SECTION 2 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview
Off-White. Non-sag gunnable paste. May cause slight irritation to the respiratory system. Leave area to breathe
fresh air. Avoid further overexposure. If symptoms persist, get medical attention.
Acute Potential Health Effects/ Routes of Entry
Inhalation May cause slight irritation to the respiratory system.
:
Eyes Direct contact may cause moderate irritation.
:
Ingestion May cause irritation to the mouth, throat and stomach.
:
Skin May cause mild irritation.
:
Aggravated Medical Conditions
Pre-existing eye, skin, liver, kidney, and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by exposure.
Chronic Health Effects
Possible skin sensitization. As a by-product of curing up to 4% Methyl Ethyl Ketoxime (MEKO) may be released
within product. Repeated and prolonged exposure to MEKO can cause allergic skin reaction and is a potential
carcinogen (Group 2B) by IARC. It may adversely affect the blood, (methemoglobinemia and anemia).
Prolonged or repeated exposure to butyl benzyl phthalate may cause reduced body weights and adverse
effects on the liver, kidney, spleen, pancreas, and reproductive organs. Organosilane may cause liver injury
with fibrosis after repeated and prolonged overexposure. Fillers are encapsulated and not expected to be
released from product under normal conditions of use.
Target Organs: Skin, Blood, Lung, Liver, Kidney
