Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:– Organic components decompose at 200-455°C (392-851°F).– Material may explosively combust when finelysuspended in air.– Thermal decomposition of organic components mayresult in release of oxides of carbon and nitrogen.Health Hazards DataRoutes of Entry: Inhalation, Ingestion, Eyes, Skin.Health Hazards:1 Styrene/acrylate CopolymerSubcutaneous implantation of polymeric styrenepowder in rats has induced tumors at the site ofimplantation.2 Carbon black(Group 2B “Possible Carcinogen”; IARC)Overexposure to carbon black is associated withcausing irritation, conjunctivitis, and cornealhypoplasia of the eyes; minor irritation and eczema ofthe skin; and irritation and bronchitis. Long-terminhalation exposure may be associated with causinglung cancer.3 Polypropylene(Group 3 “Not Classifiable”; IARC)Subcutaneous implantation of polypropylene powder inrats has induced tumors at the site of implantation.4 Amorphous Fumed Silica(Group 3 “Not Classifiable”; IARC)Overexposure to amorphous silica has been associatedwith causing irritation of the lungs andpneumoconiosis. Long-term inhalation exposure maybe associated with producing tumors in laboratoryanimals.Reactivity DataStability: StablePolymerization: Will not occur.Hazardous Decomposition Products: Thermaldecomposition may result in release of oxides of carbonand nitrogen.Temperature: Do not expose to temperatures above200°C (392°F).Incompatibility: Avoid exposure to strong oxidizers.Spill Cleanup and DisposalSpill CleanupSmall Spills1 Remove sources of ignition.2 Clean up spill with wet cloth.Large Spills1 Remove sources of ignition.2 Wear protective gear: respirator, rubber gloves, goggles(see below)3 Clean up spill with scoop, being careful not to generatea lot of dust.Waste DisposalFollow appropriate federal, state and local regulations.Safe Handling and UseRespiratory Protection: Not normally required. For largespills, use NIOSH-approved full face-piece respiratorwith HEPA cartridge during cleanup.Protective Gloves and/or Eye Protection: Not normallyrequired. For large spills, use rubber gloves andchemical worker’s goggles during cleanup.Ventilation: Outside of normal ventilation, not normallyrequired.Other Protective Equipment and/or Hygienic Practices:NoneSpecial PrecautionsPrecautions for Handling or Storage: Protect from highheat.
