Section 2: Composition / Information on Ingredients Principle Hazardous Component(s) (chemical and common name(s)) (Cas. No) Polyvinyl Formal Resin ( ) Formaldehyde ( ) % OSHA PEL mg/m3 ACGIH TLV mg/m3 NTP IARC OSHA regulated No No No < Yes Yes Yes Section 3: Hazard Identification Emergency overview Appearance: White to light yellow, free-flowing powder with a slightly pungent odor. Immediate effects: Irritation to the eyes, coughing, wheezing. Potential health effects Primary Routes of entry: Inhalation and ingestion. Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: ND Eyes: Slightly irritating. Skin: Not a significant skin concern. Ingestion: Nausea and vomiting. Inhalation: May be harmful. Chronic Exposure: ND Chemical Listed As Carcinogen Or Potential Carcinogen: ND See Toxicological Information (Section11) Potential environmental effects See Ecological Information (Section 12)

2 Section 4: First Aid Measures If accidental overexposure is suspected Eye(s) Contact: Wash eyes with water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Skin Contact: Remove material from the skin immediately with large amounts of water. Remove clothing Inhalation: If symptoms are experienced, move to fresh air, if symptoms persist, obtain medical attention. Ingestion: Adverse health effects due to ingestion are not anticipated. If gastric irritation or discomfort persists, seek medical attention. Note to physician Treatment: ND Medical Conditions generally Aggravated by Exposure: ND Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures Flash Point: ND Flammable Limits: ND Auto-ignition point: ND Fire Extinguishing Media: Water spray or any Class A extinguishing agent. Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Fire fighters and others who may be exposed to products of combustion should wear full protective clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus. Fire fighting equipment should be decontaminated after use. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Dust, when mixed with sufficient quantities of air, creates a potential for explosive concentrations.

DOT Class: None Section 6: Accidental Release Measures Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Vacuum or sweep up polymer, taking care to avoid creating a dust cloud. Waste Disposal Methods: Dispose of waste according to Federal, State and Local Regulations. Section 7: Handling and Storage Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid creating a dust cloud in handling, transfer and clean up. Storage temperature: Room temperature. Storage Pressure: NA Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection Engineering Controls Ventilation required: Provide sufficient ventilation to minimize exposure. Use local mechanical exhaust ventilation. Personal Protection Equipment

3 Respiratory protection: Avoid breathing dust. Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection equipment when airborne exposure is excessive. Consult respirator manufacturer to determine appropriate type equipment for given application. The respirator use limitations specified by NIOSH/MSHA or the manufacturer must be observed. High airborne concentrations may require use of self-contained breathing apparatus or supplied air respirator. Respiratory protection programs must comply with 29 CFR Protective gloves: Wearing of protective gloves is recommended. Skin protection: Skin contamination should be minimized as good industrial practice. Wash hands and contaminated skin after handling the product. Eye protection: Wear safety glasses. Avoid eye contact as good industrial practice.
