Telephone Number: (812) 944-5055 

Contact Summaiy:

:V.. EPAAIRDOCKgT v 

Mr. Short was contacted to verify the content of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) in the 

resins used by Cameo Marble. Mr. Short explained that Cameo Marble uses only one resin, 

which contains 29 percent styrene by *»eight and no other HAP monomer. After receiving the 

resin from the suppUer, Cameo Marble does not add any additional HAP to the resin. 

The 1993 industry survey indicated diat Cameo Marble uses hat wax in -their polymer 

casting process. Mr. Short explained that this wax does not serve as a vapor suppressant, but it is 

used as a mold release agent 

When auked about Cameo's mixing process, Mr. Short indicated that mixing for the 

polymer casting process is done in open containers.

WE DO INDEED USE ONLY ONE RESIN AT A TIME FOR OUR 

PRODUCTION PROCESS. 

IN 1993 WHEN WE COMPLETED THE SURVEY WE USED 

32113-00-00 RESIN. WE HAD PRODUCTION PROBLEMS 

WITH THIS RESIN. WE HAVE REMAINED WITH THE SAME 

MANUFACTURER OF RESIN, BUT WE HAVE SWITCHED 

SEVERAL TIMES TRYING TO CORRECT VARIOUS 

PRODUCTION PROBLEMS. WE HAVE USED 32144-25 AND 

32-130-37 RESIN SINCE 1993. WE PRESENTLY USE 32144-28. 

AS YOU CAN SEE THE PRESENT STYRENE CONTENT IS 30%. 

I DONT HAVE THE MSDS ON THE 1993 RESIN AS WE HAVE 

REPLACED IT WITH A NEWER MSDS EACH TIME WE SWITCHENCLOSED ARE THREE MSDS FOR THE OTHER RESINS, INCLUDING 

THE ONE WE PRESENTLY USE 32144-28.
