Box 2431 Gbr., Jakarta 10024, INDONESIA Telephone: /-2505 Telefax number: /-2515 Emergency information: International emergency number: Telephone: Hazard identification Classification of the substance and mixture: No need for classification according to GHS criteria for this product. Label elements and precautionary statement: The product does not require a hazard warning label in accordance with GHS criteria. Other hazards which do not result in classification: No specific dangers known, if the regulations/notes for storage and handling are considered. 3. Composition/information on ingredients Chemical nature additives

2 Page: 2/9 Hazardous ingredients HEXAMETHYLDISILOXANE Content (W/W): >= 0.1 % - < 0.25 % CAS Number: Flam. Liq.: Cat. 2 Eco acute: Cat. 1 Eco chronic: Cat First-Aid Measures General advice: Remove contaminated clothing. If inhaled: If difficulties occur after vapour/aerosol has been inhaled, remove to fresh air and seek medical attention. On skin contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water. On contact with eyes: Wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water with eyelids held open. On ingestion: Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water. Note to physician: Symptoms: No significant symptoms are expected due to the non-classification of the product. Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote. 5. Fire-Fighting Measures Suitable extinguishing media: water spray, dry powder, foam Unsuitable extinguishing media for safety reasons: water jet Specific hazards: harmful vapours Evolution of fumes/fog. The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire. Special protective equipment: Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus. Further information: The degree of risk is governed by the burning substance and the fire conditions. Contaminated extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with official regulations.

3 Page: 3/9 6. Accidental Release Measures Personal precautions: Use personal protective clothing. Breathing protection required. Environmental precautions: Contain contaminated water/firefighting water. Do not discharge into drains/surface waters/groundwater. Methods for cleaning up or taking up: For large amounts: Pump off product. For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material. Dispose of absorbed material in accordance with regulations. 7. Handling and Storage Handling No special measures necessary provided product is used correctly. Protection against fire and explosion: Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Storage Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool place. Keep only in the original container. Segregate from foodstuffs. 8. Exposure controls and personal protection Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection: Suitable respiratory protection for higher concentrations or long-term effect: Gas filter for gases/vapours of organic compounds (boiling point >65 C, e. g. EN Type A) Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves Suitable materials short-term contact and/or splashes (recommended: At least protective index 2, corresponding > 30 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374) butyl rubber (butyl) mm coating thickness nitrile rubber (NBR) mm coating thickness Supplementary note: The specifications are based on tests, literature data and information of glove manufacturers or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing. Manufacturer's directions for use should be observed because of great diversity of types. Eye protection: Safety glasses with side-shields.

4 Page: 4/9 General safety and hygiene measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wearing of closed work clothing is recommended. 9. Physical and Chemical Properties Form: Colour: Odour: Odour threshold: ph value: liquid colourless to yellowish characteristic Melting point: onset of boiling: > 200 C (1,013 hpa) Flash point: 101 C Evaporation rate: Flammability (solid/gas): does not ignite Lower explosion limit: As a result of our experience with this product and our knowledge of its composition we do not expect any hazard as long as the product is used appropriately and in accordance with the intended use. Upper explosion limit: As a result of our experience with this product and our knowledge of its composition we do not expect any hazard as long as the product is used appropriately and in accordance with the intended use. Ignition temperature: Thermal decomposition: C, 13 kj/kg (DSC (DIN 51007)) Self ignition: not self-igniting Explosion hazard: not explosive Fire promoting properties: not fire-propagating Vapour pressure: Density: 0.99 g/cm3 (20 C) Relative density: 0.99 (20 C)
