(%w/w) CAS: EINECS/ELINICS REACH Registration # Blend of Waxes Exempt - According to Regulation EU Directive 67/548EEC and 199/45/EC: Chemical Name Conc. (%w/w) CAS: EINECS/ELINICS REACH Registration # Blend of Waxes Exempt - Composition Comment: All the commercial components of this material are on the US EPA s Toxic Substances Control Act Chemical Substance Inventory. Some manufacturing impurities may not appear on the TSCA Inventory List. TSCA Inventory rules do not require listings for chemicals that are unintentionally present as impurities.

2 Section 4 First Aid Measures Inhalation: Not expected to be a problem under normal conditions of use. When finely divided, inhalation of dust may cause irritation of mucous membrane and respiratory tract. OSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL-TWA) and ACGIH threshold limit value (TLV-TWA) for respirable dust: 5 mg/m3. Total nuisance dust OSHA PEL- TWA: 15 mg/m3; total dust ACGIH TLV-TA: 10 mg/m3. If heated to decomposition, fumes generated may result in respiratory irritation. ACGIH exposure limit for paraffin wax fume is a TLV-TWA of 2 mg/m3. Skin and Eye Contact: Ingestion: Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Not expected to be a problem under normal conditions of use. May produce mild irritation on prolonged contact with skin or eyes. Not expected to be absorbed through the skin in significant quantities. The cool solid material is not expected to cause skin or eye irritation; however, contact with molten material may result in thermal burns. May be harmful if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal disturbances. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Launder clothing before reuse. If in eyes, irrigate with flowing water immediately and continuously for fifteen minutes. Consult a physician. If inhaled, remove to fresh air and administer oxygen if necessary. If ingested, consult a physician. If molten polymer gets on skin, cool rapidly with cold water. Do not attempt to peel polymer from skin. Obtain medical attention for thermal burns. Section 5 Fire Fighting Measures Flammable Properties: Flash Point: Flash Point Method: Autoignition Temperature: Upper Flame Limit (Volume % in air): Lower Flame Limit (Volume % in air): Flame Propagation Rate (Solids): OSHA Flammability Class: Extinguishing Media: Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: >445 F (>230 C) Open Cup known. Not applicable Not applicable Unknown Combustible solid. Carbon dioxide, dry chemical or fine water spray. Avoid water stream on molten burning material as it may scatter and spread the fire. Fire point >313 C. Melts in proximity to fires causing slippery floors and stairs. Special Firefighting Precautions/Instructions: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus approved by NIOSH. Watch footing on floors and stairs because of possible melting and spreading of material. Use spray to keep containers cool Section 6 Accidental Release Measures In Case of Spill or Other Release: (Always wear recommended personal protective equipment.) Remove ignition sources from the powdered grades. Keep away from heat or flame. Sweep up with a minimum of dusting. Collect in container, e.g., fiberboard drum or carton. Spills and releases may have to be reported to Federal and/or local authorities. See the Regulatory Information section (#15) regarding reporting requirements. Section 7 Handling and Storage Normal Handling: (Always wear recommended personal protective equipment.) Avoid breathing fumes from heating operations. Avoid spillage which can cause very slippery conditions on floors. Use good personal hygiene and housekeeping. Storage Recommendations: Avoid excessive heat. Do not store near strong oxidizing agents.

3 Section 8 Exposure Controls / Personal Protection Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation during heating processes, or if dusty conditions prevail when handling powdered materials. For storage and ordinary handling, general ventilation is adequate. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Skin Protection: Protective garments, ie, gloves with long sleeves, when handling molten material. Eye Protection: Chemical goggles around molten material and in dusty conditions. Respiratory Protection: Use a NIOSH approved dust respirator with powdered grades if dusty conditions prevail. During melting or conveying in molten state, use an organic vapor respirator. Additional Recommendations: Not generally required Exposure Controls/Personal Protection (continued) EXPOSURE GUIDELINES: (Guidelines exist for the following ingredients) Ingredient Name ACGIH TLV OSHA PEL Other Limit No Ingredients listed in this section Other exposure limits for the potential decomposition products are as follows: Powdered forms may generate nuisance particulates upon handling: ACGIH TLV = 10 mg/m³ of total particulates. Section 9 Physical and Chemical Properties Appearance: white flake or powder. Physical State: Solid Odor: Characteristic waxy odor. Specific Gravity: (Water = 1.0) Solubility in Water:(Weight %) Negligible. ph: Boiling Point: Melting Range: 82 C to 94 C Vapor Pressure: Vapor Density: (Air = 1.0) Evaporation Rate: Compared to: % Volatiles: Flash Point: >445 F (>230 C) (Flash point method and additional flammability data are found in section 5.) Section 10 Stability and Reactivity Normally Stable? (Conditions to Avoid) Stable at normal conditions. Incompatibilities: Strong oxidizing agents. Hazardous Decomposition Products: Depending on conditions of fire, CO, CO2, and combustible gases may be generated. Hazardous Polymerization? Will not occur. Section 11 - Toxicological Information Immediate (Acute) Effects: Acute oral toxicity in rats: LD50 > 2000 mg/kg. Delayed (Subchronic & Chronic) Effects: Not determined. Other Data: No other data developed.
