INORGANIC PIGMENTS, (PROPRIETARY)

Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:NO ACUTE OR CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
ANTICIPATED UNDER NORMAL HANDLING AND USE. OVERHEATING
(OVER260C/500F), BURNING, GRINDING, MELTING, CUTTING, ANY PROCESS
RELEASING DUST, FUME, OR GAS MAY CAUSE IRRIT ATION OF EYES, SKIN,
RESPIRATORY TRACT, "POLYMER FUME FEVER" (A TEMPORARY FLU-LIKE
ILLNESS WITH FEVER, CHILLS, SOMETIMES COUGH, OF ABOUT 24 HOURS
DURATION). INHALATION OF LOW CONCENTRATIONS OF HYDROGE N FLUORIDE,
CARBONYL FLUORIDE , OTHER THERMAL DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS MAY RESULT
IN TEMPORARY LUNG IRRITATION, DIFFICULTY BREATHING, SHORTNESS OF
BREATH. SMOKERS SHOULD AVOID CONTAMINATED TOBACCO PRODU CTS AND
WASH HANDS BEFORE SMOKING.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NO INGREDIENT IN THIS PRODUCT IS LISTED
BY IARC, NTP, OSHA, OR ACGIH AS A CARCINOGEN.
Effects of Overexposure:EXPOSURE TO THIS PRODUCT IN ITS PURCHASED FORN
IS NOT EXPECTED TO PRESENT A HEALTH HAZARD. THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF
THIS PRODUCT HAVE NOT BEEN EVALUATED. THE EFFECTS LISTED IN THE
"HEALTH HAZARD ACUTE AN D CHRONIC" FIELD ARE FOR THE INDIVIDUAL
COMPONENTS. SYMPTOMS FROM OVERHEATING, BURNING, GRINDING, MELTING,
CUTTING, OR ANY OTHER PROCESS CAUSING DUST, FUME, OR GAS:
IRRITATION OF THE EYES, SKIN, RESP IRATORY TRACT, FEVER, CHILLS,
COUGH, LUNG IRRITATION, DIFFICULTY BREATHING, SHORTNESS OF BREATH.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:INDIVIDUALS WITH PRE-EXISTING
DISEASES OF THE LUNGS MAY HAVE INCREASED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO DUST OR
THERMAL DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS.

First Aid:INHALATION: IF INHALATION OF THERMAL DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS
OR DUST PRODUCES RESPIRATORY DIFFICULTY, OR IRRITATION MOVE PERSON
TO FRESH AIR. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST. IF
BREATHING STOP S, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION AND SEEK MEDICAL
ATTENTION. SKIN: IF MOLTEN MATERIAL GETS ON SKIN, COOL RAPIDLY WITH
COLD WATER. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE FROM SKIN. OBTAIN MEDICAL
TREATMENT FOR THEM AL BURNS. EYES: FLUSH WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF
WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES, OCCASIONALLY LIFTING THE LOWER AND
UPPER LIDS.GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST. INGESTION:
GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Flash Point:NOT ESTABLISHED.
Lower Limits:N/E
Upper Limits:N/E
Extinguishing Media:DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER, OR REGULAR
FOAM. USE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA APPROPRIATE FOR SURROUNDING FIRE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:KEEP PERSONNEL REMOVED FROM AND UPWIND OF
FIRE. FULL EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT WITH SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS AND FULL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SHOULD BE WORN. HYDROGEN
FLUORIDE FUMES EMITTED DURING A FIRE CAN REACT WITH WATER TO FORM
HYDROFLUORIC ACID. WEAR NEOPRENE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING REFUSE FROM
FIRE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:HAZARDOUS GASES/VAPORS PRODUCED IN FIRE
ARE HYDROGEN FLUORIDE (HF), CARBONYL FLUORIDE, CARBON MONOXIDE,
CARBON DIOXIDE, AND LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT FLUOROCARBONS.

Spill Release Procedures:USE APPROPRIATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
DURING CLEAN-UP. REVIEW FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES AND HANDLING
PROCEEDINGS BEFORE STARTING CLEAN-UP. SPILLED MATERIAL MAY PRESENT
A SLIPPING HAZARD. COLLECT BY SWEEPING OR VACUUMING ANY LOOSE
MATERIAL TO PREVENT ACCUMULATION OF PRODUCT.

Handling and Storage Precautions:AVOID BREATHING DUST OR DECOMPOSITION
PRODUCTS. AVOID CONTAMINATION OF CIGARETTES OR TOBACCO WITH DUST
FROM THIS MATERIAL. STORE IN A DRY AREA

Respiratory Protection:RESPIRATORY PROTECTION IS NOT NORMALLY REQUIRED
UNDER ANTICIPATED CONDITIONS OF USE. IF RESPIRATORS ARE NECESSARY,
USE ONLY NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATORS.
Ventilation:USE LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION WHEN HEATING OR MELTING
MATERIAL. PROVIDE EXHAUST VENTILATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH GUIDELINES
IN INDUSTRIAL VENTILATION BY ACGIH.
Protective Gloves:WEAR NEOPRENE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING REFUSE FROM FIRE.
Eye Protection:SAFETY GLASSES SHOULD BE WORN IF HANDLING PRESENTS A
HAZARD OF EYE INJURY.
Other Protective Equipment:PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: NONE REQUIRED UNLESS
NECESSARY FOR PROTECTION FROM THERMAL BURNS OR DUST PARTICLES.
Work Hygienic Practices:AVOID BREATHING DUST OR DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS.
AVOID CONTAMINATION OF CIGARETTES OR TOBACCO WITH DUST FROM THIS
PRODUCT.
