Standard must be consulted for specific requirements. The product identity on this page meets the OSHA definition of an article and is exempt from the Hazard Communication Standard as to all normally careful uses. Some potential may exist for exposure to dust. The ingredients in these products are resin-bonded and hazards normally associated with contact to pure dusts of the listed ingredients should not be significant. Abex has listed all of the essential ingredients present in a series of products of this general description. All products identified on this MSDS contain asbestos but will not contain all of the other materials shown. The recommended exposure limits are those for the most hazardous substance in a class of substances. Exact formulation is considered proprietary and confidential. Precise product information will not be disclosed, other than to a health professional in accordance with the regulations, without an approved Secrecy Agreement. The information herein is believed to be accurate, however, Abex makes no representation or warranty as to its accuracy.

Route(sl of Entry: SECTION VI - Health Hazard Data Inhalation? yeB Skin? yM Ingestion? yM Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic) Some persons may be sensitive to cashew resins and develop dermatitis-type problems. Dust of asbestos, silica, talc, graphite, carbon black, and coal can produce pneumoconiosis and other lung damage. Metal dusts can be Irritdhts of the eyes and upper respiratory system. There Is little evidence of chronic industrial poisoning from iron, aluminum, and zinc dusts. Copper may cause keratlnlzation and discoloring of the skin. Chronic Intoxication from copper is rare and only In persons with Wilson's Disease. Zinc and copper can produce metal fume fever, but Is generally associated with exposures to freshly generated fume of those alloys (molten state). Carcinogenicity: Asbestos NTP? Yes IARC Monographs? Yes OSHA Regulated? No SignB and Symptoms of Exposure Cashew Resins -- skin eruptions similar In appearance to poison Ivy. Pneumoconiosis -- coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, impaired pulmonary function. Copper may produce metallic taste In mouth and nausea. Small amounts of ingested copper Induces vomiting. Dusts in eye may cause irritation. Gastrointestinal disturbances possible from ingestion. Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure Copper exposure and Wilson's Disease Emergency and First Aid Procedures Should not be necessary from the handling of this product.

Measures as outlined In Section VIII should be followed if this occurs. ' Waste Disposal Method Asbestos: Per 40 CFR, Part 61, 29 CFR, Part 1910.1001. Other Hazardous Ingredients: Per 40 CFR, Part 261, 262 and applicable State and Local regulations. Other Precautions Pre-employment screening for allergies and histories of skin sensitivities may be beneficial in determining persons sensitive to cashew materials. SECTION VIII - Control Measures Respiratory Protection ( Specify Type) ^lOSH approved forpneumoconiosis - fibrosis producing dusts and dustswithTLV not lass than 0.05 mg/M^. Ven"u,lon Local Exhaust For dust exposures exceeding TLV. ' Mechanical (General) Nol recommended for dust exposures. Special NK ' ' ' other Barrier creams for persons with skin sensitive to cashew resins. Protective Cloves Recommended for persons with skin sensitive-to cashew resins. Eye Protection Should not be needed for normal handling of product. Eye protection Is good practice where dust Is propelled by grinding or drilling activities. Other Protective Clothing or Equipment Long sleeved shirts or other protective clothing may be beneficial to prevent skin contact of persons sensitive to cashew resins. Work/Hygienic Practices "' Employees should be properly instructed In the use of control measures as indicated above when there is a need for it. If dust from this product is produced, unnecessary exposures should.be avoided by using a vacuum In place of dry brooming. Use wet method of cleaning for other surfaces. Proper and adequate personal hygiene should be practiced by exposed workers. NA - Not Available NK - Not Known Warner SBC-23-000043 Form #1
