EFFECTS OF SINGLE (ACUTE) OVEREXPOSURE: SWALLOWING -- No evidence of adverse effects from available information. SKIN ABSORPTION -- No evidence of adverse effects from available information. INHALATION -- May cause irritation of the nose and throat, accompanied by cough and chest discomfort. SKIN CONTACT -- May cause irritation seen as local redness and/or burns. EYE CONTACT -- May cause irritation seen as excess redness of the conjunctiva and/or burns. / EFFECTS OF REPEATED (CHRONIC) OVEREXPOSURE: Prolonged inhalation may cause lung damage. OTHER EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: None currently known. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY OVEREXPOSURE: Breathing of dust may aggravate asthma and inflammatory or fibrotic pulmonary disease. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: SWALLOWING -- If ingested in large quantities, then drink 2 glasses of water. Induce vomiting if the patient is conscious. SKIN CONTACT -- Wash the contacted area with soap and water. INHALATION -- Remove the person to fresh air. EYE CONTACT -- Immediately flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: This product is a desiccant and generates heat as it adsorbs water. The used product can contain material of a hazardous nature. Identify that material and treat accordingly.

Use media appropriate for surrounding fire. SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Depends on the use of the material. Used material may contain products of a hazardous nature. The user of this product must identify the hazards of the retained material and inform the fire fighters of these hazards. UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: In their fresh unused state, molecular sieves are not flammable. When exposed to water, however, they can get quite hot. When first wetted they can heat to the boiling point of water. Flooding will reduce the temperature to safe limits. STABILITY UNSTABLE STABLE X CONDITIONS TO AVOID: The addition of moisture (water) without flooding can cause rise in temperature from heat of adsorption and contact with skin might result in burns. INCOMPATIBILITY (materials to avoid): Sudden contact with high concentrations of chemicals having high heats of adsorption such as olefins, HCI, etc. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:. Hydrocarbons and other materials that contact the molecular sieve during normal use can be retained on the sieve. It is reasonable to expect that decomposition products will come from these retained materials of use. The molecular sieve itself does not readily decompose unless subjected to extreme temperature or chemical conditions. If such decomposition did occur the products would include the mix of oxides listed in Section II. HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION May Occur Will not Occur CONDITIONS TO AVOID: None currently known. X STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Sweep the spill area. Collect and place the spilled material in a waste disposal container. Avoid raising dust. WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Discard any product (including any retained materials of use), disposable container or liner in an environmentally acceptable manner, in full compliance with Federal, State and local regulations. $AL 0936?

LOCAL EXHAUST -- Local exhaust ventilation is recommended for operations where the permissible exposure limit might be exceeded. VENTILATION MECHANICAL (general) -- Not Applicable. See Local Exhaust. SPECIAL -- Not Applicable. See Local Exhaust. OTHER -- Not Applicable. See Local Exhaust. PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Use gloves to avoid PROLONGED skin contact. EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses or goggles selected as per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.133. OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Select in accordance with OSHA 1910.132 and 1910.133.

Request a copy from your UOP representative. Under the TSCA rules for chemical mixtures and naturally occurring substances, the EPA defines this product to be a statuatory mix. therefore, only its oomponent oxides or metals shown in Section II of this MSDS are in the inventory. The human and the environmental hazards are, however, not the summation of the hazards of the components because the components do not separate from the product (see Section VI of this MSDS). The hazards discussed in this MSDS are based on the product as a whole. Superfund Amendments and Reauthortzatlon Act of 1986 (SARA) Title lit requires emergency planning based on Threshold Planning Quantities (TPQ's) and release reporting based on Reportable Quantities (RQ's) in 40 CFR 355 (used lor SARA 302. 304, 311 and 312). Components present in this product at a level which could require reporting under the statute are: ***`NONE"** Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA) Title 111 requires submission of annual reports of release of toxic chemicals that appear in 40 CFR 372 (for SARA 313). This information must be included in ail MSDSs that are copied and distributed for this material. Components present in this product at a levei which could require reporting under the statute are: aluminum oxide. O.O.T.: Hazard Class Not a corrosive, flammable, irritant, or explosive material. Not a Class B poison by skin contact or acute inhalation. PROPOSITION 65: This product contains no levels of fisted substances, which the State of CaJifomia has found to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, which would require a warning under the statute. This product is not classified as a controlled product under Canada's Federal Hazardous Product fct (WHMtS). The opinions expressed herein are those of qualified experts within UOP.
