FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Non flammable product (flash point is greater than 100°C (CC)). If product is involved in fire extinguish with dry powder, foam or carbon dioxide. Trace amounts of toxic fumes may be released on incineration and the use of breathing apparatus is recommended. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Ventilate area. For small spills wipe up with paper towel and place in container for disposal. For large spills absorb onto inert absorbent material and place in sealed container for disposal. Wash spillage site thoroughly with soap and water or detergent solution. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling Loctite applicators are recommended to minimise skin contact, particularly where workers are handling sharp or threaded parts which might result in microlaceration of sensitive areas of the skin. Prolonged or repeated skin contact should be avoided to minimise any risk of sensitisation. Storage Store in original containers at 8°C-21°C and do not return residual materials to containers as contamination may reduce the shelf life of the bulk product. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION In circumstances where there is a potential for prolonged or repeated skin contact, the use of disposable gloves (polyethylene, natural rubber or equivalent ester-resistant material) is recommended. Use of Loctite applicator equipment is recommended. 9.

PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Explosion Limits (%) 10. N/A STABILITY AND REACTIVITY Polymerisation may occur after some time in the absence of air and/or the presence of a metal; However, the product is adequately stabilised to ensure that premature polymerisation does not occur under normal conditions of use. Non reactive to water. Non reactive to oxidising agents except for peroxides. 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Inhalation Due to the low volatility of the product there are no hazards associated with inhalation under normal conditions of use. Skin Acute dermal LD50 (rabbit) is estimated to be greater than 2000mg/kg. Although it is not a common sensitizer there may be a risk of sensitization on prolonged or repeated contact with damaged skin. Eyes May cause mild irritation to the eyes. Ingestion This product is considered to be of low toxicity having an acute oral LD50 (rat) >5000mg/kg by analogy to other similar products. 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Keep away from drains and open waters. Does not contain substances listed on the Montreal protocol. Biodegradable product of low ecotoxicity. Biological and Chemical Oxygen Demands (BOD and COD) of cured Loctite products are insignificant. In the cured state contribution of this product to Environmental Hazards is insignificant in comparison to articles in which it is used. Precautions required with respect to Environmental Hazards of articles in which this product is used should be considered. 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS After use, tubes, cartons and bottles containing residual product should be disposed of as "chemically contaminated waste" in an authorised legal land fill site or incinerated. Dispose of in accordance with local and national regulations. Contribution of this product to waste is very insignificant in comparison to article in which it is used.
