HAZARD
IDENTIFICATION
==============================================================================
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: YES Skin: YES Ingestion: YES
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: YES IARC: YES OSHA: YES
Health Hazards Acute And Chronic: ACUTE: DUST MAY CAUSE EYE IRRIT. PROD IS
HYDROPHILIC (ABSORBS MOISTURE) & WILL FORM GELATINOUS FILM IN CONT W/EYE.
IRRIT EXPER, IF ANY, IS EXPECTED TO BE PHYSICAL RATHER THAN CHEM EFT.
CHRONIC:NO PULM EFTS HAVE BEEN SEEN IN PRODUCTION WORKE RS EXPOSED TO CARBOPOL
RESIN. HOWEVER, ANIMAL STUDIES HAVE (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity: BENZENE: KNOWN CARCINOGEN (NTP),GROUP 1 (IARC)
OSHA REGULATED
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: HLTH HAZ:BEEN SUGGESTIVE OF PULM EFTS FROM
INHAL OF THIS & SIMILAR SUBSTANCES. NO ADVERSE HLTH EFTS ARE EXPECTED FROM
HNDLG/PROCESSING CARBOPOL RESINS WHEN POTNTL EXPOS ARE ELIM BY GOOD INDUS
HYGIENE PRACT, WELL-VENTD CNDTNS & BY FOLLOWING GUIDELINES PRESENTED IN
THIS BULLETIN. BECAUSE IT IS A FINE PWDR, DUST (ING 3)
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: NONE KNOWN.
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
EYES:IMMED FLUSH W/PLENTY OF PHYSIOLOGICAL SALINE FOR AT LEAST 5 MINS WHILE
HOLDING EYELIDS OPEN. SEE MD. SALINE FLUSH IS TREATMENT OF CHOICE. IF NO SALINE
IS EASILY AVAIL, FLUSH W/WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINS. SEE MD. SKIN:WASH AFFECTED
AREA W/PLENTY OF SOAP & WATER. INHAL:REMOVE INDIV TO FRESH AIR. OTHER
MEASURES ARE USUALLY UNNEC. INGEST:NO EFTS REQ FIRST AID ARE EXPECTED. CALL MD
IMMED (FP N).
