SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Polyvinyl chloride as a ratio i more or 1*M lnart
at measured by oral L050. Its main hatards. if any, would ba associated
with unreacted vinyl chloride monomer (centrally extremely small amounts)
and other additives in the plastic. Pneumoconiosis has been described
from inhalation of the dust which should be avoided. Combustion products
of Polyvinyl Chloride may result In an asthma syndrome. Check OSKA VCM
Regulation 29 CFR, Title 29, Chapter XVII, Part 1910.
*
PROBABLE ROUTES OF EXPOSURE; Inhalation (of dust)
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
INGESTION;
Practically inert.
INHALATION:
Remove victim to fresh air. Get medical attention If necessary.
EYE CONTACT:
Flush with water. Do not bub. See physician if residual foreign body is suspected.
SKIN CONTACT: N/A
SECTION VII - TOXICITY DATA
OML: N/A
DERMAL: N/A
INHALATION: Mouse LC5> - 140 mg/m3/10M
CARCINOCENICITY: This material contains vinyl chloride which is a cancer
suspect agent, PVC meets ETECS criteria as an equivocal tumorigenic agent
- tumors of the lungs, thorsx or respiratory system; tumors of the skin
(rat --- oral). This material may contain trace amounta of vinyl chloride
which is a cancer-suspect agent. Polyvinyl chloride is listed by IARC. as
of 1983, as an indefinite suspect in humans. There is no polyvinyl
chloride listing in MTP Fourth Annual Report on Carclnoteni. 1985. OSHA.
as of 1/30/86, does not list polyvinyl chloride per se but requires label
ing that it may contain vinyl chloride monomer which Is listed as a cancer
suspect agent.
