abnormalities and nervous system damage.
Contains carbon black. Chronic inflammation, lung fibrosis, and lung tumors have been observed in some rats
experimentally exposed for long periods of time to excessive concentrations of carbon black and several insoluble
fine dust particles. Tumors have not been observed in other animal species (i.e., mouse and hamster) under
similar circumstances and study conditions. Epidemiological studies of North American workers show no evidence
of clinically significant adverse health effects due to occupational exposure to carbon black.
Carbon black is listed as a Group 2B-"Possibly carcinogenic to humans" by IARC and is proposed to be listed as
A4- "not classified as a human carcinogen" by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists.
Significant exposure is not anticipated during brush application or drying. Risk of overexposure depends on
duration and level of exposure to dust from repeated sanding of surfaces or spray mist and the actual
concentration of carbon black in the formula.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Skin Absorption, Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye Contact
First Aid - Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes holding eyelids open.
Get medical attention. Do NOT allow rubbing of eyes or keeping eyes closed.
First Aid - Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
First Aid - Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. Get immediate medical attention. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
First Aid - Ingestion: Aspiration hazard: Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth because this material
can enter the lungs and cause severe lung damage. Get immediate medical attention.
Flash Point: 52 F (Setaflash)
Extinguishing Media: Film Forming Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Vapors may
form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Water may be used to cool
closed containers to prevent pressure buildup and possible autoignition or explosion.
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Eliminate all ignition sources; use explosion-proof
equipment. Place material in a container and dispose of according to local, provincial, state and federal
regulations. Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. DO NOT use combustible materials such as sawdust.
Handling: Follow all MSDS/label precautions even after container is emptied because it may retain product
residues. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating.
Storage: Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Keep
