| SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES |
|=========================================================================|
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial
flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15
minutes. Have eyes immediately examined and tested by medical personnel.
SKIN CONTACT: For hot product, immediately immerse in or flush the
affected area with large amounts of cold water to dissipate heat. Cover
with clean cotton sheeting or gauze and get prompt medical attention. No
attempt should be made to remove material from skin or to remove
contaminated clothing as the damaged flesh can be easily torn. For cold
material: flush with water. Remove and wash contaminated clothing.
Seek medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
INHALATION: If effects occur, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention
if cough or other symptoms develop.
INGESTION: If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Get medical attention
immediately.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Treat symptomatically.

AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: No data
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:FOAM,DRY CHEMICAL,WATER FOG,CO2,ALCOHOL FOAM
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Finely divided dust in air may present
explosion hazard. Prevent dust buildup.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Treat as petroleum fire. Wear
appropriate approved protective equipment. Avoid directing water stream
directly into flame; it may cause frothing with subsequent spread of flame.
|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
|=========================================================================|
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Reclaim clean
material. Contaminated material should be swept or shoveled into
appropriate waste container and disposed of in accordance with applicable
national, regional, and local regulations.
|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE |
|=========================================================================|
HANDLING: Use only in a well ventilated area. Minimize dust generation
and accumulation. Avoid breathing vapors from heated material. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Follow good general industrial safety
practices during use and handling.
STORAGE: Do not store in direct sunlight. Keep away from direct heat and
flame.
|=========================================================================|

| SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION |
|=========================================================================|
CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE EFFECTS: *When heated to high temperatures (above 150
degrees C), this product may release formaldehyde vapors. Formaldehyde is
irritating to the skin, eyes, nose, and throat, and has been listed as a
carcinogen by IARC. Repeated or prolonged overexposure may
cause serious respiratory and/or skin sensitization. Testing in animals
has shown reproductive effects. *Repeated and prolonged inhalation of
graphite or carbon dusts may cause pulmonary fibrosis, emphysema, and
pneumoconiosis. The severity of these effects is greatly influenced by the
presence of other harmful mineral dusts, most notably crystalline silica.
*This product contains encapsulated mica and coal dust. Repeated and
prolonged occupational overexposure to mica and/or coal dust may cause
delayed lung injury which may result in pneumoconiosis and/or positive
chest x-rays. Mica and coal dust contain crystalline silicon dioxide
(quartz) which has been listed by IARC as a suspected human
carcinogen via inhalation. No exposure to free respirable dust is
anticipated, however, during normal application of this product. Refer to
respiratory protection section for further requirements. *Repeated or
prolonged overexposure to phenol via inhalation, ingestion, or skin
absorption may cause damage to the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and spleen.
Phenol is mutagenic "in-vitro." *This product contains encapsulated talc.
Talc may be released by grinding or machining of material. It should be
noted, that repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to talc has
been associated with pulmonary fibrosis and/or pneumoconiosis. These
conditions may exist with or without a decrease in lung function.
