Vapor Density (Air=l) Vapor Pressure NA NA BEL NA SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA Flash Point NA Ignition Temperature Dust cloud (estimate): 880F (470C) Flammable Limits in Air (% by Volume) Lower: 0.06 oz/ft3 Upper: Unknown Extinguishing Media Water. ABC dry chemical. Protein type air foams. Carbon dioxide may be ineffective on larger fires due to a lack of cooling capacity may result in reignition. Special Firefighting Procedure Do not use methods which may create a dust cloud (e.g. high pressure water stream). Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Personnel not having suitable respiratory protection must leave the area to prevent significant exposure to toxic combustion gases from any source. In enclosed or poorly ventilated areas, wear SCBA during cleanup inraediately after a fire as well as during the attack phase of firefighting operations. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards - Minimum concentration for explosion: 0.06 ounces/ft3 - Minimum energy for ignition: 0.15 Joules - Maximum rate of pressure rise: 6267 psi/sec. @0.2 ounces/ft3 - Maximum pressure of explosion: 90 psig @0.5 ounces/ft3 - Explosion severity: 2.5 These resins can bum and represent "severe" Explosion Severity on the U.S. Bureau of Mines scale. The resin may be ignited by static electric discharge, electrical arcs, sparks, welding torches, open flame, or other significant heat sources. Also, resin is prone to static electric buildup and discharge. To minimize dust explosion potential: - Prevent accumulation of dust (e.g., well ventilated conditions, promptly vacuuming spills, cleaning overhead horizontal surfaces, etc.) Eliminate ignition sources such as sparks or static buildup (e.g. humidification). - Bond, ground and properly vent containers, conveyors, dust control devices and other transfer equipment. Use only grounded electrically conductive transfer lines when pneumatically conveying resin. Nitrogen or other inert gas can be used to lower the oxygen content of the atmosphere in conveying equipment. - A properly engineered explosion suppression system should be considered where large amounts of resin are handled. See standards such as the National Fire Protection Association NFPA 654, "Standard for the Prevention of Dust Explosions in the Plastics Industry," NFPA 69, "Explosion Prevention Systems," NFPA 68, "Explosion Venting Protection," NFPA 77, "Static Electricity" and \other standards as the need exists. 21552016 MSDS 88187 -2- BFG15U0 SAN Resina SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA Stability Stable Hazardous Polymerization Will not occur Hazardous Combustion/Decomposition Products Dense black smoke, CO, CO2, HCN and small amounts of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Incompatibility (materials to avoid) Reacts with strong oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, permanganates and perchlorates. Depending on the amount and specific materials involved, contact can result in intense heat, boiling, flame development, explosion or toxic gas generation. SECTION VI ~ HEALTH HAZARD DATA Threshold I.im-it Value 5 mg/m3: nuisance dust (respirable fraction), OSHA. Carcinogenicity Not listed by IARC, NTP or OSHA. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure_______________________ Prolonged dust inhalation may cause aggravation of preexisting lung disorders. Chronic Health Effects Prolonged dust inhalation can cause lung irritation. Routes of Entry Inhaling dust and/or processing vapors. Eye/skin contact. Acute Health Effects Repeated/prolonged contact may cause eye or skin irritation. Processing vapors from this or other plastic materials containing residual acrylonitrile or styrene may cause irritation to eyes, skin and upper respiratory tract, nausea, headache and dizziness. Effects of Overexposure (Signs and Symptoms of Exposure) - No adverse health effects are expected during normal processing when potential exposures are eliminated by good industrial hygiene practice and well ventilated conditions. Overexposure to processing fumes or vapors may cause eye, nose and throat irritation, headache, nausea and dizziness. - Overexposure to decomposition or combustion products will cause irritation of the respiratory tract, eyes and skin. Symptoms such as coughing, tearing, and irritation should be regarded as potentially hazardous and measures taken to avoid exposure. Emergency and First Aid Procedure - Eye Contact: Treat as any foreign particulate matter. - Skin Contact: Wash skin with soap and water. No effects requiring first aid are expected. - Dust Inhalation: Remove individual to fresh air. NOTE: For any of the above, if irritation develops, see a physician. - If irritation persists from exposure to processing vapors or decomposition products, remove the affected individual(s) from the area. Call a phv=i ui. Provide protection before allowing reentry. 21552017 MSDS 88187 -3- BFG15111 SAN Resins SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND STORAGE Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled Sweep, shovel or vacuum into closed, labeled container for reuse or disposal. Use care to avoid dust generation. Do not flush into public sewer or water system. Waste Disposal Method Although these products are not defined or designated as hazardous by current provisions of the Federal (EPA) Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA, 40CFR261), recognize that in appropriate dust/air ratio, dust cloud in air represents an explosion potential. Incinerate or landfill waste in a properly permitted facility in accordance with federal, state and local regulations. Precautions to be taken in handling and storage - Avoid breathing dust. - Avoid eye contact and repeated or prolonged skin contact. - Use under well ventilated conditions. - Wash thoroughly after handling product. Always wash up before eating, smoking or using toilet facilities. - Automatic sprinkler protection of indoor storage areas is recommended. SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES Ventilation Effective general and, if necessary, local exhaust ventilation must always be provided to draw fumes or vapors away from workers to prevent routine inhalation. Ventilation must be adequate to maintain the ambient workplace atmosphere below the limits listed in Section II. Ventilation guidelines/techniques may be found in publications such as Industrial Ventilation. I9th Edition, American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, 6500 Glenway Avenue, Bldg. D-7, Cincinnati, OH 45211 ($20.00 as of November, 1988). Respiratory Protection Not normally required. If protection against dust is necessary, wear a particulate respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA. Wear an organic vapor respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA whenever exposure to fumes or vapors cannot be kept below irritating levels or if levels exceed the limits listed in Section II. Use respirator in accordance with manufacturer's use limitations and OSHA standard 1910.134 (29CFR). Protective Equipment - Eye protection suitable for keeping dust out of the eyes. - Protective gloves. - Eyewash facility. 9T02CCTZ MSGS 88187 -4- BFG15U2 SAN Resins SECTION IX - TRANSPORTATION For domestic transportation purposes, these products are not defined or designated as a hazardous material by the U.S. Department of Transportation under Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations, 1986 Edition. - DOT Proper Shipping Name: Not applicable - DOT Hazard Class: Not applicable - DOT Label: Not applicable - UN/NA Hazard No.: Not applicable - Reportable Quantity (RQ): Not applicable SECTION X - HAZARD CODES NFPA 704* Health: Flammability: Reactivity: Special: 2 4 0 None HMIS** Health: Flammability: Reactivity: Personal Protection: 0-1 4 0 B Key: 0 = insignificant; 1 = slight; 2 = moderate; 3 = high; 4 = extreme. * National Fire Protection Association rating identifies the severity of hazards of material during a fire emergency (i.e., "on fire"). ** Hazardous Materials Identification System, National Paint and Coatings Assn, rating applies to product "as packaged" (i.e., ambient temp.).

APPENDIX - STYRENE *0 6T02SCT Based upon revised definitions, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (LARC) reclassified styrene monomer from Group 3 to Group 2B (March, 1988). For hazard communication purposes under OSHA Standard 1910.1200, this reclassification requires styrene monomer to be listed as a possible carcinogen. Literature reports indicate that styrene can damage chromosomes (Clastogen). The human health implications of these Invivo/Invitro results are not known. Styrene is not teratogenic but may damage a developing fetus. MSDS 88187 3 BFG15113 SAN Resins
