Health Effects
|
|
| Avoid breathing vapors and spray mist. Use only with adequate ventilation. Vapors may pose health hazards. To avoid overexposure, open windows and doors or use other means to ensure fresh air entry during application and drying. If you experience eye watering, headache or dizziness, increase fresh air, or wear respiratory protection (NIOSH/MSHA TC23C or equivalent) or leave the area. If continued difficulty is experienced, get medical assistance immediately. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wear eye protection and protective clothing to avoid getting this product in eyes or on skin. Wash thoroughly after handling with soap and water. In case of eye contact, flush eye immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, then get medical attention. Avoid inhaling sprayed mist or breathing dust when sanding dried film of this product, as this product contains crystalline silica. To avoid breathing paint spray mist, wear a respirator which meets NIOSH/ MSHA TC 23C or equivalent. If swallowed, immediately give 1 or 2 glasses of water and call a physician, hospital emergency room or poison control center for way to induce vomiting. Close container after each use.

EXPOSURE EFFECTS
INHALATION: Excessive inhalation of vapors can cause nasal and respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and/or headache. Overexposure can cause neurological damage. Mists or vapors from hot operations, can cause mental sluggishness pulmonary edema (accumulation of fluid in the lungs, signs and symptoms can be delayed for several hours) and bronchial pneumonia.
SKIN: Due to individual sensitization, this product can cause skin irritation upon
prolonged or repeated contact.
EYES: Trace amounts of amine and residual monomer vapors may be irritating to the eyes especially in poorly ventilated areas. Irritation in the form of
redness, tearing and/or blurred vision. Vapors can cause severe conjunctivitis.
INGESTION: Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Aspiration of material into lungs can cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal.
ETHYLENE GLYCOL: CAS #107-21-1 TOXIC DATA: INGESTION: Slightly toxic to
humans (oral LD: 1.6 g/kg). Causes mental sluggishness followed by difficulty
in breathing and heart failure, kidney and brain damage, possibly death.
Practically non-toxic to animals (or LD50 rats= 8.5 g/kg).
Health Conditions Aggravated By Exposure
Effects of repeated overexposure. No evidence of adverse effects from
available information.
|
From MSDS
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposures to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may be harmful or fatal.

From MSDS
TITANIUM DIOXIDE: In an inhalation study, E.I. DuPont's Haskel Toxicology Laboratory found evidence of lung cancer (malignant tumors) in 1 out of 77 male rats and 13 out of 74 female rats after they were exposed to 250 mg/m3 titanium dioxide respirable dust for a two year period. The exposure level of 250 mg/m3 is approximately 50 times that permitted in an occupational environment.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) conducted a feeding study in rats and
mice in which either 25,000 or 50,000 parts per million titanium dioxide was
given in their diets for two years. Under the conditions of the NCI test,
titanium dioxide didn't cause cancer by the oral route.

EYE: If this product comes in contact with the eyes, flush with large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids occasionally.
SKIN: Thoroughly wash exposed area with soap and large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
INGESTION: Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Consult a physician or poison control center immediately. Treat symptomatically.
INHALATION: Individual may experience dizziness or lightheadedness when working in areas of high vapor concentrations. Victim should seek air free of vapors. If breathing stops, begin artificial respiration and seek immediate medical attention.
