Section III – Hazardous Identification

The use of this product may produce wood fibers.
U.S. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200 – certain wood fibers are considered hazardous if the application areas air quality exceeds OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits.
Emergency Overview: Product is considered non hazardous. Not suitable or intended for human consumption.
Cutting, grinding and sanding the product could release dust.

Eye Health Effects/Symptoms: Wood dust can cause irritation to eyes.
Skin Health Effects/Symptoms: Presumed to be minimally irritating to the skin.

Inhalation Health Effects/Symptoms: Wood fiber dust can cause irritation to the nose, throat, and respiratory tract. Repeated exposure can cause allergic skin and respiratory reaction.

Ingestion Health Effects/Symptoms: Considered to have a low order of acute oral toxicity.

Carcinogenicity Data: This product’s ingredients are not listed as carcinogenic by NTP (National Toxicology Program), or regulated as carcinogens by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

Section IV – First Aid Measures

Eyes: Flush with water. Physician should remove particles
Skin: Wash with soap to remove residues. If contact with molten product occurs, treat as for ordinary burn. Cool rapidly with cool water. Do not attempt to peel polymer from skin. Obtain medical attention for thermal burns.

Inhalation: No adverse effects by breathing small amounts during proper industrial handling.
Ingestion: No adverse effects.

Section V – Fire and Explosion Data

Flammable Condition: Will burn, but will not sustain flame.
Extinguishing: Use water or fire extinguisher appropriate for surrounding materials.
Unusual Fire & Explosion hazards: Exposure to fire can generate toxic fumes. High dust levels may create hazard from explosion.
Explosion Hazards: Fire fighters must use self-contained breathing apparatus in enclosed area.

Combustion Products – May emit Hydrogen Chloride (HCl), Carbon Monoxide (CO) Carbon Dioxide (CO2) under fire conditions.
Additional Information: Material will burn as a combustible solid.

Section VI – Accidental Release Procedures

Spill Procedures - Sweep up and dispose

Section VII – Handling and Storage

Handling and Storage Protection: No special storage hazards.

Section IX – Physical and Chemical Properties

Boiling Point: N/A Vapor Pressure: N/A
Melting Point: N/A Percent volatiles: N/A
Vapor density: N/A Specific Gravity: approximately 0.7 g/cm³
Evaporation Rate: N/A Solubility: N/A
Oil/Water coefficient: N/A Odor Threshold: N/A
Odor and Appearance: Light brown to medium brown solid. No odor.
Flash Point: >180º F

Section X – Stability and Reactivity

Stability: Normally stable at ambient temperature conditions
Incompatibility: Strong Oxidizers Decomposition: Very slow
Polymerization: None

Conditions to avoid: Heat and flame. Dust buildup.
