Section IV - Fire and Explosive Hazard Data
Flammable Classification Resin Portion Only Metal Portion N/A Unless indicated:
OSHA: Flammable Material
DOT Proper Shipping Name: Resin Solution
DOT Hazard Class: Flammable Material
UN/NA Number: UN1866

Flashpoint: 78 F TCC (ASTM D - 56)

Flammable Limits: (Lowest Value of Components) Lower 0.26% Upper 36.5%

Extinguishing Media: Use National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Class B extinguishers (carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or universal aqueous film forming foam) designed to extinguish NFPA Class 18 flammable material fires.

Fire Fighting Procedures: Full emergency equipment with self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing should be worn by firefighters. Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent pressure build-up and possible auto-ignition or explosion when exposed to extreme heat.

Special Fire and Explosion Hazards: Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground or may be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, motors, static discharge, or other ignition sources at distant locations from material handling point. Hazardous Decomposition Products: Decomposition may yield carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and various hydrocarbons. Hazardous polymerization can occur, avoid heat, open flame. (Metal portion may yield hydrogen and noxious copper and zinc compounds).

Section V - Health Hazards
Target Organs: Respiratory system, nasal septum, skin, eyes, gastrointestinal, kidneys, liver, cardiovascular system.
Primary Entry Routes: Inhalation, ingestion, skin, or eye contact.
Health Effects: Vapors and metal matrix can cause pain, tearing, reddening, swelling, blurred vision and itching of the eyes and mucous membranes. Skin contact may cause dry, defatted and cracked skin. May cause dermatitis. Polishing the metal composite may cause skin and mucous membrane irritation from metal dust being formed. Harmful if swallowed, can cause irritation in the mouth and stomach, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Deliberate inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal.
First Aid: Eyes: flush with water after removing glasses and contact lenses.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing, launder before reuse and flush exposed skin with water. Inhaled: Move to fresh air and maintain respiration.
Swallowed: Rinse mouth with water, drink a glass of milk or water. Vomiting may need to be induced, but only on the advice of medical personnel.

Section V1-Spill or Leak Procedure Spill/Leak
Procedure: Stop leak if no risk is involved. Stay upwind, remove any spark source, flames and hot surfaces from hazard area. Provide maximum ventilation. Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory, skin and eye protection should be permitted in the area. Using non-sparking tools pick up the spilled material with inert materials such as Vermiculite, sand and place in containers that meet criterion of flammability. The material disposed of in this uncured state needs to be handled as hazardous waste.

Section VII - Special Protection Information
Goggles: Safety goggles with side shields if needed.
Gloves: Required to protect the skin from sensitivity reactions.
Respirator: Wear an approved respirator when ever fumes are present.
Workplace Considerations: Eye-wash fountain, soap and water wash station.
Ventilation: Sufficient ventilation, in volume and pattern, should be provided to keep air contamination below current applicable OSHA permissible limits.
