EBECRYL® 5849 radiation curing resin SDS: 0058331 Date Prepared: 01/27/2015 Page 4 of 10

Special Handling Statements: Contact with this material may not be apparent until 24-48 hours after the

exposure. Therefore, good personal hygiene, such as washing immediately with soap and water after handling is

highly recommended. This is a research and development (R&D) sample. The chemical, physical, and

toxicological properties of this material have not been fully investigated. Its handling or use may be hazardous. It

may only be used for R&D purposes under the supervision of technically qualified individuals. Maintain good

housekeeping to control dust accumulations. Provide good ventilation of working area (local exhaust ventilation if

necessary). During processing and handling of the product, comply with the indicative occupational exposure limit

values.

STORAGE

Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Prevent unauthorised

access. Storage in stainless steel, amber glass, amber polyethylene or baked phenolic lined container. Keep

containers tightly closed. Keep away from heat. Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated place and keep container tightly

closed. Keep away from sources of ignition - refrain from smoking. Take precautionary measures against electrostatic

loading - earthing necessary during loading operations.

Storage Temperature: Store at <= 25 - 40 °C 39.2 - 104 °F

Reason: Quality.

_____________________________________________________________________________

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Engineering Measures:

Utilize a closed system process where feasible. Where this material is not used in a closed system, good enclosure

and local exhaust ventilation should be provided to control exposure. Engineering controls are not usually necessary if

good hygiene practices are followed.

Respiratory Protection:

For operations where inhalation exposure can occur use an approved respirator. Recommendations are listed below.

Other protective respiratory equipment may be used based on user's own risk assessment. Recommended

respirators include those certified by NIOSH (U.S.) or CEN (EU). For operations where inhalation exposure can occur,

use an approved respirator recommended by an industrial hygienist after an evaluation of the operation. Where

inhalation exposure cannot occur, no respiratory protection is required.

Recommended respirators include those certified by NIOSH.

Recommended:

Full Face Mask with organic vapor cartridge, Type A filter (BP >65°C)

Eye Protection:

Prevent eye and skin contact. Provide eye wash fountain and safety shower in close proximity to points of potential

exposure. Wear eye/face protection such as chemical splash proof goggles or face shield.

Skin Protection:

Prevent contamination of skin or clothing when removing protective equipment. Wear impermeable gloves and

impervious protective clothing. Avoid skin contact. Wear impermeable gloves.

Hand Protection:

Wear protective gloves. Recommendations are listed below. Other protective materials may be used based on user's

own risk assessment. Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin, they should however not be

applied once exposure has occurred. Replace gloves immediately when torn or any change in appearance

(dimension, color, flexibility etc.) is noticed. Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin, they

should however not be applied once exposure has occurred. Wear impermeable gloves.

Gloves for short term exposure:

Laminated multilayer gloves, break through time: > 60 min

Nitrile rubber (NBR), thickness: > 0.56 mm, break through time: < 60 min

The chemical resistance depends on the type of product and amount of product on the glove. Therefore gloves need

to be changed when in contact with chemicals.
EBECRYL® 5849 radiation curing resin SDS: 0058331 Date Prepared: 01/27/2015 Page 5 of 10

Not suitable gloves:

Latex gloves

Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature, abrasion) the practical usage of a chemical protective glove in practice

may be much shorter than the permeation time determined through testing.

Additional Advice:

Food, beverages, and tobacco products should not be carried, stored, or consumed where this material is in use.

Before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash face and hands thoroughly with soap and water.

The information on RCRA waste classification and disposal methodology provided below applies only to the product,

as supplied. If the material has been altered or contaminated, or it has exceeded its recommended shelf life, the

guidance may be inapplicable. Hazardous waste classification under federal regulations (40 CFR Part 261 et seq) is

dependent upon whether a material is a RCRA "listed hazardous waste" or has any of the four RCRA "hazardous

waste characteristics." Refer to 40 CFR Part 261.33 to determine if a given material to be disposed of is a RCRA

"listed hazardous waste"; information contained in Section 15 of this MSDS is not intended to indicate if the product is

a "listed hazardous waste." RCRA Hazardous Waste Characteristics: There are four characteristics defined in 40

CFR Section 261.21-61.24: Ignitability, Corrosivity, Reactivity, and Toxicity. To determine Ignitability, see Section 9

of this MSDS (flash point). For Corrosivity, see Sections 9 and 14 (pH and DOT corrosivity). For Reactivity, see

Section 10 (incompatible materials). For Toxicity, see Section 3 (composition). Federal regulations are subject to

change. State and local requirements, which may differ from or be more stringent than the federal regulations, may

also apply to the classification of the material if it is to be disposed. The Company encourages the recycle, recovery

and reuse of materials, where permitted, as an alternate to disposal as a waste. The Company recommends that

organic materials classified as RCRA hazardous wastes be disposed of by thermal treatment or incineration at EPA

approved facilities. The Company has provided the foregoing for information only; the person generating the waste is

responsible for determining the waste classification and disposal method.
