Emergency overview:
This material is not hazardous by OSHA Hazard Communication
Definition
Signal Word
CAUTION!
Physical Health Hazards:
Dust may form explosive mixtures with air. Molten polymer may
cause thermal burns. Irritating fumes may be produced at process
temperatures.
Physical state: Liquid
Color: Clear, red, or blue depending on specific product number
Odor: Acrid acrylic odor
Odor threshold: No data available
Potential Health Effects:
Routes of exposure
Eye contact, ingestion, skin contact
Signs and Symptoms of Acute Exposure:
Not known
Skin contact:
Irritation (acute) can occur.
Allergic reactions may occur (chronic)
Inhalation:
At process temperatures irritating fumes may be produced.
Inhalation of process fumes may cause soreness in the nose
and throat and coughing. Inhaling polyethylene dust is
considered a nuisance.
Eye contact:
Vapor or mist irritates mucous membranes and the upper
respiratory tract.
Ingestion:
Nausea and vomiting
Chronic Health Effects Summary:
Allergic skin reactions may occur resulting in severe
dermatitis conditions.
Conditions Aggravated by Exposure:
No known conditions are aggravated by this material.
Take proper precautions to ensure your own health and safety before
attempting to rescue and providing first aid.
Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration
and call physician immediately.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes.
Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with copious amounts of water.
Ingestion: Call physician immediately.
Other: Prolonged exposure may cause narcotic effect.
