Do not flush to sewer,stream or other bodies of water unless authorized to do so by appropriate government official.
<br /> Precautions: If airborne concentration exceeds established exposure limits(TLV or PEL),or if high airborne concentrations can
<br /> • occur,evacuate employees and ventilate the area.
<br /> A supplied air respirator or self-contained breathing apparatus(SOBA),should be used for entry into enclosed spaces,or in areas with
<br /> inadequate ventilation,
<br /> Disposal Methods: if discarded in its original unused form,this product does not meet the definition of a RCRA hazardous waste
<br /> under 40CFR 261. Nevertheless,it should be managed(stored/treated/disposed/etc.)at an authorized facility,in compliance with all

<br /> Section 7—Health Hazard Data
<br /> Primary routes of exposure: Inhalation-No, Skin and Eyes-Yes
<br /> Skin Contact: Slight incidental contact is not expected to produce adverse effects.
<br /> Eyes: Other than mechanical irritation,no adverse effects are expected.
<br /> Ingestion: Adverse effects are not expected
<br /> Inhalation: Under normal conditions of use,no adverse effects are expected.
<br /> Additional Effects: Depending on the route,frequency,and duration of exposure,toxicity may occur in the following organs and/or
<br /> systems:eye.
<br /> Aggravation of existing conditions: Exposure to this product is not expected to contribute to,worsen,or aggravate any existing
<br /> medical conditions.
<br /> Section 8—Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
<br /> Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses. An eye wash facility should be readily available,
<br /> Skin Protection: Wear protective clothing and appropriate impervious gloves. Because a variety of protective gloves exist,always
<br /> consult glove manufacturer to determine the proper type for specific operation.
<br /> Respiratory Protection: When established airborne exposure limits are surpassed(see airborne exposure Emits in this section)wear
<br /> NIOSH/MSHA approved equipment.
<br /> Determine the appropriate type of equipment for the specific application by consulting the respirator manufacturer. Observe the
<br /> respirator use limitations specified by NIOSH/MSHA or the manufacturer. High airborne concentrations may necessitate the use of
<br /> self-contained breathing apparatus(SOBA)or a supplied air respirator. In addition,respiratory protection programs must be in
<br /> compliance with 29 CFR 1910.134.
<br /> Ventilation: Minimize exposure by providing adequate ventilation. General(dilution)ventilation may be acceptable. However,local
<br /> exhaust ventilation is recommended when vapors,mists,or dusts can be released.
<br /> Personal Hygiene: Wash thoroughly after handling,especially before eating,drinking,smoking or using restroom facilities. Contami-
<br /> nated clothing and shoes should be thoroughly cleaned and dried before reuse.
<br /> Airborne Exposure Limits:
<br /> Carbon Black ACGIH TLV-TWA: 3.5 mg/m3 OSHAPEL: 3.5 mg/m3
<br /> Note: Because of this products physical composition,the release or generation of a dust is not expected to occur under normal
<br /> conditions of use.
<br /> Section 9—First Aid
<br /> Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If symptoms develop,seek immediate medical attention. If not breathing,give artificial respiration,
<br /> preferably mouth to mouth.
