Product#: 332889 Name: TALC IMP BC IMP 1820L Desc: IMP1820L.50.BG From: BRENNTAG SPECIALTIES INC. To: CONLEY CASTING SUPPLY CO Friday, June 08, 2012 M aterial Safety Data Sheet Emergency Overview: Under normal conditions of use, this product is not expected to create any unusual emergency hazard. This product is NOT flammable, NOT reactive, NOT explosive, has No flash point, and poses no special hazards in the presence of fire. Potential Health Effects Route of Exposure: Inhalation is the primary route of exposure Inhalation: Acute: Exposure to a large concentration of air-borne dust of this material may cause mechanical irritation of the mucous membranes and respiratory tract. Chronic: Repeated and prolonged exposure to large amount of talc dust might induce a mild pneumoconiosis. This is caused by lung overload exposure, a non specific particle effect, rather than a specific intrinsic fibrogenic activity of talc. Skin Contact: Acute: Direct contact may cause dryness or mild irritation if an allergic predisposition exists Chronic: Prolonged contact may cause dryness of skin or mild irritation if an allergic predisposition exists Eye Contact: Acute: Direct contact with dust may cause mechanical irritation of the eyes Chronic: Repeated exposure may cause conjunctive inflammation Ingestion: Acute: This material is considered to be harmless and inert when ingested. C hronic: Repeated ingestion of large doses of talc for 13 and 10 successive days by rabbits and mice revealed negative teratogenic and carcinogenic results. Section 4 ;: First-aid Measures Eye contact: Rinse with copious quantities of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention if irritation persists. Skin contact: No special first aid measures necessary. Inhalation: No special first aid measures. Remove to fresh air and get medical attention in case of serious respiratory problems. Ingestion: No first aid measures required. Extinguishing media: All extinguishing media can be used. Special hazards arising from the substance or m ixture: The product is not flammable, combustible or explosive. No hazardous thermal decomposition. Advice fo r fire-fighters: No specific fire-fighting protection is required. Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.

Product#: 332889 Name: TALC IMP BC IMP 1820L Desc: IMP1820L.50.BG From: BRENNTAG SPECIALTIES INC. To: CONLEY CASTING SUPPLY CO Friday, June 08, 2012 Mms r? vycsrii n M aterial Safety Data Sheet ---- Personal precautions, protective equipm ent and emergency procedures: Avoid airborne dust generation. If the generation of dust is likely, personal protective equipment should be worn in compliance with national legislation. Environmental precautions: No special requirements. Contain spillage and clean up as indicated below. Methods and material fo r containm ent and cleaning up: Dry product should be cleaned with a shovel or vacuum cleaner while wearing personal protective equipment in compliance with national legislation. Washing the floor with water is not recommended since it may cause the floor to become slippery. However, if talc is already wet, and only in this case, the floor should be thoroughly flushed with water to remove all slipperiness. Talc is not considered a hazardous waste as defined by the US EPA RCRA (40 CFR 261) regulations. Observe all applicable federal, state and local regulations when handling, storing or disposing of this substance. S c t j n Handling ;r: Precautions fo r safe handing: Avoid airborne dust generation. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where airborne dust is generated, in case of Insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory protective equipment. Handle packaged products carefully to prevent accidental bursting. If you require advice on safe handling techniques, please contact your supplier. C onditions fo r safe storage: Keep the product dry and In closed containers. filiMIfiilillSiilililiM Control parameters: Follow workplace regulatory exposure limits for all types of airborne dust (e.g. total dust, respirable dust, and respirable crystalline silica dust). In the U S., the Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) for talc containing no asbestos fibers and less than 1% crystalline silica is 2 mg/m3 respirable fraction (ACGIH) measured as an 8 hours TWA (Time Weighted Average). The OSHA exposure limit for talc Is 20 mppcf Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) TWA. For the equivalent limits in other countries, please consult a competent occupational hygienist or the local regulatory authority. Engineering controls: Minimise airborne dust generation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below specified exposure limits. If user operations generate dust, use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne particles below the exposure limit. Apply organisational measures, e.g. by isolating personnel from dusty areas. Remove and wash soiled clothing. Personal protection: Eye protection: Wear safety glasses with side-shields in circumstances where there is a risk of dust generation which could lead to mechanical irritation of the eye. Skin protection: No specific requirement. For hands, see below Hand protection: Protective gloves are not necessary but recommended for those prone to skin irritation or dryness. Respiratory protection: In case of overexposure to airborne dust concentrations, wear respiratory protective equipment that complies with the requirements of national legislation.

This is not a route of exposure relevant to workers and applies only to one specific use of talc.
