Health Warning Information
Health Effects
Swallowed: Harmful if swallowed. May cause irritations to mouth, throat. stomach, tongue and lips and may lead to mucous build up, irriation and pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Vomiting may cause product to be aspirated into lungs, which may cause chemical pneumonitis.
Eyes: May cause irritation, stinging and burning. Long term exposure can cause damage.
Skin: Irritation burning sensation with redness, itchiness and possible dermatitis
Inhaled: Harmful if inhaled. Effects may be immediate or delayed. Mild cases: Irritation to mouth, nose or throat with coughing, wheezing or tightness of the chest. Severe cases: Person may suffer acute bronchial irritation with asthma like symptoms. It is unlikely that the product would be inhaled due to its viscosity. Inhaled matter is likely to be Xylene and product traces.
First Aid
Swallowed: DO NOT induce vomiting. Put person at rest and seek medical urgent advise.
Eyes: Flush eyes with copious amounts of clean water holding eye lid open. Seek medical attention.
Skin: Wipe product off skin, wash skin with soap and warm water. Apply moisturising cream. Seek medical advice.
Personal Protection: The use of solvent resistant gloves, coveralls, safety boots and goggles (against splashes) are recommended.
Keep flame, sparkes and sources of ignition away from uncured product.
Advice to Doctor
Treat Symptomatically. Asthmatics are susceptible to asthma attack if exposed to isocyantaes.
There may be a delayed response up to 12 hours after exposure.
In case of poisoning, contact Poison Information Centre: Australia Telephone: 131126; New Zealand Telephone 034747000
Precautions in Use
Follow normal good industrial hygiene and chemical precautions, particularly in respect of flammability. Use in well ventilated areas and provide flame proof artificial ventilation if required to maintain concentrations below xylene exposure standard of 350g/m2 (TWA) 655 mg/m2 (STEL) or 100ppm.
Keep sparks and ignition sources away from product during application, as product is flammable.
Wear solvent resistant gloves, goggles, coveralls, safety boots.
Exposure Limits
No exposure limits are available for this product, however the NOSHSC have assigned the following limits for the components of the product:
Xylene: TWA 80ppm or 350mg / m3 STEL 150ppm 655 mg / m3
ACGIH: TWA 100ppm or 434mg / m3 STEL 150ppm 651 mg / m3 Carginogen category: A4 Notices: BEI
1-Methoxy-2-Propanol Acetate: TWA 50ppm 254 mg / m3 STEL 100ppm 548 mg/m3 Notices: Sk
Dicyclohexymethane-4,4'-Diisocyantae (NOHSC Australia: Isocyanates, all (as -NCO) TWA 0.02 mg / m3 STEL 0.07 mg / m3 Notices: Sen
Ventilation
Good ventilation is important and recommended.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Flammable liquid. Eliminate all sources of ignition until fully cured. Vapours may accumulate in low lying areas which should be dispersed.
Personal Protection
The use of solvent resistant gloves, coveralls, safety footwear and goggles (against splashes) are recommended.
If exhaust ventilation is inadequate use approved respirator.
Safe Handling Information
Storage and Transport
Store in a cool dry place, away from direct sunlight and ignition sources. Store away from strong acids, alkalis, oxidising agents and combustibiles. Keep containers tightly sealed when not used. Protect from damage.
Suitable containers: Plain metal pails as recommended by manufacturer.
Class 3 dangerous goods must be declared prior to transportation.
Ensure containers are correctly labeled and leak free.
Spills and Disposal
Spills: Wear protective clothing. Remove sources of ignition. Ventilate area. Prevent spills from entering drains and waterways. Absorb with wet sand or oil absorbing material. Do not use saw dust or other combustible material. Place in to suitable containers and DO NOT seal containers. Discard to suitable landfill in accordance with local council regulations.
Disposal: Shovel into drums, incinerate or land tip in accordance with local regulation.
Do not allow product to enter drains or waterways.
Fire / Explosion Hazard
STABILITY & REACTIVITY: Stable under normal conditions. Will become unstable and may lead to explosion if mixed with oxidising agents. Emits toxic fumes including oxides of carbon and nitrogen, hydrogen cyanide and isocyanate vapours when heated to decomposition.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERISATION: Will not occur under normal conditions of use.
FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES:
MEDIA: Use dry chemicals, carbon dioxde or foam.
SPECIAL PROCEDURES: Fire fighters should wear SCBA's.
UNUSUAL HAZARDS: Vapours may travel and pose a risk from other sources of ignition and can ignite.
INCOMPATIBILITIES: String alkalis, acids, oxidising agents, nitrates, amines, carboxylic acids and water. Reactions to amines, alcohols, acids and alkalis are exothermic. Reactions to water can lead to increased pressure in closed containers with risk of bursting.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Heat, flames, ignition sources, moisture / water and incompatible. Heat can cause cans to rupture.
FLAMMABILITY: Product is flammable.
Containers should be kept cool with water spray to prevent pressure build up.
