3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Potential Health Effects, Skin
Skin contact, especially if prolonged, may cause irritation, rash or chemical burn to the contacted area. Effects of exposure
may be delayed 24 to 48 hours.
Potential Health Effects, Eye
Eye contact with the liquid is expected to cause severe irritation and possibly injury to the cornea.
Potential Health Effects, Inhalation
Vapors may cause irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Potential Health Effects, Ingestion
Swallowing may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, or even internal injury.
Target Organs
Skin, eyes, respiratory tract.

Signs & Symptoms of Short-Term (Acute) Exposure
Threshold limit value (TLV): Not established. Prolonged or repeated exposures can cause sensitization. Irritation may be
delayed, so exposure can go unnoticed. Avoid all direct contact.
4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Skin
Wash affected area thoroughly with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use. If irritation develops and
persists, seek medical attention.
Eye
Flush with water for at least 15 minutes and seek a physician immediately.
Inhalation
Remove person to fresh air and call a physician if symptoms persist.
Ingestion
If appreciable quantities are ingested, seek medical attention.
5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
CO 2 or dry chemical.
Basic Fire Fighting Procedures
Use self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards
Hazardous polymerization may occur. Using streams of cooling water to avoid this, if necessary.

6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spill or Leak Procedure
Scoop up and collect excess material, using inert absorbent material. Collected material should be disposed in approved
fashion. Appropriate protective clothing, including rubber gloves and chemical splash goggles, should be worn during these
procedures.
7 HANDLING & STORAGE
Storage
Store in the dark away from excessive heat, sources of ignition, sunlight and other ultraviolet light sources. Store between
50潞 and 80潞F (10潞 and 27潞C).
Ventilation
This material should be used only with adequate ventilation. Use of local exhaust ducts, fume hoods and/or other
mechanical exhaust ventilation is recommended. Respiratory equipment is not required, unless ventilation provisions are
inadequate to meet PEL's. NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators with organic vapor cartridges and particulate prefilters are
recommended.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Eye Protection: Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
Wear chemical splash goggles. Do not wear contact lenses while handling this material.

Skin Protection: Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
Wear chemical resistant gloves. Do not use vinyl gloves. Inspect gloves frequently for cuts or holes and discard damaged
gloves. Wash hands with soap and water after handling this product. Do not clean skin with solvents; solvents might
increase skin penetration by this product, as well as being potentially toxic themselves.
Respiratory Protection: Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
Use of local exhaust ducts, fume hoods and/or other mechanical exhaust ventilation is recommended. Respiratory
equipment is not required, unless ventilation provisions are inadequate to meet PEL's. NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators
with organic vapor cartridges and particulate prefilters are recommended.
General
Effects from the UV curing process:
Heat generated by UV light sources can volatilize small amounts of monomers before the polymerization is complete.
These volatilized monomers can be irritating if ventilation is inadequate.

10 STABILITY & REACTIVITY
Stability/Incompatibility
Stable
Incompatible with: Polymerization catalysts, oxidizing agents and peroxides.
Conditions to avoid: Excessive heat, sources of ignition, sunlight and other UV light sources.
Hazardous Reactions/Decomposition Products
Burning may produce carbon monoxide. Incomplete combustion would result in the boiling off of acrylic monomers and
generation of smoke. No hazardous decomposition products are expected during normal storage and usage conditions.
Hazardous Polymerization
May occur.
Conditions to avoid: Excessive heat, sunlight and other UV light sources, polymerization catalysts, peroxides, and
oxidizing agents.
