SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA

STABILITY: Stable under normal conditions.

CONDITIONS TO AVOID:Heat, high temperature, open flame, sparks, and moisture. Contact with incompatible materials in a closed system will cause liberation of carbon dioxide and buildup of pressure.

INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID):This product will react with any material containing active hydrogens, such as water, alcohol, ammonia, amines, alkalis and acids, the reaction with water is very slow under 50°C, but is accelerated at higher temperature and in the presence of alkalis, tertiary amines, and metal compounds. Some reactions can be violent. Keep away from strong oxidizers such as hydrogen peroxide, bromine and chronic acid.

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BY-PRODUCTS:Combustion products: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, ammonia, trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide and unidentified organic compounds.

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION:May occur at high temperatures, above 204°C (400°F). Possible evolution of carbon dioxide gas at extremely high temperatures, may rupture closed containers.


SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA

SKIN CONTACT:Isocyanates react with skin protein and moisture and can cause irritation. Prolonged contact can cause reddening, swelling, rash, scaling, blistering, and, in some cases, skin sensitization. Individuals who have developed a skin sensitization can develop these symptoms as a result of contact with very small amounts of liquid material or as a result of exposure to vapor. Animal tests have indicated that respiratory sensitization can result from skin contact with MDI. This reinforces the need to prevent direct skin contact with the product by using Nitrile gloves, Tyvek suit and full face shield.

EYE CONTACT:Liquid, aerosols or vapors are severely irritating and can cause pain, tearing, reddening and swelling. Prolonged vapor contact may cause conjunctivitis. Any level of contact should not be left untreated.

SKIN ABSORPTION: Systemically toxic concentrations of this product will probably not be absorbed through human skin.

INGESTION: Systemically toxic concentrations of this product will probably not be absorbed through human skin.

INHALATION: The following information applies only to products that contain MDI that are applied by spraying or that require heating. Roklin products are neither heated nor sprayed and are below the TLV when used properly. MDI vapors or mist at concentrations above the TLV (Threshold Limit Value) can irritate (burning sensation) the mucous membranes in the respiratory tract (nose, throat, lungs) causing runny nose, sore throat, coughing, chest discomfort, shortness of breath and reduced lung function (breathing obstruction). High vapor concentrations may cause central nervous system (CNS) depression as evidenced by giddiness, headache, dizziness, and nausea. Persons with a preexisting, non-specific bronchial hyperactivity can respond to concentrations below the TLV with similar symptoms as well as asthma attack. Exposure well above the TLV may lead to bronchitis, bronchial spasm and
pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs). As a result of previous repeated overexposures or a single large dose, certain individuals may develop isocyanate sensitization (chemical asthma) which will cause them to react to a later exposure to isocyanate at levels well below the TLV. Similar to many non-specific asthmatic responses, there are reports that once sensitized an individual can experience these symptoms upon exposure to dust, cold air or other irritants. This increased lung sensitivity can persist for weeks and in severe cases for several years. Chronic overexposure to isocyanate has also been reported to cause lung damage (including decrease in lung function) which may be permanent. Sensitization can either be temporary or permanent.

HEALTH HAZARDS: ACUTE:Exposure may cause mucous membrane and respiratory tract irritation, tightness of chest, headache, shortness of breath, and a dry cough. At concentrations exceeding current occupational limits and for sensitized individuals at levels less than or greater than current occupational limits, asthma-like symptoms may occur. These symptoms may include coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. A hypersensitive pneumonitis may also occur if the person is sensitized. This syndrome is characterized by fever, nonproductive cough, wheezing, chills, and shortness of breath. Central nervous system (CNS) depression may
also result. The effects of acute exposure may be delayed in onset up to 12-24 hours. CHRONIC: Repeated exposure above current occupational limits may cause an allergic sensitization of the respiratory tract. This is characterized by an asthma-like response upon
re-exposure to the chemical. The symptoms may include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness, and may be fatal. Central nervous system (CNS) depression may also result; unconsciousness and death may occur in extreme cases.

CARCINOGENICITY: NTP: No IARC Monographs: No OSHA Regulated: No

MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:Cardiovascular disease, asthma or asthmatic bronchitis, emphysema, allergic disease, dermatitis, chronic respiratory disease, sinusitis, headache and dizziness.

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, preferably lukewarm. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Have eyes examined and treated by
medical personnel. INHALATION: Remove victim to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is labored, give oxygen. Consult medical personnel. SKIN CONTACT: Wash material off the skin thoroughly with plenty of soap and water. If redness, itching, or a burning sensation develops, get medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing and decontaminate footwear before reuse. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. Give 1-2 glasses of milk or water to drink and refer person to medical personnel. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.


SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Wear skin, eye, and respiratory protection during cleanup. Soak up material with absorbent and shovel into a chemical waste container. Cover container, but do not seal, and remove from work area. Prepare a decontamination solution of 2.0% liquid detergent and 3-8% concentrated ammonium hydroxide in water (5-10% sodium carbonate may be substituted for the ammonium hydroxide). Follow the precautions on the supplier's material safety data sheets. All operations should be performed by trained personnel familiar with the hazards of the chemicals used. Treat the spill area with the decontamination solution, using about 10 parts of solution for each part of the spill, and allow it to react for at least 15 minutes. Carbon dioxide will be evolved, leaving insoluble polyureas. Residues from spill cleanup, even when treated as described may continue

to be regulated under provisions of RCRA and require storage and disposal as hazardous waste. For major spills, call CHEMTREC (Chemical Transportation Emergency Center) at 800-424-9300.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Empty containers can be disposed of in a normal manner. If A and B residue exists they are to be combined and mixed to create an inert polymerized mass which can then be disposed of in compliance with all relevant local, state, and federal laws and regulations.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: Keep in cool, dry, ventilated storage area, in closed containers and out of direct sunlight. Store in containers above ground and surrounded by dikes to contain spills or leaks. Keep containers closed when not in use.

OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Prevent skin and eye contact, observe TLV limitations. Avoid breathing vapors when vapors are present. Workers should shower and change to fresh clothing after each shift. A sensitized individual should not be exposed to the product that caused the sensitization. Air circulation and exhaustion of isocyanate vapors must be maintained until the coatings have fully cured to insure that no health hazard remains. Warning properties (irritation of the eyes, nose and throat or odor) are not adequate to prevent chronic overexposure from inhalation. This product can produce asthmatic sensitization upon either single inhalation exposure to a relatively high concentration or upon repeated inhalation exposure to lower concentrations. Exposure to vapors of heated isocyanates can be extremely dangerous. Employee education and training in safe handling of this material is required under OSHA hazard communication standard. Individuals with existing respiratory disease such as chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or asthma should not be exposed to isocyanates. These individuals should be identified through baseline and annual evaluation and removed from further exposure. Medical examination should include medical history, vital capacity, and forced expiratory volume at one second.


SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES

VENTILATION: If needed, use local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the TLV. Follow guidelines in the ACGIH publication “Industrial Ventilation”.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: If airborne concentrations exceed or are expected to exceed the TLV (during heating or spraying process), use MSHA/NIOSH approved positive pessure supplied air respirator with a full-face piece or an air supplied hood. For emergencies, use a positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. Air purifying (cartridge type) respirators are not approved for protection against isocyanates.

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Nitrile Gloves determined to be impervious under the conditions of use should be worn always when working with this product. A Tyvek suit is also recommended. Depending on conditions of use, additional protection may be required such as apron or arm covers. Wash contaminated clothing before wearing.

EYE PROTECTION: Full-face shield/splash guard in case of splashing.

OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND MEASURES: Unhindered access to safety shower and eye wash stations. As a general hygienic practice, wash hands and face after use. Showers and cleaning of clothes are recommended. Follow all label instructions. Educate and train employees in safe use of product.
