There are no unusual hazards. During processing the film can pick up a strong static charge. Avoid discharge into dust or solvent laden air as a flash fire or explosion may result HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS Complete combustion gives carbon dioxide and water. Incomplete combustion gives, in addition, carbon monoxide, organic acids, aldehydes, and alcohols. SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS Use self-contained breathing apparatus if exposed to fumes. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Water, carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical. HAZARDOUS REACTIVITY STABILITY AT ROOM TEMPERATURE Stable. MATERIALS TO AVOID None are known. CONDITIONS TO AVOID Temperatures above 235C. Strong acids and bases may hydrolyze the film. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS Carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon oxidation products including organic acids, aldehydes, and alcohols. POLYMERIZATION Will not occur. HEALTH HAZARD DATA 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. SX1N No animal tests have been run. However, based on many years of manufacturing these products, no skin problems are anticipated from normal handling of the film. ., 1- EYE Mechanical irritation only. . - ` * ,' ' .i BIRD 022656 MYL001 page 3 INHALATION Not volatile as marketed. Fumes irritating to the eyes, nose, and throat may be produced at temperatures above about 235C. The exposure may result in reddening, tearing, and itching of the eyes and soreness in the nose and throat together with coughing. EMERGENCY FIRST AID If exposed to fumes from overheating or combustion, move to fresh air. Consult a physician if symptoms persist Wash skin with soap and plenty of water. Flush eyes with water. Consult a physician if symptoms persist If molten polymer contacts skin, cool rapidly with cold water. Do not attempt to peel polymer from skin. Obtain medical attention for thermal burn. CHRONIC EFFECTS None are known. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE None are known. PROTECTION INFORMATION VENTILATION Normal ventilation except at temperatures above 235C where local ventilation may be required. EYE Safety glasses recommended as part of good industrial safety practice. SKIN Gloves recommended for handling hot film. RESPIRATOR Not required. DISPOSAL SPILL, LEAK OR RELEASE Pick up film to avoid a slipping hazard. WASTE DISPOSAL Landfill is preferred. Forced draft incineration is an alternate. Disposal method must conform to federal, state, and local regulations. AQUATIC TOXICITY No data. Toxicity is predicted to be very low based on the negligible water solubility of the films. STORAGE CONDITIONS Store in a cool, dry place. Keep packages closed to prevent contamination.
