OSHA Hazard Communication Standard 29 CFR 1910.1200 allows the MSDS information as to other
non-hazardous components top be utilized if they are considered proprietary, therefore, identities of
proprietary ingredients in this product are not listed here.

V. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
HEALTH EFFECTS
Swallowed
Not Investigated
Eye
Liquid, aerosols, or vapors are irritating and can cause tearing, reddening and swelling. If left untreated, corneal damage can occur
and injury is slow to heal. However, damage is usually reversible. See First Aid Measures for treatment.
Skin
Irritation
Inhaled
Vapors or mist at concentrations above the TLV can irritate (burning sensation) the mucous membranes in the respiratory tract
(nose, throat, lungs) causing runny nose, sore throat, coughing, chest discomfort, shortness of breath and reduced lung function
(breathing obstruction). Persons with a preexisting, nonspecific bronchial hyperreactivity can respond to concentrations below the
TLV with similar symptoms as well as asthma attack. Exposure well above the TLV may lead to bronchitis, bronchial spasm, and
pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs). These effects are usually reversible. Chemical or hypersensitive pneumonitis, with flu-like
symptoms (e.g. fever, chills) has also been reported. These symptoms can be delayed up to several hours after exposure.

FIRST AID
Swallowed
If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting. Give two glasses of water. Contact a doctor.
Eye
Irrigate with very generous quantities of water for 30 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Skin
Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected skin thoroughly with rubbing alcohol then soap and water. Wash contaminated
clothing thoroughly before reuse. For severe exposures, get under safety shower after removing clothing, then get medical
attention. For lesser exposures, seek medical attention if irritation develops or persists after the area is washed.
Inhaled
Move to an area free from risk of further exposure. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration as needed. Obtain medical
attention. Asthmatic-type symptoms may develop and may be immediate or delayed up to several hours. Consult physician should
this occur.
EXPOSURE CONTROL
Technical Protective Measures
Local exhaust should be used to maintain levels below the TLV whenever processed, heated or spray applied. Standard reference
sources regarding industrial ventilation (i.e., ACGIH Industrial Ventilation) should be consulted for guidance about adequate
ventilation.
Exposure Limits
Concentrations greater than the TLV can occur when product is sprayed, heated or used in a poorly ventilated area. In such cases,
or whenever concentrations exceed the TLV or are not known, respiratory protection must be worn. A supplied air respirator
(either positive pressure or continuous flow type) is required. In an emergency, a self-contained breathing apparatus may be used.
Respiratory Protection
Use standard vapor masks.
Hand Protection
Wear Suitable Gloves
Eye Protection
Wear suitable goggles
Skin Protection
Wear chemically impervious overalls. Wash all exposed skin after use.
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Swallowed
Acute Toxicity Oral LD50 鈥? The acute oral LD50 (rat) for this material is greater than 10,000 mg/kg.
Eye
Eye contact may cause corneal opacity.
Skin
The acute dermal LD50 (rabbit) is greater than 5,000 mg/kg. This product may be a skin irritant
Inhaled
An acute LC50 for this product is not available
ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Waste Disposal Method 鈥? Waste must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state, and local, environmental control
regulations. Incineration is the preferred method.
Empty Container Precautions- Empty containers must be handled with care due to product residue. Decontaminate containers prior
to disposal. Empty decontaminated containers should be crushed to prevent reuse. DO NOT HEAT OR CUT EMPTY
CONTAINERS WITH ELECTRIC OR GAS TORCH. (See Fire Fighting Measures and Stability & Reactivity). Gases may be

highly toxic.
Transportation Emergencies 鈥? Notify CHEM-CRETE immediately when this product is unintentionally released from its
container during its course of distribution, regardless of the amount released.
VI. ACCIDENT RELEASE MEASURES
ACCIDENT RELEASE AND DISPOSAL CONSIDERATION
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Avoid contact with skin, eyes, respiratory systems, and clothing. Contact local authorities for disposal.
VII. PRECAUTION FOR USE
VENTILATION
Local exhaust should be used to maintain levels below the TLV whenever processed, heated or spray applied. Standard reference
sources regarding industrial ventilation (i.e., ACGIH Industrial Ventilation) should be consulted for guidance about adequate
ventilation.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
Gloves, goggles, and boots.
FLAMMABILITY
Product is combustible liquid. Keep away from direct heat or ignition.
VIII. SAFE HANDLING INFORMATION
STORAGE AND TRANSPORTION
Storage Temperature 鈥? 64掳F (18掳C) / 86掳F (30掳C) Special Sensitivity 鈥? If container is exposed to high heat, 150掳F (83掳C) it can
be pressurized and possibly rupture. Handling/Storage Precautions 鈥? Do Not Store Near Open Flame or Strong Oxidants. Store
in tightly closed containers to prevent moisture contamination. Do not reseal containers if contamination is suspected. Avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Do not breathe aerosols, or vapors. Warning properties (irritation of the eyes, nose and throat or odor)
are not adequate to prevent chronic overexposure from inhalation. This material can produce asthmatic sensitization upon either
single inhalation exposure to a relatively high concentration or upon repeated inhalation exposures to lower concentrations.
Exposure to vapors of heated product can be extremely dangerous.
SPILLS AND DISPOSAL
Dispose according to local authority Regulations.
