EYE PROTECTION GUIDELINES:
SKIN PROTECTION GUIDELINES
Safety glasses with side shields or chemical splash goggles.
Wear liquid-proof, chemical resistant gloves (nitrile-butyl rubber, neoprene,
butyl rubber or natural rubber) and full body-covering clothing
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION GUIDELINES When ventilation cannot be made adequate enough to keep exposures
below established limits, use a NIOSH approved respirator with an organic vapor cartridge, or organic vapor cartridge + P100 particulate filter,
depending on specific workplace conditions. Consult with your respirator and cartridge supplier to ensure proper selection of respirator and
cartridge based on ingredients listed in Section 3 and specific workplace conditions. Use and select a respirator according the guidelines
established in OSHA 19’10.134 or other applicable respiratory protection standard.

STABILITYAND REACTIVITY
STABILITY Product is stable at normal temperatures and pressures.
REACTIVITY/HAZARDOUS REACTIONS Product will not react by itsetf. A mass of more than one pound of product
mixed with an aliphatic amine will cause irreversible polymerization with significant heat buildup. Strong acids, bases, amines and mercaptans can
cause polymerization.
External heating or self-heating could result in rapid temperature increase and pressure build up. lf such a condition were to occur in a drum, the
drum could expand and rupture violently.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:
DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS
uncontrolled exothermic reactions or when otherwise heated to decomposition.
Avoid excessive heat.
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and phenolics may be produced during

SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE / IRRITATION:. Causes serious eye irritation. Category 2A.
RESPIRATORY SENSITIZATION:………………… ……… Not classified. Does not meet criteria for respiratory sensitizer
Repeated exposure to high vapor concentrations may cause irrltation of pre-existing lung allergies and increase the chance of
developing allergy symptoms to this product.
SKIN SENSITIZATION:…………… …….. May cause allergic skin reaction. Category 1.
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY:…. Not classified. Diglycidyl ether bisphenol-A, in animal studies, has been
shown not to interfere with reproduction. Diglycidyl ether bisphenol-A did not cause birth defects or other adverse effects on the fetus when
pregnant rabbits were exposed by skin contact, the most likely route of exposure, or when pregnant rats or rabbits were exposed orally.

were negative. ln vitro mutagenicity tests were negative in some cases and positive in others.
equal to 0.’l% is identified as a carcinogen or potential carcinogen by OSHA, NTP or IARC.
Many studies have been conducted to assess the potential carcinogenicity of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A. Although some weak evidence of
carcinogenicity has been reported in animals, when all of the data are considered, the weight of evidence does not show that Diglycidyl ether
bisphenol-A is carcinogenic. lndeed, the most recent review of the available data by the lnternational Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has
concluded that Diglycidyl ether bisphenol-A is not classified as a carcinogen.
Epichlorohydrin, an impurity in this product (<5 ppm) has been reported to produce cancer in laboratory animals and to produce mutagenic
changes in bacteria and cultured human cells. lt has been established by the lnternational Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as a probable
human carcinogen (Group 2A) based on the following conclusions: human evidence -
inadequate; animal evidence -
sufficient. lt has been
classified as an anticipated human carcinogen by the National Toxicology Program (NTP). Note: lt is unlikely that normal use of this product
would result in measurable exposure concentrations to this substance.
STOT (Single Exposure): Not classified. Does not meet STOT SE criteria.
STOT (Repeated Exposure): Not classified. Does not meet STOT RE criteria.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Not classified. Does not meet aspiration toxicity criteria.
