SECTION 2 : HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
|
Catalog No.: (N/A)
|
|
Emergency Overview:
|
Hazardous according to criteria of Worksafe Australia
|
|
Applies to All Ingredients:
|
|
Potential Health Effects:
|
Eyes: severe irritation; tearing skin, discoloration: drying; breathing: irritation, dizziness, unconsciousness (for solvent).
For isocyanates: coughing, irritation of mucous membranes and respiratory tract.
SKIN EFFECTS: Slight to moderate irritation; skin sensitizer in guinea pigs. No conclusive evidence has been developed to indicate that Hardnose Paints are carcinogenic, teratogenic or that it causes reproductive effects in animals or humans. Active resin in Hardnose Paints has been reported by NIOSH to be mutagenic to Salmonella Typhimurium bacteria in the presence of a mammalian liver activation system. There is not full agreement in the scientific community on the significance of these Ames test results and their relationship to human safety in assessing the risk of cancer in man.
|
|
Eye Contact:
|
HUMAN EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
Liquid, vapors, or aerosols are irritating to the eyes and can cause lachrymation (tearing effect). Corneal damage can occur; however, indications are that the damage is reversible and does not result in permanent injury.
|
|
Skin Contact:
|
HUMAN EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
Hardnose Paint reacts with skin protein and tissue moisture and can cause localized irritation as well as discoloration. Prolonged contact could produce reddening, swelling, or blistering and, in some individuals, skin sensitization resulting in dermatitis.
|
|
Inhalation:
|
HUMAN EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
Inhalation of Hardnose Paint vapors in concentrations above 0.02 ppm can produce irritation of the mucous membranes in the respiratory tract, running nose, sore throat, productive cough and a reduction of lung function. Extensive exposures to concentrations well above the TLV could lead to bronchitis, bronchial spasm and pulmonary edema. These effects are usually reversible. However, due to low volatility, high exposures are not anticipated except if the material is overheated or sprayed as an aerosol into the air. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis has also been reported. Another type of response is hyperreactivity or hypersensitization. Persons with a preexisting unspecific bronchial hyperreactivity or persons with a specific isocyanate hypersensitivity (as a result of previous repeated overexposure or a single large dosage) will respond to small isocyanate concentrations at levels well below the TLV of 0.02 ppm. Symptoms could be immediate or delayed and include chest tightness, respiratory distress or asthmatic attack.
|
|
Ingestion:
|
HUMAN EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
Ingestion could result in irritation and some corrosive action in the mouth, stomach tissue and digestive tract. However, it is not considered a common occupational route of exposure.
|
| |
THRESHOLD LIMIT VALUE:
For isocyanates: 0.02 ppm
For solvent: 200 ppm |
|
|
First Aid
|
|
Eye Contact:
|
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes occasionally lifting eyelids. Get medical attention, if irritation or symptoms of overexposure persists.
|
|
Skin Contact:
|
Immediately wash skin with plenty of soap and water for 15 to 20 minutes, while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly before re-use.
|
|
Inhalation:
|
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel. Seek immediate medical attention if necessary. Asthmatic-type symptoms may develop and may be immediate or delayed up to several hours. Treatment is essentially symptomatic.
|
|
Ingestion:
|
If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.Give 250 ml of milk or water to drink. Consult physician.

SECTION 3 : PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
|
Catalog No.: (N/A)
|
|
Engineering Controls / Personal Protection / Flammability
|
|
Engineering Controls:
|
Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
|
|
Ventilation System:
|
Ventilation as required to maintain air concentrations below TLV's. If material is spray-applied, ventilation should be provided and air supplied respirators worn. Exhaust air may need to be cleaned by scrubbers or filters to reduce environmental contamination.
|
|
Personal Protective Equipment
Routine Handling:
|
SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION:
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator.
EYE PROTECTION: Goggles or face mask.
VENTILATION: Use in well-ventilated areas only. Have adequate general exhaust.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Solvent protective gloves.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Self-contained breathing apparatus if threshold limit is exceeded.
|
|
Skin Protection Description:
|
Cover as much of the exposed skin area as possible with appropriate clothing. If skin creams are used, keep the area covered to a minimum.
|
|
Hand Protection Description:
|
Wear appropriate protective gloves. Consult glove manufacturer's data for permeability data.
|
|
Eye/Face Protection:
|
Wear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR 1910.133, OSHA eye and face protection regulation, or the European standard EN 166. Contact lenses should not be worn.
|
|
Respiratory Protection:
|
A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister approved for use in isocyanate containing environments may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. In spray applications you must protect against exposure to both vapor and spray mist. An air-supplied respirator is strongly recommended for spray application. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
|
|
Other Protective:
|
Eyewash and deluge shower should be available.
