Eye/Face Protection: Use properly fitted safety glasses. If vapor exposure causes eye discomfort, a
full-face respirator may be necessary.
Skin Protection: Wear protective clothing suitable to the conditions of use. Clean, body-covering
clothing and protective gloves should be worn at all times when handling the product.
Respiratory Protection: If local exhaust ventilation is inadequate, use a properly fitted, air-purifying
mask suitable to the level of anticipated exposure.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products,
before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Wash contaminated
clothing before reusing.

SECTION 10: Stability and Reactivity
Reactivity: Product reacts exothermically with epoxide resins. Product by itself is stable and relatively
non-reactive under normal conditions of use, storage and shipping.
Chemical Stability: Product is stable under normal use and temperature conditions. Prolonged
excessive heat may cause partial degradation.
Possibility of Hazardous Reactions: Under normal conditions of storage and use, hazardous reactions
will not occur.
Conditions to Avoid: Avoid contact with incompatible materials. Avoid excessive heat. Store between
60-90°F.
Incompatible Materials: Avoid contact with acids, oxidizers, acrylates, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones
and halogenated hydrocarbons. Avoid contact with metal such as copper, copper alloys, brass and
bronze. Avoid bulk contact with epoxides. Material reacts with considerable heat release with some
epoxide resins.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, acrid smoke and fumes
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur by itself, but hazardous polymerizations may occur with
aliphatic amines in masses greater than one pound with considerable heat buildup.
