SECTION IV: FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, keeping the eyelids open.
Get medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: In case of contact, immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water. Wash contaminated clothing before re-
use and destroy contaminated shoes.
INHALATION: If inhaled, remove to fresh air, If not breathing, gibe artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is
difficult, qualified personnel may administer oxygen. Get medical attention.
INGESTION: Ingestion of this material is unlikely. If swallowed, get medical attention immediately. Do not induce vomiting.
SECTION V: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASH POINT/METHOD OF DETERMINATION: Not determined
MEANS OF EXTINCTION: Use water-spray, foam, dry chemical or CO2 to extinguish fires. Use water to keep containers cool.
SPECIAL FIRE HAZARDS: Avoid exposure through use of a self-contained, positive-pressure breathing apparatus.
SECTION VI: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PROCEDURES IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL RELEASE OF LEAKAGE: Ventilate area. Avoid breathing vapor. Use self-
contained breathing apparatus or supplied air for large spills or confined areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing (See Section
VIII). contain spill if possible. Absorb of wipe up with suitable material, put into a container and dispose of properly (See Section
XIII). Prevent entry into sewers and waterways.
SECTION VII: HANDLING AND STORAGE
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Store in a cool, dry place with adequate ventilation. Store in
closed containers. Keep sealed from dirt and moisture. Keep away from open flames and high temperatures.
MSDS NUMBER: TYFO-FCA00-01 DATE: Nov. 13,1997 PAGE 3 OF 5
SECTION VIII: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE/FACE PROTECTION: Avoid eye and skin contact. Wear chemical type goggles and a faceshield.
SKIN PROTECTION: Protective clothing such as uniforms, coveralls or lab coats must be worn. Launder or dry-clean when coiled.
Gloves resistant to chemicals are required.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Mot ordinarily required. If vapor or mist is generated, use a NIOSH approved organic vapor
respirator. If sufficient dust is generated during machining of the cured product, use a NIOSH approved dust respirator.
VENTILATION: Local exhaust ventilation recommended sufficient to control the vapor, mist or dust being generated. If exhaust
ventilation is not available or is inadequate, use a NIOSH approved respirator, as appropriate.
GENERAL HYGIENE RECOMMENDATIONS: Before eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities, wash face and hands
thoroughly with soap and water. If significant amounts of this material gets on work clothes, the employee should shower immediately
and the clothing should be laundered before it is warn again.

SECTION X: STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
STABILITY: Stable under normal handling and storage conditions.
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS: Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents, strong Lewis or mineral acids and strong mineral
and organic bases especially primary and secondary aliphatic amines.
PRODUCTS EVOLVED FROM HEAT OF COMBUSTION OR DECOMPOSITION: The products of combustion and
decomposition depend on other materials present in the fire and the actual conditions of the fire. Burning will produce carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide, aldehydes, phenolics, water and other unidentified gases and vapors which may be toxic. Avoid inhalation.
HAZARDOUS POYMERIZATIONS: Will not occur under normal conditions of use. When mixed with Component B of a resin
system and /or rapid heating of the product in bulk may produce an uncontrolled exothermic reaction which may char and decompose
the resin system, generating unidentified gases and vapors which may be toxic. Avoid inhalation.
