place. Keep away heat and sources of ignition. Freezing will affect the physical condition
and may damage the material.

Section 8 : Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Engineering controls : General ventilation is recommended. Eyewash and safety shower stations
are recommended.
Personal protection equipment
-Respiratory protection : Respiratory protection is not normally needed since volatility and toxicity
are low. If significant dusting occurs, use NIOSH approved respirator
(ANSIZ882.1980) or equivalent.
-Hand protection : Rubber gloves.
-Eye protection : Safety glasses with side-shields. Do not wear contact lenses.
-Skin protection : Chemical resistant apron or protective suit if splashing or repeated contact
with solution is likely.
Hygiene measures : Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Handle in

Section 11 : Toxicology Information

Acute toxicity
-Not listed as a carcinogen by IARC, NTP, OSHA or ACGIN.
-Oral : LDSO Ioral/rat > 5000mg/kg
-Dermal : The result of testing on rabbits showed this material to
be non-toxic even at high dose levels.

Irritancy and corrosiveness : May be slightly irritating to skin and eyes on
prolonged exposure. No evidence of corrosiveness
Subacute, Subchronic and prolonged toxicity : No information available.
Empirical data on effects on humans : Considered non-toxic in normal use.

Section 12 : Ecological Information

Aquatic toxicity (Effect on watercourses):

From tests on a product range, toxicity to fish (96hr LC5O) when tested in pure water,< 10ppm. When
tested in water with more than 10 ppm total dissolved organic carbon, aquatic LC5O is increased by
about 100 fold. Acute effects on aquatic organisms are entirely due to the cationic charge of the
polymer, which is completely neutralized in natural water courses by irreversible adsorption onto
particles, hydrolysis and dissolved organic carbon.

Biogradability : This products are biodegradable, but their rate of degradation is relatively slow.

Section 13 : Disposal Considerations

Disposal method : Recycle if possible. if not, absorb spilled material on Inert absorbent and dispose
of solidified material accordance with federal, state, local or other applicable laws
and regulations.
