SECTION 3 – COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
Any concentration shown as a range is to protect confidentially or is due to batch variation.
There are no additional ingredients, present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the concentrations
applicable, are classified as hazardous to health or the enviroment and hence require reporting in this section.
Occupational exposure limits, if available, are listed in Section 8.
SECTION 4 – FIRST AID MEASURES
Relevant routes of exposure
Remove from area to fresh air. If symptoms persist, contact a poison control center,
emergency room, or a physician for treatment information.
Remove contact lens and pour a gentle stream of warm water through the affected area
for 15 minutes. Do not rub or scratch eyes. If irritation persists, contact a poison
control center, emergency room, or physician as further treatment may be necessary.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Run cold water over the affected ares for 15
minutes with mild soap, Do not use warm water. DO NOT rub or scratch affected area.
If irritation persists or glass fiber becomes embedded, seek medical attention.
Gently wipe or rinse the inside of the mouth with water. Sips of water can be given. Never
give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Contact a poison control center,
emergency room, or physician for treatment information.
SECTION 5 – FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide and water fog.
None known
Material is not an electrical conductor and may accumulate a static charge.
Fiberglass will not burn, but smoking of the product may occur at approximately 400-500 deg.F
(approximately 200-260 deg C) due to decomposition of the surface binder. Surface binders
may decompose in a fire situation and release carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and water.
Additionally, there are many chemicals that can evolve during any partial decomposition of
chemical products. The amounts or identities cannot be predicted and can differ in each case.
Fiberglass will not support combustion, but in a sustained fire, proper protection such as a
self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full firefighting gear should be worn.Suitable Extinguishing Media:

SECTION 6 – ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Use personal protection equipment recommended in Section 8.
No special precautions are needed in case of a release or spill.
This material will settle out of the air. Prevent from spreading by covering.
Use an industrial vacuum cleaner with a high efficiency filter to clean up dust
Sweep or gather up material and place in proper container for disposal or recovery.
Use vacuuming or wet sweeping methods instead of dry sweeping.
SECTION 7 – HANDLING AND STORAGE
Avoid dust formation, do not breath dust and wear personal protective equipment.
Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled,
stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating drinking
and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating
areas. See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures.
Store at or below 25 degrees Celsius (77*F) and relative humidity about 65% for optimum
performance. Material is not an electrical conductor, and may accumulate static charge.
SECTION 8 – EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure Limits:
8-hour Time Weighted Average (TWA); 15-minute Short-Term Exposure Limit (STEL)
OSHA: 15mg/m3 TWA 5mg/m3 TWA (respirable dust) 15mg/m3 TWA (total dust)
ACGIH TLV: TWA: 1f/cc Form: Continuous filament glass fibers
TWA: 5mg/m3, Inhalable form: Continuous filament glass fibers
TWA: 3mg/m3 Form: Respirable
TWA: 10mg/m3 Form: Total dust
ACGIH TLV US 6/13: TWA: 5mg/m3 8 hours, Form: Inhalable fraction
TWA: 1f/cc 8 hours. Form: Respirable fibers: length greater than 5uM; aspect ratio equal to or greater than
3:1 as determined by the membrane filter method at 400-450x magnification(4-mm objective) phase contrast
illumination.
Engineering Controls:Use local exhaust or general room/dilution ventilation sufficient to maintain employee
exposure below permissible exposure limits.
Eye Protection: Standard safety glasses with side shields.
Skin Protection: Protective gloves and long sleeved shirt and long pants.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands before and after breaks. Wear clean, body-covering clothing. Good personal hygiene and the use
of barrier creams, caps, protective gloves, cotton coveralls or long sleeved loose fitting clothing will maximize
comfort. Vacuum equipment may be used to remove fibers from clothes. Work clothing should be laundered
separately form other clothing before reuse.
Respiratory Protection: If dust is generated and ventilation is inadequate, use respirator that will protect against dust/mist.
Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product
and the safe working limits of the selected respirator.

V2 Fiberglass Fabrics Safety Data Sheet
Delayed and immediate effects and chronic effects of short and long term exposure
SUMMARY: There are no known health effects from the long term use or contact, with nonrespirable continuous
filament fibers. As manufactured, the glass fibers in this product are nonrespirable. Nonrespirable fibers cannot reach the
deep lung because they have a diameter of greater than 3.5 micrometers. Fibers of this diameter cannot
penetrate the narrow, bending passages of the human respiratory tract to reach the lower regions of the lung
and thus, have no possibility of causing serious pulmonary damage. Instead, they deposit on the surface of the
upper respiratory tract, nose, or pharynx. These fibers are then cleared through normal physiological
mechanisms.
Chopped, crushed, or severely mechanically processed fiber glass may contain a very small amount of
respirable fibers that could reach the deep lung. The measured airborne concentration of these respirable fibers
in areas where severe processing of fiberglass occurred has been shown to be extremely low and well below the
TLV. Repeated or prolonged exposure to respirable glass fibers may cause fibrosis, lung cancer and
mesolthelioma. PPG fiber glass in the form supplied, does not contain respirable fibers.
Animal Study: In 2000, the Institute of Occupational Medicine (IOM) in Scotland published the results of a long
term inhalation study in animals exposed to special application E-glass continuous filament respirable
fibers. Animals were exposed to a very high concentration of these respirable fibers (1022 fibers/cc for 5 hours/day,
7 days/week for 52 weeks). Exposure to these microfibers resulted in the development of fibrosis, lung cancer
and mesothelioma.
Epidemiology Studies: Two major studies in the US (performed by the University of Pittsburgh) and Europe
(performed by the International Agency for Research on Cancer) showed no increase in lung cancer or respiratory
disease among people working in fiber glass production facilities. An additional smaller study performed in Canada
also did not show an association between exposure of workers to fiber glass and respiratory cancer.
