PERSONAL SAFETY
Avoid all skin and eye contact. Wash thoroughly after handling. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Avoid inhalation of vapors from heated product. Precautionary steps should be taken when curing product in large quantities. When mixed with epoxy curing agents, this product causes an exothermic reaction, which in large masses, can produce enough heat to damage or ignite surrounding materials and emit fumes and vapors that vary widely in composition and toxicity. Wear safety glasses with side shields or chemical splash goggles, wear liquid-proof, chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile-butyl rubber, neoprene, butyl rubber or natural rubber), and full body-covering clothing. Use with adequate general ventilation and/or local ventilation to keep exposures below established limits. When ventilation cannot be made adequate enough to keep exposures below established limits, use a NIOSH-approved respirator with an organic vapor cartridge, or organic vapor cartridge + P100 particulate filter, depending on specific workplace conditions. Use and select a respirator according the guidelines established in OSHA 1910.134 or other applicable respiratory protection standard. Avoid skin contact when removing gloves and other protective equipment. Wash thoroughly after handling. Generally speaking, working cleanly and following basic precautionary measures will greatly minimize the potential for harmful exposure to this product under normal use conditions.
