313 Listed Chemicals
If none are listed here, there are no 313 chemicals present above
threshold values.
Appearance: Clear, colorless fluid mild odor.
Potential Health Effects:
Eye: May cause eye irritation
Skin Contact: Concentrate may cause skin irritation.
Skin Absorption: No accute effects expected.
Ingestion: This product may cause gastrointestinal distress with
symptoms of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain
Inhalation: Inhalation of decomposition products (occurs if heated
above 300° C (572° F) or of smoke from contaminated tobacco
products may cause respiratory irritation and induce
Polymer Fume Fever condition. Symptoms of exposure to
decomposition products are: lung irritation, pulmonary
edema, flu-like symptoms (example: fever and chills).
No medical conditions are known to be aggravated by
exposure.
Chronic effects: A review of the literature does not sow obvious long
term hazard.
Carcinogenicty: No component known to be present in this product is
at > 0.1% is presently listed as a carcinogen by IARC
or OSHA unless other wise noted.
Routes of exposure: Skin contact, eye contact, inhalation
Eyes: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with copious
amounts of flowing water for at least 15 minutes, retracting
eye lids often. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
Skin: Wash skin thoroughly with mild soap and water. Flush with
luke warm water for 15 minutes. Obtain immediate medical
attention if fluid is injected under the skin.
Inhalation: If symptoms of irritation or discomfort are experienced,
or person is overcome by exposure, remove at once to fresh
air. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as needed.
Polymer Fume Fever symptoms should subside within
twenty four hours.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting! Immediate give two glasses of
charcoal slurry or plain water. Do not attempt to give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Contact a
physician at once.
Flammability classification: Not classified.
Flash Point/Method: None
Auto-Ignition Temperature: Not determined
Flammable Limits: Lower: Not applicable
Upper: Not applicable
Extinguishing Media: Water (spray or fog), foam, dry chemical or
carbon dioxide (CO2)
Special Conditions to Avoid: High temperatures
Hazardous products of Combustion: Decompostion at high temperatures
(> 200° C/392° F)
Unusual Fire Hazards:
Fluoropolymers will degrade upon prolonged heating or in a fire,
liberating carbonyl fluoride and hydrogen fluoride (HF). This gas
is toxic if inhaled or it comes into contact with moist skin. HF has
an ACGIH TLV ceiling limit of 3 ppm (2.6 mg/m3) and an OSHA PEL TWA
of 3 ppm. Carbonyl fluoride has an ACGIL TLV and OSHA PEL TWA of 2 ppm
(5 mg/m3).
Firefighting procedures/instructions:
Water or foam may cause frothing. Use water to keep fire expored
container cool. Water spray may be used to flush spills away from
exposure. For fires in the enclosed areas, firefighters must use
self-contained breathing apparatus. Prevent run off from fire control
or dilution from entering streams or drinking water supply.
Properties that could increase fire or explosion hazard:
None known.
Large spills: Wear appropriate protective clothing. Stop source of leak if possible. Dike, contain spill and recover free liquid. Prevent entry into waterways. Soak up residue with an inert absorbent such as clay, sand or other suitable materials; Store and dispose of properly. Flush area with water. Where feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated soil. Small spills: Neutralize and/or soak up spill with inert absorbent. Store in a closed container and dispose of properly.
Storage and handling: Store in sealed containers. Do not store near combustible materials. Keep away from heat, sparks, strong oxidizing agents, and flames. Avoid prolonged breathing of the vapors. Wash hands after use and before handling food or applying cosmetics. Do not use tobacco products in the immediate area. Do not contaminate cigarette or cigar products with the product because it will decompose in the heat of the cigarette (or cigar) to HF which is very toxic.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Eye/Face Protection: ANSI 87.1 approved safety glasses with side shield or chemical goggles or equivalent. Skin Protection: Use Neoprene-type gloves when handling this product. Respiratory Protection: Good industrial hygiene practices recommend that engineering controls be used to reduce environmental concentrations to the threshold limit value (TLV), if applicable. If an applicable TLV is exceeded provide NIOSH approved respiratory protection. Not normally required: Provide exhaust if temperature is expected to exceed 300° C (572° F). Other: Impervious protective clothing and chemical resistant safety shoes should be worn to minimize contact. Wash contaminated clothing with soap and water and dry before reuse. Emergency shower and eyewash facility should be provided in all areas in which this product is handled. Exposure guidelines: See information provided in Section 2, Ingredients.
