5 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page 5 of 7 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET NOVADENT TAPETRIX PTFE TAPE Issue Date: January 14, 2007 PRODUCT: Novadent Cat #100, 106, 110, 112, 116, 118, 150, 175, Tapetrix PTFE Tapes SECTION 1: CHEMICAL PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION Distributor: Cognident-Novadent Emergency Telephone: 8777 Auburn Folsom Rd (888) Granite Bay, CA General Information: USA (916) Product Synonyms: FSN : FSN SECTION 2: COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Hazardous Ingredients CAS # Percentage Other Ingredients Polytetrafluoroethylene SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW Odorless, white, solid tape. As sold, this product presents no known health hazards. At temperatures above 535 degrees F, this polymer will break down and the fumes could cause a temporary flu-like illness. No smoking while handling this material. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: EYE: No harmful effects anticipated for product as sold. SKIN CONTACT: No harmful effects anticipated for product as sold. SKIN ABSORPTION: Skin absorption is unlikely due to physical properties of product. INGESTION: No harmful effects anticipated for product as sold. LD50 (PTFE resin):

6 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page 6 of mg/kg in rats. INHALATION: Inhalation is unlikely due to physical properties of product. CHRONIC EFFECTS/CARCINOGENICITY: PTFE is not listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA, or ACGIH as a carcinogen. No significant adverse effects anticipated. Repeated oral doses of the polymer resin yielded no toxic effects except for alteration in the number of circulating white blood cells after long-term dosing. Testing demonstrated no developmental toxicity in animals, and no genetic damage in animals or in bacterial cell cultures. (1) SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES INHALATION: Unlikely route of entry for product as sold. If exposed to fumes from overheating or combustion, move to fresh air. Consult a physician if symptoms persist. SKIN CONTACT: This product is not likely to be hazardous by skin contact, but if redness or itching develops, then cleansing the skin with water after use is advisable. EYE: Unlikely route of entry for product as sold. If mechanical irritation occurs flush eyes with plenty of water. Consult physician if symptoms persist. INGESTION: Unlikely route of entry for product as sold. Consult physician if necessary. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Inhaling fumes of decomposition products can induce temporary influenza-like symptoms which are described as polymer fume fever. These symptoms include fever, cough and malaise. SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES FLASH POINT: Does not flash AUTO-IGNITION TEMPERATURE: Not available METHOD: Open cup FLAMMABILITY LIMITS: EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water, foam, dry chemical or CO2 FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: PTFE will burn in an atmosphere of 95% oxygen when an ignition source is present. Hazardous gases/vapors produced in a fire are hydrogen fluoride (HF), carbonyl fluoride, perfluoroolefins, and carbon monoxide and low molecular weight fluorocarbons. FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear full protective equipment. Protect from hydrogen fluoride fumes, which react with water to form hydrofluoric acid. Wear neoprene gloves when handling refuse from a wire involving PTFE. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Sweep to avoid slipping hazard. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE

7 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page 7 of 7 Enforce no smoking rule in areas where PTFE is handled or stored. Wash hands and face after handling to avoid transfer of PTFE onto cigarettes and tobacco. SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS.PERSONAL PROTECTION No special personal protection or exposure controls are indicated for this product as sold except those mentioned in section 7. SECTION 9: PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Melting Point: 648 degrees F Water Solubility: Insoluble Odor: Appearance: White solid tape SPG: Greater than.5 SECTION 10: STABILITY & REACTIVITY Stability: Hazardous Polymerization: Incompatibility: Hazardous Decomposition Products: Particulate matter: Stable at normal temperatures and storage conditions. Will not occur. Reacts with molten alkali metals and interhalogen compounds. Above 535 degrees F, this product may evolve toxic gaseous materials such as hydrogen fluoride, carbonyl fluoride and perfluoroolefins. Evolved from overheating may cause polymer fume fever. OTHER INFORMATION: Waste Disposal: Discarded product is not a hazardous waste under RCRA, 40 CFR 261. Preferred options for disposal are recycling and landfill. Incinerate only if incinerator is capable of scrubbing out hydrogen fluoride and other acidic combustion products.
