Exposure Notes:
14808-60-7 The 2002 ACGIH Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Substances and Physical Agents
lists the median Respirable Particulate Mass (RPM) point for crystalline silica at 4.0 microns in terms of
the particle's aerodynamic diameter.
The TLVs for crystalline silica represent the respirable fraction.
OSHA PEL TWA for Quartz is calculated using the following formula: 10 mg/m3/(% SiO2 + 2). Both
concentration and percent quartz for the application of this limit are to be determined from the fraction

Important: Listed Permissible Exposure Levels (PEL) are from the U.S. Dept. of Labor OSHA Final Rule Limits (CFR 29 1910.1000); these limits
may vary between states.
Note: An employee's skin exposure to substances having a "YES" in the "SKIN" column in the table above shall be prevented or reduced to the
extent necessary under the circumstances through the use of gloves, coveralls, goggles or other appropriate personal protective equipment,
engineering controls or work practices
Section 3 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: A white to off-white paste product with a very slight ammonia odor. CAUTION! May
cause eye, skin, nose, throat and respiratory tract irritation. This product contains ethylene glycol.
Refer to other MSDS sections for other detailed information.
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: May cause skin irritation. May cause dry skin.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Inhalation may cause irritation to the respiratory tract (nose, mouth,
mucous membranes). Inhalation of dust may cause lung damage or other adverse pulmonary and respiratory
effects.
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards:
Ethylene Glycol may cause kidney and liver damage upon prolonged and repeated overexposures. Studies have
shown that repeated inhalation of ethylene glycol has produced adverse cardiovascular changes in laboratory
animals. Ethylene glycol has been shown to cause birth defects in laboratory animals.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has determined that crystalline silica in the form of
quartz or cristobalite that is inhaled from occupational sources is carcinogenic to humans (Group 1- carcinogenic
to humans). Refer to IARC Monograph 68, Silica, Some Silicates and Organic Fibres (published in June 1997) in
conjunction with the use of these materials. The National Toxicology Program (NTP) classifies respirable
crystalline silica as "known to be a human carcinogen". Refer to the 9th Report on Carcinogens (2000). The
American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) classifies crystalline silica, quartz, as a
suspected human carcinogen (Group A2).
Breathing dust containing respirable crystalline silica may not cause noticeable injury or illness even though
permanent lung damage may be occurring. Inhalation of dust may have the following serious chronic health
effects: Excessive inhalation of respirable dust can cause pneumoconiosis, a respiratory disease, which can
result in delayed, progressive, disabling and sometimes fatal lung injury. Symptoms include cough, shortness of
breath, wheezing, non-specific chest illness and reduced pulmonary function. Smoking exacerbates this disease.
Individuals with pneumoconiosis are predisposed to develop tuberculosis. There is some evidence that
breathing respirable crystalline silica or the disease silicosis is associated with an increased incidence of
Page 3 of 7
significant disease endpoints such as scleroderma (an immune system disorder manifested by fibrosis of the
lungs, skin and other internal organs) and kidney disease.
This product contains vinyl acetate which is classified as a class 2B carcinogen by IARC. Vinyl acetate was found
to cause cancer in the respiratory tract of laboratory animals. There is no evidence that vinyl acetate causes
cancer in humans. The IARC published a monograph on vinyl acetate (1995). In this monograph, IARC indicates
"there is inadequate evidence in humans for carcinogenicity of vinyl acetate. There is limited evidence in
experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of vinyl acetate." Normally, this lack of conclusive evidence would
place a substance in the IARC 3 classification (not classified as a human carcinogen). However, because vinyl
acetate is metabolized to acetaldehyde, which has an IARC 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans) classification, it
also has been listed under Category 2B.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Inhalation
Medical Conditions which May be Aggravated by Exposure: If dry sanded, asthma and asthma-like conditions
may worsen from prolonged or repeated exposure to dust.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
First Aid - Eye Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Get medical attention immediately.
First Aid - Skin Contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.
First Aid - Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If
continued breathing difficulty is experienced, get medical attention immediately.
First Aid - Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately.
Note to Physician: None.
COMMENTS: Call Medical Emergency at 1-800-327-3874 if any irritation or complication arises from any of the
above routes of entry.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point, F: greater than 200 Lower Explosive Limit, %: Not Established
Method: ( Seta Closed Cup) Upper Explosive Limit, %: Not Established
Extinguishing Media: Alcohol, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: None known.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Cool fire -exposed containers using water spray.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Wear proper protective equipment as specified in
Section 8. Scrape up dried material and place into containers.
Section 7 - Handling And Storage
Page 4 of 7
Handling: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash thoroughly after
handling. Do not breathe dust. While dry sanding, use of a NIOSH-approved dust mask is recommended.
Removal of this product after use will result in the generation of Dust. If dry-sanded, exposure to dust may result
in the build-up of material in eyes, ears, nose, and mouth which may cause irritation. Avoid excessive heat and
handling.
Storage: Store away from caustics and oxidizers. Do not store at temperatures above 120 degrees F. Keep
tightly closed. Avoid excessive heat and freezing.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Precautionary Measures: Please refer to other sections and subsections of this MSDS.
Engineering Controls: Local ventilation of emission sources may be necessary to maintain ambient
concentrations below recommended exposure limits. Wet sanding is recommended to avoid generation of dust.
Prevent build-up of dust and vapors by opening windows and doors or use other means to ensure fresh air entry
during application, drying and sanding.
Respiratory Protection: A respiratory protection program that meets the OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2
requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. Use an approved
NIOSH/OSHA respirator if dry sanded.
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has recommended that the permissible exposure
limit be changed to 50 micrograms respirable free silica per cubic meter of air (0.05 mg/m3) as determined by a
full shift sample up to 10-hour work shift. If concentrations exceed the exposure limits specified, use of a NIOSH-
approved supplied air respirator is recommended. Where the protection factor is exceeded, use of a Self
Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) may be necessary.
Skin Protection: Wear gloves with repeated or prolonged use.
Eye Protection: Safety glasses with side-shields.
Other protective equipment: Not required under normal use.
Hygienic Practices: Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
