LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (LEL)(%): 1.1 @ 150 C MAK
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: 
Dry Chemical; Carbon Dioxide; Foam
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:
Full emergency equipment with self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn. During a fire irritating, toxic gases (see Reactivity Data) and smoke are present from decomposition/combustion. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Closed container may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Use cold water spray to cool fire-exposed containers to minimize risk of rupture. Solvent vapors may be heavier than air. Under conditions of stagnant air, vapors may build up and travel along the ground to an ignition source which may result in a flash back to the source of the vapors.
 

5. HUMAN HEALTH DATA:

ROUTE (S) OF ENTRY:
Inhalation; Skin Contact; Skin Absorption; Eye Contact
HUMAN EFFECTS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
ACUTE INHALATION
Solvent vapors are irritating to the eyes,
nose, throat and respiratory tract resulting in red, itchy eyes, dryness
the throat and tightness in the chest. Other possible symptoms of
overexposure include headache, nausea, narcosis, fatigue and loss of
appetite. At 200 ppm of butyl acetate, persons have developed irritation of the eyes, nose and throat. These symptoms were severe at 300 ppm of butyl acetate. Overexposure to crystalline silica and titanium dioxide cause upper respiratory tract irritation. Symptoms may include coughing and shortness of breath.
CHRONIC INHALATION
Chronic exposure to organic solvents has been
associated with various neurotoxic effects including permanent brain and
nervous system damage. Symptoms include loss of memory, loss of
intellectual ability, and loss of coordination. Excessive exposure to
airborne crystalline silica can cause fibrotic lung damage, with scarring
of the lungs and with coughing and shortness of breath. This condition is called "silicosis".
ACUTE SKIN CONTACT
Repeated or prolonged skin contact with solvents can result in dry, defatted and cracked skin causing increased  susceptibility to infection. In addition, irritation (i.e. redness, swelling ) which may develop into dermatitis (inflammation) may occur from skin contact. Solvents can penetrate the skin causing effects similar to those identified under acute inhalation symptoms
CHRONIC SKIN CONTACT
Chronic skin exposure to the solvent may cause effects similar to those identified under chronic inhalation effects.
ACUTE EYE CONTACT
Liquid, aerosols or vapors are severely irritating to the eyes and can cause pain, tearing, redness and swelling. If left untreated, corneal damage can occur and injury is slow to heal. However, damage is usually reversible. See Section VI for treatment. Titanium dioxide can cause uncomfortable deposits in the eyes, ears and nose, but does not cause any toxic effect or disease when exposure is kept below the TLV.  
CHRONIC EYE CONTACT
Prolonged vapor contact may cause conjunctivitis.
ACUTE INGESTION 
Can result in irritation in the mouth, stomach tissue and digestive tract. Symptoms can include sore throat, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Vomiting may cause aspiration resulting in chemical pneumonitis.
CHRONIC INGESTION
None determined.
CARCINOGENICITY
NTP  :  Not listed
IARC  :  Crystalline silica has been classified by IARC as Group 2A - "there is limited evidence of carcinogenicity in humans and
sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals" (IARC Monographs, Vol. 42).
OSHA  :  Not regulated
OTHER : 
MEDICAL CONDITIONS
None determined. 
EXPOSURE LIMITS :
Not established for this product as a whole, refer to Section II for exposure limits of hazardous constituents.
 

6. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:

FIRST AID FOR EYES:
Flush with clean, lukewarm water (low pressure) for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists..
FIRST AID FOR SKIN:
Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash affected areas thoroughly with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly before reuse. 
FIRST AID FOR INHALATION:
Move to an area free from risk of further exposure. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration as needed. Obtain medical attention. 
FIRST AID FOR INGESTION:
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give a glass of milk or water to drink. DO NOT GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. Consult a physician.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
None Mentioned.
 

7. EMPLOYEE PROTECTION RECOMMENDATIONS:

EYE PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS: 
Liquid chemical goggles or full-face shield. Contact lenses should not be worn.
SKIN PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS: 
Permeation resistant gloves (butyl rubber, nitrile rubber). Cover as much of the exposed skin area as possible with appropriate clothing. If skin creams are used, keep the area protected only by the cream to a minimum.
RESPIRATORY/VENTILATION REQUIREMENT: 
Exhaust ventilation sufficient to keep t airborne concentrations of solvents and other hazardous constituents in t workplace below their respective TLVs or other appropriate exposure limit must be utilized. Exhaust air may need to be cleaned by scrubbers or filters to reduce environmental contamination. Curing ovens must be ventilated to prevent the build up of explosive atmospheres and to prevent off gases from entering the work place. in addition, a respirator that '_ recommended or approved for use in organic vapor containing environments (air purifying or fresh air ,supplied) may be necessary. In spray applications, an organic vapor/ particulate respirator or air supplied unit is necessary. Consider type of application and environmental concentrations. The use of a positive pressure supplied air respirator is mandatory when: airborne concentrations are not known; when levels are 10 times the appropriate TLV; or if spraying is performed in a confined space or area with limited ventilation. Take into account other materials being used concurrently. Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134).
MONITORING:
None Mentioned.
MEDICAL SURVEILLANCE:
None Mentioned.
ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE MEASURES:
Safety showers and eye wash stations should be easily accessible to the work area.
 

8. REACTIVITY DATA:

STABILITY:
This is a stable material.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: 
Will not occur.
INCOMPATIBILITIES:
Trimethylol propane s used in the manufacture of the polyester resin; therefore, it should not be combined with phosphorus containing materials because highly toxic fumes can be emitted in a fire situation.
INSTABILITY CONDITIONS:
None determined
DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:
By fire: C0, C02

 

9. SPILL AND LEAK PROCEDURES:

SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES: 
Evacuate non-essential personnel. Remove all sources of ignition and ventilate the area. Equip clean-up crew with appropriate protective equipment (i.e., clothing, respiratory, etc. See Employee Protection Recommendations). Dike or impound spilled material a:: control further spillage if feasible. Notify appropriate authorities if necessary. Cover spill with sawdust, vermiculite, Fuller's earth or other absorbent material; pour liquid decontaminate over spillage and allow to react for at least 10 min. Collect material in open containers and add further amounts of decontamination solution. Remove containers to safe place and cover loosely. Wash down area with liquid decontaminant and flush area with water.
NEUTRALIZATION CHEMICALS

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:
 Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state and focal environmental control regulations. Empty containers must be handled with care due to product residue and flammable solvent vapor. DO NOT HEAT OR CUT EMPTY CONTAINER WITH ELECTRIC OR GAS TORCH. (See Sections IV. & VIII.)
