Hazards Identification
| Threshold Limit Value (TLV): | N.AP. |
| Emergency Overview: | Product is relatively benign |
| Ingestion: | Product has a low order of acute oral toxicity |
| Route of Exposure: | |
| Inhalation: | Fine particles may produce airway irritation |
| Ingestion: | No effect anticipated |
| Skin Contact: | Prolonged contact with particles may produce mild irritation. |
| Eye Contact: | Fine particles may cause slight mechanical irritation |
| Effects of Exposure: | |
| Inhalation: | LC 50 not determined for foam dust |
| Ingestion: | Products has a low order of acute oral toxicity |
| Skin Contact: | Harmless |
| Eye Contact: | Fine particles may cause slight mechanical irritation |
| Effects of Exposure: | |
| Acute: | None known |
| Chronic: | Animal studies indicate that chronic inhalation of phenolic-dust is comparable with any other type of dust. |
First AID Measures
| Inhalation: | Contact a physician if coughing, discomfort or air passage obstruction occurs due to inhalation of foam dust. If breathing difficulties, dizziness or light headaches occur when working in dusty areas, victim should seek air free of dust. If victim experiences continued breathing difficulties, administer oxygen until medical assistance can be rendered. If breathing stops, begin artificial respiration and seek immediate medical attention. | ||
| Skin Contact: | Wipe material from skin. Wash with soap and water. Clean contaminated clothing before reuse. | ||
| Ingestion: | Wash out mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical advice and/or attention. | ||
| Eye Contact: | Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes or removes any particle. Consult a physician if irritation persists. | ||
Fire Fighting Measures
Phenolic foam is difficult to ignite and tends to not support combustion when the flame source is removed.
| Flashpoint: | Not Applicable |
| Flammability Limits: | Not Applicable |
| Autoignition Temperature: | Not Determined |
| Hazardous Combustion Products: | Primarily carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide will be produced. Traces of other organic compounds may be produced. |
Special Fire-Fighting Procedures
Evacuate non-emergency
personnel to a safe area. Fire-fighters should use self-contained breathing
apparatus. Avoid breathing in smoke, fumes and decomposition products. Use
waterspray to drench smouldering foam. Extinguishing media use water, Foam, CO2
or dry chemical.
Accidental Release Measures
| Land Spill: | Material is a solid pick-up and handles as any other inert solid material. |
| Water Spill: | Material is lighter compared to water. The phenolic foam floats. Collect floating pieces and handle as any other inert solid material. |
Handling and Storage
Store in a dry area, protect from abuse and follow all MSDS and label warnings. Indefinite with respect to physical properties; however, after some weeks slight color changes of exposed surface may be noticed, due to exposure to ultraviolet light.
Cured Phenolic blocks contain less than 0.1% free Formaldehyde or Phenol, emission testing under static and dynamic conditions at high temperature and humidity (120°F, 90% R.H) produced formaldehyde emissions of less than 0.2 PPM.
Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
| Engineering Controls: | None should be required in an area with free air flow. Positive ventilation should be used in confined spaces if dust becomes evident. |
Personal Protection
| Respirator: | Respirators are to be used by properly trained personnel only. Wear an appropriate and properly fitted respirator when cutting, grinding or milling the phenolic foam. |
| Protective Clothing: | Wear safety glasses, face shields or goggles. The use of gloves (polyvinyl or latex) is recommended. For industrial clothes, use clothes made of polyester fibres. |
Do not wear contact lens without proper eye protection when using phenolic foam.
