SECTION IV FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Flash Point: > 250 F
Extinguishing Media: Foam or water spray, CO2, dry chemical, water
Special Fire Fighting
Procedures: Keep drums cool with water from hose.
Unusual Fire & Explosion
Hazards: Will tend to polymerize thermally at temperatures above 400 F (200 C). Once
initiated, the reaction generates sufficient heat to continue spontaneously. Heat from
fire can generate flammable vapors. Such fires are very smoky. Closed drums can
rupture in a fire causing flame to spread, increasing risk of burns. Personal contact
with hot liquid after a fire can cause severe burns due to high temperature. Notify
authorities if liquid enters sewer or public waters.
SECTION V HEALTH HAZARDS
Summary of Acute Hazards: Slight health hazards see below for route-specific details.
ROUTE OF EXPOSURE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Page 2 of 5
Inhalation: No appropriate human or animal health effects data is known to exist.
Eye Contact: May cause minor eye irritation.
Skin Contact: May produce skin irritation.
Ingestion: No significant signs or symptoms indicative of any adverse health hazards are
expected to occur as a result of ingestion.
Summary of Chronic
Hazards: No chronic health hazards have been found to be associated with this material.
Special Health Effects: No additional medical information found.
SECTION VI REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Stable
Condition to Avoid: Keep away from excessive heat, avoid long exposure above 190 F.
Incompatibility: Incompatible with peroxides and many reactive materials.
Hazardous Decomposition
Products: Small quantities of butadiene, along with other lower molecular weight
hydrocarbons.
Hazardous Polymerization: May occur when heated above 400 F.
SECTION VII PROECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND OTHER CONTROL
MEASURES
Respiratory: No special respiratory protection equipment is recommended under anticipated
conditions of normal use with adequate ventilation.
Eye: Eye protection such as chemical splash goggles and/or face shield is
recommended when possibility exists for eye contact due to splashing or spraying
liquid, airborne particles, or vapor. Contact lenses should not be worn.
Skin: Depending on the conditions of use, gloves, apron, boots, head and face
protection is recommended. Equipment should be cleaned thoroughly after each
use.
Engineering Controls: No special ventilation is recommended under anticipated conditions of normal use
beyond that needed for normal comfort control.
Other Hygienic and
Work Practices: Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking,
smoking, or using toilet facilities. Promptly remove soiled clothing/wash
thoroughly before reuse. Shower after work using plenty of soap and water. No
special work practices are needed beyond the above recommended actions under
anticipated condition of normal use.
SECTION VIII OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS
No established standards
SECTION IX EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID
Page 3 of 5
Inhalation: Not expected to present a significant inhalation hazard under anticipated
conditions of normal use.
Eye Contact: In case of eye contact, immediately rinse with clean water for 20-30 minutes.
Retract eyelids often. Obtain emergency medical attention if pain, blinking, tears
or redness persists.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing as needed. Wash skin thoroughly with mild
soap/water. Flush with lukewarm water for 15 minutes. Wipe off resin with dry or
oily rag. Baby oil will remove stickiness, as will waterless cleaner.
Ingestion: Not expected to present a significant ingestion hazard under anticipated
conditions of
normal use.
Emergency Medical
Treatment Procedures: After adequate first aid, no further treatment is required unless symptoms
reappear. Treat symptomatically.
SECTION X SPILL AND DISPOSAL
Precautions if Material is
Spilled or Released: Stop release. Prevent flow to sewers/public waters. Restrict water use for
cleanup. Slippery walking/spread granular cover. Impound/recover large land
spill. Soak up small spill with inert solids. Use suitable disposal containers. On
water, material may float or sink, may biodegrade. Contain/minimize
dispersion/collect. Disperse residue to reduce aquatic harm. Report per Reg.
Requirements.
Waste Disposal Methods: Use registered transporters. May be incinerated for energy recovery. Follow all
local, state and Federal regulations when disposing.
SECTION XI COMPONENTS
(This may not be a complete list of components.)
CAS # COMPOSITION AMT #
Polybutadiene: 9003-17-2 100%
SECTION XII ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS
Handling, Storage & Decon-
tamination Procedures: Liquid material is slippery remove small leaks/spills from walking surface with
solid absorbents. Use caution to avoid falls causing serious injury. Store away
from heat, sparks, open flames and strong oxidizing agents. Avoid overheating
which may adversely affect quality or overpressure container(s). Follow standard
plant decontamination operations.

General Comments: Some of the information presented and conclusions drawn herein are from
sources other than direct test data on the product itself. Do not use electrical
drum heaters without reliable upper temperature control. If heated too hot (above
400 F), a run away polymerization may occur. Steam drum heaters are
recommended.
