In accordance with GHS for the classification of the product, thehazard potential may be assessed with respect to the physico-chemical form and/or bioavailability of the individual components in thethermoplastic GHS classifications are shown below, these are based on the individual components in the thermoplastic resin matrix.
2 Under thetypical use conditions for the resin, these hazardous components are unlikely to contribute to workplace exposure.

COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTSThis product consists primarily of high molecular weight polymers which are not expected to be hazardous. The ingredients in thisproduct are present within the polymer matrix and are not expected to be FIRST AID MEASURESIf Inhalation:Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of fumes from overheating or combustion.
3 Ifsymptoms persist, call a skin contact:Immediately cool the skin by rinsing with cold water after contact with hot material. Wash offimmediately with soap and plenty of water. Consult a contact with eyes:Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses andcontinue flushing for at least 15 minutes. If eye irritation persists, consult a ingestion:No hazards which require special first aid :Cool molten product on skin with plenty of water. Do not remove solidified product. Do not peelpolymer from the Information:Cool skin rapidly with cold water after contact with molten material. Heating can releasehazardous gases. Hazardous fumes can also occur in post-processing operations. Pellets with slight or no odor Spilled material may create slipping hazard Can burn in a fire creating dense, toxic smoke Molten plastic can cause severe thermal burns Fumes produced during melt processing may cause eye, skin, and respiratory tract irritation.
4 Severe over-exposure may result innausea, headache, chills, and fever. See below for additional effects. Secondary operations, such as grinding, sanding, or sawing can produce dust which may present an explosion or respiratory Issues:Processing vapors may cause irritation to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. In cases ofsevere exposure, nausea and headache can also occur. Grease-like processing vaporcondensates on ventilation ductwork, molds, and other surfaces can cause irritation and injuryto Medical Conditions:MEDICAL RESTRICTIONS: There are no known health effects aggravated by exposure to thisproduct. However, certain sensitive individuals and individuals with respiratory impairmentsmay be affected by exposure to components in the processing Emergency OverviewProduct Name: F00952-00900 Page 2 of 7 Revision date: 08-Jan-20145. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURESA utoignition Temperature:>300 CExplosive Limitsupper:Not determinedlower:Not determinedSuitable Extinguishing Media:Use dry chemical, CO2, water spray or "alcohol" foam.
5 Water is the best extinguishingmedium. Carbon dioxide and dry chemical are not generally recommended because their lackof cooling capacity may permit re-ignition on larger resin fires (blobs, drools, etc.).Unsuitable ExtinguishingMedia for SAFETY Reasons:Do not use a solid water stream as it may scatter and spread from CombustionProducts:Fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous combustion products, carbonoxides, hydrocarbon Hazards:Take precautionary measures against static discharges. During processing, dust may formexplosive mixture in air. Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating gases Protective Equipmentfor Firefighters:In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus (EU: NEN-EN137).Exposure hazards:Do not release chemically contaminated water into drains, soil or surface water. Sufficientmeasures must be taken to retain the water used for extinguishing.
6 Dispose of contaminatedwater and soil according to local ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURESP ersonal Precautions:See section 8. If spilled, take caution, as material can cause surfaces to become very Precautions:Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Material should not be released intothe up:Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal. Do not create a powder cloud byusing a brush or compressed HANDLING AND STORAGEH andling:Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and SAFETY practices Provide for appropriateexhaust ventilation and dust collection at machinery Minimize dust generation andaccumulation. Routine housekeeping should be instituted to ensure that dusts do notaccumulate on surfaces. Dry powders can build static electricity charges when subjected tothe friction of transfer and mixing operations. Provide adequate precautions, such as electricalgrounding and bonding, or inert atmospheresStorage:Store in a dry and cool area.
7 Keep away from heat sources and sources of ignition. Keep awayfrom direct EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTIONE xposure limits: No components with information, unless noted belowPage 3 of 7 Revision date: 08-Jan-2014 Product Name: F00952-00900*SABIC Recommended Exposure Limits have been established for certain Measures toReduce Exposure:In the case of hazardous fumes, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear face-shieldand protective suit for abnormal processing problems. Handle in accordance with goodindustrial hygiene and SAFETY practice. Provide for appropriate exhaust ventilation at Protection:Protective gloves should be worn, (EU: NEN-EN 374), When handling hot material, wear heat-resistant protective gloves that are able to withstand the temperature of molton resinEye Protection: SAFETY glasses with side-shields. (EU: NEN-EN 165-166).Respiratory Protection:In the case of hazardous fumes, wear self contained breathing apparatus.
8 In case ofinsufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment. (EU: NEN-EN149).Body Protection:Long sleeved clothing (EU: NEN-EN 340-369-465)Hygiene Measures:When using, do not eat, drink or PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIESP hysical State:SolidAppearance:PelletsColor:Same as color codeOdor:CharacteristicMelting point/range:120-140 CBoiling point/range:decomposition starting from 300 CFlash Point:Not applicableEvaporation Rate:NegligibleExplosive Limitsupper:Not determinedlower:Not determinedVapor Pressure: g/cm Water Solubility:InsolubleAutoignition Temperature:>300 CExplosive Properties:Dust may form explosive mixture in airOxidising Properties:Not oxidisingVOC content (%):Negligible10.

9 Heating can result in theformation of gaseous decomposition products, some of which maybe hazardous. Do not exceed melt temperature recommendationsin product literature. Purgings of hot material should be collected insmall, flat, thin shapes and quenched with water to allow for rapidcooling.
