2 2 4. FIRST AID MEASURES INHALATION If difficulties occur after dust has been inhaled, remove fresh air and seek medical attention. SKIN CONTACT Take immediately off contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash properly with soap and water. EYE CONTACT Keep eyelids well apart. Rinse with water for at least 15 minutes. Contact a doctor. INGESTION Wash mouth properly with water. Give two cupfuls of water to drink. Contact a doctor if bigger amounts have been swallowed. OTHER INFORMATION Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Treatment: treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital function) no know specific antidote. 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA Water spray, dry extinguishing media, foam. Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons: Carbon dioxide, water jet. FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS Additional information: Avoid whirling up the material/product because of danger of dust explosion. PROTECTION OF FIRE-FIGHTERS Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus. Further information: Contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of accordance with official regulations. The degree of risk is governed by burning substance and the fire conditions. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS Breathing protection required. ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS METHOD FOR CLEANING UP OR TAKING UP For large amounts: Contain with dust binding material and dispose of.

3 3 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Breathing must be protected when large quantities are decanted without local exhaust ventilation. Avoid the formation and deposition of dust. Protection against fire and explosion: The relevant fire protection measures should be noted. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. The product contains combustible polymers. STORAGE Further information on storage conditions: Keep container dry because product takes up the humidity of air. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION PREVENTIVE MEASUREMENTS A safe working level of 0,05 mg/m3 has been established for absorbent polymer dust (< 10 um diameter). RESPIRATORY PROTECTION Breathing protection if dust are formed. EYE PROTECTION Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (EN 166 ) HAND PROTECTION Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374), nitrile rubber (NBR)-0,4 mm coating thickness, chloroprene rubber (CR)- 0,5 mm coating thickness. SKIN PROTECTION Wear suitable protective clothing. 9.

4 4 Hygroscopy Hygroscopic 10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY STABILITY Hazardous reaction: The product is not a dust explosion risk as supplied, however the build-up of fine dust can lead to a risk of dusk explosions. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS No hazardous decomposition product if stored and handled as prescribed/indicated 11.TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Acute toxicity Exposure route Value/unit Animal species Time Method Oral/rat LD50 Derma/rat LD50 > 2000mg/kg > 2000 mg/kg Primary skin irritation/rabbit:non-irritant (OECD 404) Primary irritations of mucous membrane/rabbit: non-irritant (OECD 405) SENSITIZATION No sensitizing effect. Rat Calculated from the content of substances FURTHER INFORMATION A chronic (2-year) lifetime inhalation study in rats with absorber polymer dust <10 micronized diameter resulted in non-specific inflammatory response in the lungs followed by tumor development in some rats in the highest chronic exposure level of 0.8mg/m3. In the absence of chronic inflammation, tumours are not expected. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The statement was derived from products of similar composition. 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION ECO-TOXICITY Toxicity to fish: OECD Guide-line 203 static. Brachydanion rerio/lc50 (96h): > 100mg/l Aquatic invertebrates: OECD Guideline 202, part 1 static. Daphnia magna/ec50 (48h): > 100mg/l Aquatic plants: OECD Guideline 201.Desmodesmus subspicatus/ec50 (72h): > 100mg/l Nominal concentration. Microorganisms/Effect on activated sluge:the inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when introduced to biological treatment plants in appropriate low concentrations.

5 5 Soil living organisms: OECD Guideline 207. Eisenia foetida/lc50: > 1,000mg/kg. suitable effluent plts. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Add. remarks environm. Fate & pathway: due to the consistency of the product, dispersion into environment is impossible. Therefore no negative effects on the environment may be anticipated based on the presents state of knowledge. Other ecotoxicological advice: Do not release untreated into natural waters. The ecotoxic effect of the product has not been tested. The information on this was derived from products of similar structure or composition. PERSITENCE AND DEGRADABILITY Assessment: The product is not very soluble in water and can thus be removed from water mechanically in suitable effluent treatment plt. BIODEGRADABILITY 100% biodegradable 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS METHOD OF DISPOSAL Must be dumpet or incinerated in accordance with local regulations. Contaminated packaging: Uncontaminated packaging cab be re-used.pack that cannot be cleaned should be disposed of in the same manner as the contents.
