Ingestion of product may produce mild gastrointestinal disturbances.
Ingestion
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Immediately flush eyes with flooding amounts of cool, low pressure water for at least 15 minutes. If
Eye Contact
irritation persists, get medical attention. If hot/molten product contacts eye, flush with water for at least
15 minutes and seek medical attention immediately.
In case of skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water. If irritation develops or persists, seek
Skin Contact
medical attention. If hot product contacts skin, cool under running water and seek medical attention.
Do not attempt to remove the hot, molten or cooled product from the skin.
Move person to non-contaminated air. If affected person is not breathing, apply artificial respiration.
Inhalation
Seek medical attention.
If swallowed, contact a physician or poison control center immediately. DO NOT induce vomiting

Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. In case of ingestion, the decision of
Notes to Physician
whether or not to induce vomiting should be made by the attending physician. If burn is present, treat
as any thermal burn. Removing adhered product from burned skin may compromise the skin integrity
and result in infection and/or more severe scarring.
***If victims of chemical over-exposure are taken for medical attention, give a copy of the label or MSDS to the physician/health

spilled material. Avoid inhalation of fumes from molten product.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Avoid eye and skin contact. Avoid breathing dusts from this material. Avoid breathing fumes if product
Handling
is used at high temperatures. Maintain good housekeeping to prevent dust accumulation. Flaked or
crushed material may cause a dust problem. If product is in dust form, it is classified as a dust
explosion hazard class II. Handling of product in dust form should be in accordance with NFPA. If
handling with flammable or combustible materials, the explosion hazard may increase. Avoid ignition
sources such as sparks and flame. In addition, when emptying bags where flammable vapors may be
present, blanket vessel with inert gas; assure proper grounding (NFPA 69 - Explosion Prevention
Systems; NFPA 70 - National Electric Code; NFPA 77 - Recommended Practices on Static Electricity;
NFPA 654 - Standard for the Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions in the Chemical, Dye,
Pharmaceutical, and Plastics Industry), and pour material slowly into conductive grounded chutes. An
explanation of dust explosions is available in Technical Bulletin #1. Please contact customer service to
request a copy. Do not reheat product packaged in light metal containers. The light metal containers
will not safely support the movement or transfer of the product in a hot, molten form. Do not chisel
drums in areas where flammable liquids are stored or used. Wash thoroughly after handling. Never
eat, drink, or smoke in work areas. Practice good personal hygiene after using this material, especially
before eating, drinking, smoking, using the toilet or applying cosmetics.

Store at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. Guard against dust accumulation of this
Storage
material. Flaked or crushed product may be prone to oxidation, therefore control inventory - use oldest
material first. Suggest stainless steel construction for bulk storage.
Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Provide local exhaust and general ventilation systems to maintain airborne concentrations below
Engineering Controls
OSHA, ACGIH, and manufacturer recommended exposure limits. Local exhaust ventilation is preferred
because it prevents contaminant dispersion into work areas by controlling it at its source. Local
exhaust ventilation is recommended when generating excessive levels of airborne dust or vapors from
handling or thermal processing. Use electrically grounded, explosion-proof equipment for ventilation or
any handling of this product.
Personal Protection
Wear chemical goggles and face shield if handling molten material. Ensure compliance with OSHA's
Eye/Face:
personal protective equipment (PPE) standard for eye and face protection, 29 CFR 1910.133.
Use impervious gloves. Work clothing sufficient to prevent all skin contact should be worn, such as
Skin:
coveralls and long sleeves. For heated/molten product, use any type thermal insulating gloves and
other clothing as necessary to protect from thermal burns. Ensure compliance with OSHA's personal
protective equipment (PPE) standard, 29 CFR 1910.132 (general) and 138 (hand protection).
Respirators should be selected by and used under the direction of a trained health and safety
Respiratory:
professional following requirements found in OSHA's respirator standard (29 CFR 1910.134) and
ANSI's standard for respiratory protection (Z88.2-1992). A written respiratory protection program,
including provisions for medical certification, training, fit testing, exposure assessments, maintenance,
inspection, cleaning, and convenient, sanitary storage, must be implemented.
DUST/MIST: If concentrations are below the TLV and/or PEL, a NIOSH-approved disposable dust/mist
respirator may be used for personal comfort. For concentrations above the TLV and/or PEL but less
than 10 times these limits, a NIOSH-approved half-facepiece respirator equipped with dust-mist
cartridges may be used. For concentrations greater than 10 times the TLV and/or PEL, consult the
NIOSH respirator decision logic found in Publication No. 87-116 or ANSI Z88.2-1992. Note: ANSI
Z88.2-1992 requires the use of a HEPA filter if the particle size distribution of the contaminant is
unknown. Warning! Air-purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
For molten/heated product:
GAS/VAPOR: For concentrations above the TLV and/or PEL but less than 10 times these limits, a
NIOSH-approved half-face piece respirator equipped with appropriate chemical cartridges may be
used. For concentrations greater than 10 times the TLV and/or PEL, consult the NIOSH respirator
decision logic found in Publicaton No. 87-116 or ANSI Z88.2-1992. Warning! Air-purifying respirators
do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Use good industrial hygiene practices in handling this material. Eye wash fountains and emergency
General:
showers are recommended. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
Observe exposure limits for Particulates (NOC):
ACGIH TLV TWA: 10 mg/m3 Total dust; ACGIH TLV TWA: 3 mg/m3 Respirable dust;
OSHA PEL TWA: 15 mg/m3 Total dust; OSHA PEL TWA: 5 mg/m3 Respirable dust.
Xylene is typically present at a residual level of < 200ppm. Observe exposure limits for xylene:
ACGIH TLV TWA: 100 ppm;
OSHA PEL TWA: 100 ppm;
OSHA STEL: 150 ppm.
