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 passing a
size selector with the following characteristics.

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 colored paste with a musty odor. CAUTION! May cause eye, skin, nose, throat and respiratory
tract irritation.
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: 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 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, Skin Absorption, 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 not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately.
First Aid - Ingestion: Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. Do not induce vomiting.
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: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam
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
Handling: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Avoid excessive heat and 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.
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. If concentrations exceed the exposure limits
Page 4 of 7
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. 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.
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.
