CAUSES
IRRITATION TO SKIN, EYES AND RESPIRATORY TRACT. MAY AFFECT CENTRAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM. THERE IS LIMITED INF ORMATION AVAILABLE ON THE
HAZARDS OF THIS CHEMICAL. IT IS ASSUMED THAT IT WILL BEHAVE
SIMILARLY TO OTHER UNSATURATED AMIDES. INHALATION: DUST INHALATION
OF UNSATURATED AMIDES MAY CAUSE DROWSINESS, TIN GLING SENSATIONS,

Explanation of Carcinogenicity:N,N'-METHYLENEBISACRYLAMIDE (110-26-9):
NTP CARCINOGEN - KNOWN: NO; ANTICIPATED: NO; IARC CATETORY: NONE.
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZS: CAUSE SYSTEMIC POISONING WITH
SYMPTOMS INCLUDING DROWSINESS, TINGLING SENSATIONS, FATIGUE,
WEAKNESS, STUMBLING, SLURRED SPEECH AND SHAKING. SKIN CONTACT:
UNSATURATED AMIDES CAUSE IRRITATION AND REDNESS. SOLUTIONS MAY BE
ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN CAUSING SYSTEMIC POISONING; SYMPTOMS MAY
PARALLEL INGESTION. EYE CONTACT: CAUSES IRRITATION, REDNESS AND
PAIN. CHRONIC: PROLONGED OR REPEATED EXPOS URE TO UNSATURATED
AMIDES THROUGH ANY ROUTE MAY CAUSE MUSCULAR WEAKNESS,
INCOORDINATION, SKIN RASHES, EXCESSIVE SWEATING OF HANDS AND FEET,
COLD HANDS AND PEELING OF SKIN.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH PRE-EXISTING SKIN
DISORDERS, EYE PROBLEMS OR CENTRAL OR PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
CONDITIONS MAY BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THIS
SUBSTANCE.

First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING GIVE
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN.
CALL MD. INGESTION: GIVE LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER TO DRINK. NEVER
GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. GET MEDICAL
ATTENTION. SKIN: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF SOAP WATER FOR AT
LEAST 15 MINUTES WHILE REMOVING CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES.
WASH CLOTHING BEFORE RE USE. CALL MD. EYES: IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH
PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES, LIFTING LOWER AND UPPER
EYELIDS OCCASIONALLY. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

Extinguishing Media:WATER SPRAY, DRY CHEMICAL, ALCOHOL FOAM, OR CARBON
DIOXIDE. DO NOT USE HIGH PRESSURE WATER STREAM.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:AS WITH MOST ORGANIC SOLIDS, FIRE IS
POSSIBLE AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES OR BY CONTACT WITH AN IGNITION
SOURCE. NOT CONSIDERED TO BE AN EXPLOSION HAZARD. NFPA RATINGS:
HEALTH - 2; FLAMMABILITY - 1; REAC TIVITY - 0.

Spill Release Procedures:VENTILATE AREA. WEAR APPROPRIATE PERSONAL
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AS SPECIFIED IN THIS MSDS. SPILLS: PICK UP AND
PLACE IN A SUITABLE CONTAINER FOR RECLAMATION OR DISPOSAL, USING A
METHOD THAT DOES NOT GE NERATE DUST.

Handling and Storage Precautions:STORAGE COLOR CODE: WHITE (CORROSIVE).
KEEP IN A TIGHTLY CLOSED CONTAINER. STORE IN A COOL, DRY,
VENTILATED AREA AWAY FROM SOURCES OF HEAT OR IGNITION. PROTECT
CONTAINER FROM PHYSICAL DAMAGE. ISOLATE FROM OXIDIZING MATERIALS.
AVOID BREATHING DUST. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN AND CLOTHING.
Other Precautions:USE ONLY WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. CONTAINERS OF
THIS MATERIAL MAY BE HAZARDOUS WHEN EMPTY SINCE THEY RETAIN PRODUCT
RESIDUES (DUST, SOLIDS); OBSERVE ALL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
LISTED FOR THE PRODU CT.

Respiratory Protection:FOR CONDITIONS OF USE WHERE EXPOSURE TO THE
DUST/MIST IS APPARENT, A NIOSH APPROVED HALF-FACE DUST/MIST
RESPIRATOR MAY BE WORN. FOR EMERGENCIES/INSTANCES WHERE THE
EXPOSURE LEVELS ARE NOT KNOWN, USE A NIOSH APPROVED FULL-FACE
POSITIVE-PRESSURE, AIR-SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR. WARNING: AIR-PURIFYING
RESPIRATORS DO NOT PROTECT WORKERS IN OXYGEN-DEFICIENT ATMOSPHERES.
Ventilation:SYS OF LOC &/OR GEN EXHST IS REC TO KEEP EMPLOYEE EXPOS AS
LOW AS POSS. LOC EXHST VENT IS GENERALLY PREF BECAUSE IT CAN
CONTROL EMISSIONS OF CONTAM AT (SUPDAT)
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES .
Eye Protection:ANSI APPROVED CHEMICAL WORKERS GOGGLES & FULL LENGTH
FACESHIELD .
Other Protective Equipment:ANSI APPROVED EMERGENCY EYEWASH AND DELUGE
SHOWER . WEAR IMPERVIOUS PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, INCLUDING BOOTS, LAB
COAT, APRON OR COVERALLS, AS APPROPRIATE, TO PREVENT SKIN CONTACT.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING.
