Health Hazard Data Routes of Entry: Inhalation, Ingestion, Eyes, Skin. Health Hazards: 1. Styrene-Butyl Acrylate Copolymer Subcutaneous implantation of polymeric styrene powder in rats has induced tumors at the site of implantation. 2. Carbon black (Group 2B "Possible Carcinogen"; IARC) Overexposure to carbon black is associated with causing irritation, conjunctivitis, and cornealhypoplasia of the eyes; minor irritation and eczema of the skin; and throatirritation and bronchitis. Long-term inhalation exposure may be associated with causing lung cancer. 3. Paraffin Wax (Group 3 "Not Classifiable"; IARC) May cause eye, skin, respiratory, and digentive tract irritation. Paraffin is an equivocal tumorgenic agent by RTECS criteria. 4. Amorphous Fumed Silica (Group 3 "Not Classifiable"; IARC) Overexposure to amorphous silica has been associated with causing irritation of the lungs and pneumoconiosis. Long-term inhalation exposure may be associated with producing tumors in laboratory animals. Reactivity Data Stability: Stable Polymerization: Will not occur. Hazardous Decomposition Products: Thermal decomposition may result in release of oxides of carbon and nitrogen. Temperature: Do not expose to temperatures above 200°C (392°F). Incompatibility: Avoid exposure to strong oxidizers. ¯50 Spill Cleanup and Disposal Spill Cleanup Small Spills 1. Remove sources of ignition. 2. Clean up spill with wet cloth. Large Spills 1. Remove sources of ignition. 2. Wear protective gear: respirator, rubber gloves, goggles (see below) 3. Clean up spill with scoop, being careful not to generate a lot of dust. Waste Disposal: Follow appropriate federal, state and local regulations. Safe Handling and Use Respiratory Protection: Not normally required. For large spills, use NIOSH-approved full face-piece respirator with HEPA cartridge during cleanup. Protective Gloves and/or Eye Protection: Not normally required. For large spills, use rubber gloves and chemical worker's goggles during cleanup. Ventilation: Outside of normal ventilation, not normally required. Other Protective Equipment and/or Hygienic Practices: None Special Precautions Precautions for Handling or Storage: Protect from high heat. Avoid making dust.
