Respirable crystalline silica (quartz) can cause silicosis, a
fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs. Silicosis may be progressive;
it many lead to disability and death.
Crystalline silica (quartz) inhaled from occupational sources is
classified as carcinogenic to humans.

7.5%
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or fog.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
UNSUAL FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to an ignition source
distant from the material handing point.
======================================================================
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
======================================================================
PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LEVEL:
SEE SECTION VIII.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
INGESTION: Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea and vomiting.
Aspiration of material into lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis which
can be fatal.
INHALATION: May cause nose or throat irritation. High concentrations
may cause acute central nervous system depression characterized by
headaches, dizziness, nausea and confusion.
EYES: May cause severe eye irritation and corneal damage.
SKIN: May cause dermatitis. May cause defatting and irritation of the
skin.
FIRST AID:
EYES: Flush with large amounts of water, lifting upper and lower lids
occasionally. Get medical attention.
SKIN: Prolonged or repeated contact can cause irritation and possible
defatting of skin.
INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting, keep person warm, quiet and get
medical attention (aspiration of this material into the lungs due to
vomiting can cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal).
INHALATION: Remove individual to fresh air and if breathing is
difficult, administer oxygen.
======================================================================
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
======================================================================
Stability: This product is stable
Hazardous Polymerization: Hazardous polymerization will not occur
INCOMPATIBILITY:
Strong oxidizing agents, strong acids and bases.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:
Fire, sparks, static electricity.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.
======================================================================
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
======================================================================
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED:
Keep spectators away. Eliminate all ignition sources (flames,
hot surfaces and sources of electrical, static or frictional
sparks). Dike and contain spill with inert material (e.g. sand,
earth). Transfer liquids to covered metal containers for
recovery or disposal, or remove with inert absorbent. Use only
non-sparking tools. Place absorbent diking materials in
covered metal containers for disposal. Prevent contamination of
sewers, streams and groundwater with spilled material or used
absorbent.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:
Dispose in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
If workplace exposure limit of product is exceeded, a NIOSH/MSHA
approved air supplied respirator must be used in absence of proper
environmental control. Engineering or administrative controls should
be implemented to reduce exposure.
VENTILATION:
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust)
ventilation to maintain exposure below PEL.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES:
Chemical resistant gloves.
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA
regulations are advised.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
To prevent repeated, prolonged skin contact, wear impervious clothing
and boots.
======================================================================
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
======================================================================
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE:
Keep container closed when not in use. Store at 60-95 degrees F and
out of the sun. Use adequate ventilation to avoid breathing vapors
when cover is removed. Ground all equipment when handling flammable
solvent-borne materials.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS:
For professional or industrial use only. Follow label instructions.
Keep out of the reach of children. Not for consumpion. No smoking.
Do not breathe fumes. Avoid contact with body. Turn off all pilot
lights, flames, stoves, heaters, electric motors, welding equipment
and other sources of ignition. Close all containers when not in use.
Empty containers must not be washed and re-used for any purpose.
Contact lens wearers take appropriate precautions. Wash hands
throughly after handling.
For spray applications, use only with approved spray equipment.
For flammable products, vapors may cause flash fire or ignite
explosively. To prevent buildup of vapors, use adequate ventilations
(e.g. open all windows and doors to achieve cross-ventilation).
Containers may be hazardous when empty. Never use welding or cutting
torch on or near container.
