4. First Aid Measures

I Inhalation: No specific treatment is necessary.
Ingestion: No specific treatment is necessary.
Skin Contact: No specific treatment is necessary.
Eye Contact: No specific treatment is necessary.
Note to Physician: Treat symptomatically.

5. Fire Fighting Measures

Flammable Properties: Not flammable(PTFE complies with U.L.94V-0)
Extinguishing Media: Use that which is appropriate for the surrounding fire.
Fire Fighting Procedure: Persons exposed to thermal decomposition products of this material
should wear self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective equipment, and also gloves made of
chloroprene rubber.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Outer PTFE skin is non-flammable in air and will not

propagate flame. However under high temperature they can yield toxic particles, fumes, and gases.
In case of fire, escape to the windward.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Clean-up Procedures: Not applied.
Personal Precautions: Not applied.

7. Handling and Storage

Handling: Keep away from heat and sources of ignition.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry area away from heat and sources of ignition.

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Airborne Exposure Limits: See section 3 Composition/Information on Ingredients
Engineering Controls: For normal use special control is not required. When used above 260C,
toxic fumes will be produced from thermal degradation and/or decomposition of fluorocarbon
polymers and therefore proper ventilation equipment shall be installed and used.
Personal Protective Equipment:
Eye/Face Protection: Not normally required.
Skin Protection: Not normally required.
Respiratory Protection (Specify Type): Not normally required.

9. Physical and Chemical Properties

Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.

11. Toxicological Information

Acute Inhalation Effects: No hazard in normal industrial use.
Eye Effects: No hazard in normal industrial use.
Skin Effects: No hazard in normal industrial use.
Chronic Effects: No hazard in normal industrial use.
Special Hazard Information: Unheated fluorocarbon polymer product is inert, and there are no
known instances of health hazard, when handling the unheated product. When heated at high
temperature, it will thermally degrade, decompose, and produce toxic fumes. Inhalation of such
fumes will cause “Polymer Fume Fever”, which has symptoms very similar to influenza and can
include headache, cough, fever, chills, chest discomfort. The symptoms do not occur until several
hours after exposure and may pass within 36 to 48 hours, even in absence of treatment.

12. Ecological Information
