DGK-Pellachrom P.U. 301 Sealer Safety Data Sheet

1. Identification of the substance / preparation and the Company

2. Hazards Identification

2.1 Substance/Preparation Classification
This preparate is dangerous under 67/548/EEC and 1999/45/EC directives and subsequent amendments. Therefore, this preparate requires a safety data sheet according to the Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 and subsequent amendments. Further information on health and/or environmental hazards can be found in sections 11 and 12 of this sheet.

2.2 Danger Identification
Because of its chemical-physical features, this product is graded as flammable (flash-point 21 °C or higher and 55 °C or lower ).

• HARMFUL IN CONTACT WITH SKIN.
• TOXIC BY INHALATION.
• IRRITATING TO SKIN.
• MAY CAUSE SENSITIZATION BY INHALATION AND SKIN CONTACT.
• HARMFUL TO AQUATIC ORGANISMS, MAY CAUSE LONG-TERM ADVERSE EFFECTS IN THE AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT.

This product contains isocyanates.

Producer's specifications are as follows:
Ready-to-use products containing isocyanates may irritate mucosas, particularly those of the respiratory system, and may give rise to hypersensitivity reactions. Vapour or aerosol inhalation may lead to sensitization.

Please take all the measures used for all solvent-containing products while manipulating isocyanate-containing products. Avoid vapour and aerosol inhalation.

People with allergic or asthmatic precedents or subject to respiratory disorders should not handle products containing isocyanates.

3. Composition / Information on ingredients Contains:

The complete text of -R- phrases is specified in section 16.

4. First aid measures

EYES: Irrigate copiously with clean, fresh water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical advice.

SKIN: Immediately wash with plenty of water. Remove all contaminated clothing. Obtain immediate medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing separately before using them again.

INHALATION: Remove to open air. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Obtain immediate medical attention.

INGESTION: Obtain immediate medical attention. Induce vomiting only if indicated by the doctor. Give nothing by mouth to an unconscious person.

5. Fire-fighting measures

Closed containers exposed to the heat of a fire may lead to pressure rise and explode. For information on environmental and health risks, protection of the respiratory airways, ventilation and individual protective measures, refer to the other sections of this sheet.

Extinguishing measures: CO₂, foam, chemical powder for flammable liquids. Water may not be effective to extinguish the fire, nevertheless it should be used to cool the containers exposed to flames and prevent fires and explosions. For leakage and spillage that have not caught fire, nebulized water may be used to disperse the flammable vapours and protect the people involved in stopping the leakage.

Equipment: wear equipment complete with helmet and face shield and protection of the neck, selfbreathing apparatus at pressure or demand, insulative jacket and trousers, with bands around the arms, legs and waist.

6. Accidental release measures

Exclude sources of ignition. Cover with inert absorbent material. Collect spillages by means of sparkproof equipment. Use water only to remove residuals, so as not to run the risk of entering the sewer.

Do not let the product dry. Contaminated clothes must be left to soak in water before washing. In order to choose safety measures and protection equipment, please see the other sections of this sheet.

Spillage in waters: remove the liquid from the surface with flameproof pumps or manual pumps or suitable absorbent material. Resort to sinking and/or dispersion of the product with suitable substances in open waters, if permitted by the law.

7. Handling and storage

Avoid the accumulation of electrostatic charges. Store the containers sealed and in a well ventilated place. Vapours may ignite with explosion, it is therefore necessary to avoid accumulation keeping the windows and doors open, ensuring crossventilation.

Without adequate ventilation, the vapours may accumulate at the bottom and ignite at a distance, if triggered off, with the risk of flashback. Keep far away from sources of heat, sparks and naked flames. Do not smoke, use matches or lighters. Keept the containers earthed while decanting and wear antistatic boots.

Vigorous stirring and flow through the pipings and equipment may cause the formation and accumulation of electrostatic charges due to the low conductivity of the product. In order to avoid the risk of fire outbreak and explosion never use compressed air during movement.

8. Exposure control / personal protection

8.1 Exposure limit values

C = CEILING

TLV of solvent mixture: 00,26 mg/m³

Adopt the closed circuit, if possible. If lacking, in order to avoid exposure and prevent its possible effects, even longterm, it is necessary to use adequate individual protective measures, such as: mask, safety goggles, impermeable gloves and overall, resistant to the product.

Ensure that all the operators follow the recommended precautions. Attach a copy to the containers in which the product may be transferred and do not use the product if the working conditions do not correspond to the recommended precautions; avoid contact with the eyes and skin and prolonged breathing of the vapours; store the container sealed when not being used.

Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling the product. Accurately wash the hands with soap and water before meals and take a shower at the end of the work shift. Working clothes should be washed separately and stored in a separate place.

In order to prevent longterm effects, periodic health controls should be carried out even if not established by the Law, including supplementary examinations which are deemed necessary according to the discretion of the occupational physician.

9. Physical and chemical properties

10. Stability and reactivity

The product is stable in normal conditions of use and storage. When heated or in the event of a fire, carbonoxides may be released and vapours which are dangerous to health. The vapours may also form explosive mixtures with the air.

The xylene present is stable but may give violent reactions if placed in contact with strong oxidants such as nitric acid, sulfuric acid, perchlorates and similar agents. It is biodegradable in water and decomposes in the sunlight (photodegradable).

11. Toxicological information

Acute effects: this product is toxic and causes poisoning by inhalation. Cutaneous absorption and ingestion may be harmful. Poisoning by inhalation may give rise to a series of symptoms, which may include: stinging and irritared eyes, mouth, throat; cough, respiratory disorders, dizziness, headache, nausea and sickness.

In the most serious cases, inhalation of this product may cause larynx and bronchial tube edema , chemical pneumonia and pulmonary edema, reduction or increase of heart-beat, copious salivation, blood sputum, loss of consciousness, behavioral disorders (depression or euphoria). This product may irritate eyes and skin. Ingestion of even small amounts of product may cause serious health problems (stomach pain, nausea, sickness, diarrhoea).

Inhalation of this product causes sensitization, which may give rise to a series of inflammatory episodes, most of all characterized by obstruction and affecting the respiratory system. Sometimes, sensitization phenomena arise together with evident rhinitis and asthma. Damages to the respiratory system depend on the inhaled quantity, on the product concentration in the working environment and on the exposure time.

Contact with skin causes sensitization (dermatitis). Dermatitis derives from skin irritation on the areas which repeatedly come into contact with the sensitizing agent. Cutaneous lesions may include: erythemas, edemas, papules, vescicles, pustules, scurves, ulcerations and exudative phenomena, whose intensity varies according to the illness seriousness and affected areas. Erythemas, edemas and exudative phenomena prevail during the acute phase. Scurfy skin, dryness, ulcerations and skin thickening prevail during the chronic phase.

Xylene: has a toxic effect on the CNS (encephalopathies). Irritating to the skin, conjunctivae, cornea and respiratory apparatus.

12. Ecological information

This product is dangerous for the environment and the aquatic organisms. In the long term, it may even have negative effects on the aquatic environment.

13. Disposal consideration

Consider the possibility of burning the product in a suitable incenerator.

Acid or basic products must always be neutralized before undergoing any treatment, including biological treatment whenever feasible. If the waste is solid, it can be disposed of in a landfill.
