Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, water fog or foam. Water can be used to
cool fire exposed containers.

worn in fighting large fires involving chemicals. Determine the need to
evacuate or isolate the area according to your local emergency plan.

================================================================================
SECTION V – HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
================================================================================

ROUTES OF ENTRY INTO THE BODY (ACUTE EFFECTS):

Eyes: Direct contact may cause moderate irritation
Skin: May cause moderate irritation
Inhalation: Irritates respiratory passages very slightly. If material is heated or vapour
generated, care should be taken to prevent inhalation. If high vapour
concentrations are attained then central nervous system depression may occur,
characterized by drowsiness, dizziness, confusion or loss of coordination.

Ingestion: Low ingestion hazard in normal use

WHMIS HAZARD SYMBOL(S):

Effects of Overexposure: Acetic acid vapours may irritate eyes, nose and throat. Direct contact with eyes
and skin will irritate. Pigmented Sealants: Although the carbon black
(CAS #1333-86-4) is encapsulated by the silicone sealant, prolonged
overexposure to carbon black dust causes lung fibrosis. Although the
titanium dioxide (CAS # 13463-67-7) is encapsulated by the silicone
sealant, prolonged overexposure to titanium dioxide dust causes
tightness pain in the chest, coughing and difficulty breathing.
Sensitization: No known applicable information.
Carcinogenicity: No ingredients considered by IARC, NTP or OSHA to be carcinogens
except in the pigmented sealants which may contain: Carbon Black
(CAS# 1333-86-4): IARC Group 2B – possibly carcinogenic to
humans. Titanium Dioxide (CAS # 13463-67-7); IARC Group 2B –
possibly carcinogenic to humans.
Reproductive Toxicity: Evidence of reproductive effects in laboratory animals when exposed to
Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (CAS# 556-67-2) by inhalation at
concentrations of 500 ppm or higher for 70 days prior to mating.
Teratogenicity: No effects observed in laboratory animals when exposed to
Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (CAS# 556-67-2) by inhalation at
concentrations up to 700 ppm.
.
Mutagenicity: No known applicable information.
Synergistic Products: No known applicable information.

SECTION VI - FIRST AID MEASURES
================================================================================

Eyes: Flush with copious quantities of lukewarm water. Do not attempt to physically remove
the solids or gums from the eyes. Seek medical attention immediately.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with warm water and non-abrasive
soap. Seek medical attention if you feel ill or a reaction develops.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air and provide water. Seek medical attention if you feel ill or a reaction
develops.
Ingestion: Get medical attention.

================================================================================
SECTION VII – STABILITY AND REACTIVITY DATA
================================================================================

Chemical Stability: Stable.

Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents or electrophiles (e.g. ferric chloride).
Concentrated acids or bases can degrade the silicone polymer.
Reactive Conditions: Moisture and incompatible materials.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.

================================================================================
SECTION VIII – EXPOSURE CONTROL / PERSONAL PROTECTION
================================================================================

Component Exposure Limits: Amorphous Silica (CAS# 7631-86-9): Although the silica is coated
with the silicone sealant observe the particulate limits. OSHA PEL:
TWA 80 mg/m³ / SiO2. NIOSH REL: TWA 6 mg/m³.
Methyl Triacetoxysilane (CAS# 4253-34-3): forms acetic acid upon
contact with atmospheric moisture. Provide adequate ventilation to
control exposures within the following exposure guidelines: ACGIH
TLV: TWA 10 ppm, STEL 15 ppm; OSHA PEL: TWA 10 ppm.
Ethyl Triacetoxysilane (CAS# 17689-77-9): forms acetic acid upon
contact with atmospheric moisture. Provide adequate ventilation to
control exposures within the following exposure guidelines: ACGIH
TLV: TWA 10 ppm, STEL 15 ppm; OSHA PEL: TWA 10 ppm.
Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (CAS# 556-67-2): Provide adequate
ventilation to control exposures within the following exposure
guidelines: ACGIH TLV: TWA 10 ppm, STEL 15 ppm; OSHA PEL:
TWA 10 ppm.
Pigmented Sealants: Carbon Black (CAS# 1333-86-4): Although the
carbon black is coated with the silicone sealant observe the particulate
limits. OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV: TWA 3.5 mg/m³. Titanium
Dioxide (CAS# 13463-67-7): Although the titanium dioxide is coated
with the silicone sealant observe the particulate limits. OSHA PEL:
TWA 15 mg/m³. ACGIH TLV: TWA 10 mg/m³.

Iron Oxide: (CAS # 1309-37-1): Although the iron oxide is coated with
the silicone sealant observe the particulate limits. OSHA PEL: TWA
10 mg/m³, ACHIH TLV: TWA 5 mg/m³ respirable fraction. Pigment
Blue 15 (CAS# 147-14-8): Although the pigment blue 15 is coated with
the silicone sealant observe copper dust limits. OSHA PEL: TWA1
mg/m³; ACGIH TLV: TWA 1mg/m³.

Respiratory: Use respiratory protection unless local exhaust ventilation is provided

or exposures are within guidelines.
Ventilation: In indoor applications, passive ventilation (opening of doors and
windows) is recommended. Local exhaust as necessary to keep
exposure levels within guidelines.
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety glasses with side-protection, impermeable gloves (e.g.,
neoprene, nitrile, silver shield (R)), coveralls or apron are important in
preventing contamination of eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly
after handling.
Containment/Clean Up: Restrict access to the area of the spill. Provide ventilation
NIOSH/MHSA approved respirator and protective clothing. Scrape up
sealant and place in container for disposal. Clean area as appropriate
since silicone materials can represent a slip hazard. Cleaning may
require steam, solvents or detergents. Dispose of saturated absorbant or
cleaning materials appropriately, since spontaneous heating may occur.
Local, state / provincial, federal laws and regulations may apply to
releases and disposal of this material, as well as those materials and
items employed in the cleanup.
Handling and Storage: Store in an adequately ventilated area under dry conditions between
50°F (10°C) to 77°F (25°C) and keep container tightly sealed when not
in use.
