Not considered a controlled substance or a carcinogen. * Avoid mineral acids and alkalis * Avoid Fluorine Page 2 of 3 - PolyBacked Rug Matting SECTION IV: FIRST AID MEASURES EYE CONTACT: Use eyewash, consult physician if accompanied by pain or irritation. SKIN CONTACT: N/A INHALATION: N/A INGESTION: N/A SECTION V: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES FLASH POINT: 340o C (645o F) (per ASTM D1929) AUTO IGNITION: > 550o C (1022o F) FLAMMABLE LIMITS: N/A FIRE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water, Foam, CO2, Dry Chemical SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Standard procedures for Class A fires UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Overheated or molten material may burn slowly with dense smoke. Avoid inhalation of vapors. Sorbents will take on the characteristics/properties of whatever liquid is absorbed. Therefore, all measures must be taken as if you were handling the liquid itself. Sorbents do not make the liquid less hazardous. Always refer to the MSDS for the chemical absorbed before proceeding SECTION VI: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES If material is not contaminated, return to proper package for use. If material is contaminated, please in proper container for disposal. Sorbents will take on the characteristics/properties of whatever liquid is absorbed. Therefore, all measures must be taken as if you were handling the liquid itself. Sorbents do not make the liquid less hazardous. Always refer to the MSDS for the chemical absorbed before proceeding Product is fabric made from polyolefin fibers and yarn and the roll may be very heavy. Use caution in the even of spill on uneven ground. Use suitably rated lifting equipment in the event a roll needs to be moved. SECTION VII: HANDLING AND STORAGE Store fabrics in a wrehouse equipped with sprinkler system. Avoid temperatures above 200o F. Avoid extreme humidity. Do not store near open flame, high heat, strong oxidants, or halogenated hydrocarbons. Polyolefin, when heated, becomes very sticky and will burn. Use self-contained air masks to enter smoky area in the event of fire. Adequate ventilation is required to remove decomposition products when temperature exceeds melting point. Avoid contact with melted product. Store away from oxidizing materials in a cool, dry place. Do not store in direct sunlight. No special handling needed for uncontaminated product. Sorbents will take on the characteristics/properties of whatever liquid is absorbed. Sorbents do not make the liquid less hazardous. Always refer to the MSDS for the chemical absorbed before proceeding SECTION VIII: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/ PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None Required VENTILATION: None Required PROTECTIVE GLOVES: None Required EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses with side shields are recommended as a good practice for industrial safety. OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (SPECIFY): None Required Page 3 of 3 - PolyBacked Rug Matting SECTION IX: PHYSICAL DATA APPEARANCE AND ODOR: Gray or black & virtually odor free SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 0.915 BOILING POINT (C): Not Applicable MELTING POINT (C): 165o C (329o F) SOLUBILITY IN WATER: Insoluble PERCENT VOLATILE BY VOLUME: N/A EVAPORATION RATE: N/A VAPOR PRESSURE (mm Hg): N/A VAPOR DENSITY (Air = 1): N/A SECTION X: TRANSPORT INFORMATION DOT CLASSIFICATION: Non Hazardous SECTION XI: WASTE XI DISPOSAL METHOD Disposal must be done in accordance with local, state and federal regulations based on chemicals adsorbed by products. Sorbents will take on the characteristics/properties of whatever liquid is absorbed. Therefore, all measures must be taken as if you were handling the liquid itself. Sorbents do not make the liquid less hazardous. Always refer to the MSDS for the chemical absorbed before proceeding SECTION XII: PREPARATION The information contained herein is given in good faith, but no warranty, expressed or implied, is made.
