OTHER PHYSICAL HAZARDS During processing, the film can pick up a strong static charge. Avoid discharge into dust or solvent-laden air, as flash fire or explosion may result. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION Before using "Mylar" Polyester Film, read the bulletin on safe handling instructions. ACUTE OR IMMEDIATE EFFECTS: ROUTES OF ENTRY AND SYMPTOMS INGESTION "Mylar" was fed to male and female rats and dogs for ninety days at the 10% level in their diet. No compound related effects were seen. "Mylar" has low ingestion toxicity. SKIN No animal tests have been run. However, based on BIRD 022664 K8D8 NO. MYL002 DU PONT Material Safety Data Sheet Page (HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION - Continued) problems are anticipated from normal handling of the film. EYE Mechanical irritaion. INHALATION Not volatile as marketed. Fumes irritating to the eyes, nose, and throat may be produced at temperatures above about 235 degrees C. The exposure maiy result in reddening, tearing, and itching of the eyes, soreness in the nose and throat, and caughing. CARCINOGENICITY None of the components in this material is listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA, or ACGIH as a carcinogen.

Obtain medical treatment for thermal burn. EYE CONTACT In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Call a physician. INGESTION No specific intervention is indicated as compound is not likely to be hazardous by ingestion. Consult physician if necessary. PROTECTION INFORMATION Generally applicable control measures and precautions ; VENTILATION Normal Ventilation except at temperatures above 235 degrees C where local exhaust ventilation may be required. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT Eyo/Faca t Safety Glasses. Respirator ; Not required. Protective Gloves; Wear gloves when handling hot film. DI8P08AL INFORMATION AQUATIC TOXICITY Expected to be very low based on the negligible water solubility of these films. SPILL. LEAK. OR RELEASE No Information Available. WASTE DISPOSAL Preferred options for disposal are (l) recycling, (2) incineration with energy recovery, and (3) landfill. The high fuel value of this product makes option 2 very desirable for material that cannot be recycled. Treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal must be in accordance with applicable federal, state/provincial, and local regulations.
