SECTION 1: CHEMICAL PRODUCT & COMPANY IDENTIFICATION 

TRADE NAME: (CBI) 

CHEMICAL FAMILY: Fluoroalkyl acrylate copolymer (solution) 

Manufacturer/Supplier: (CBI) 

PHONE: (CBI) 

FAX: (CBI) 

SECTION 2: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: (CBI) 

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: May cause eye, skin and respiratory irritation. May be harmful if swallowed. 

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Primary hazard occurs in the event of high temperature exposure, whether by fire or 

processing. At temperature above 200 °C (392 °F), inhaling thermal decomposition 

products could result in chills, headaches, nausea, breathing discomfort, cough or sore 

throat. These symptoms generally disappear within 24 - 48 hours. Above 500 °C (930 °F), 

hydrogen fluoride, perfluoroisobutylene and carbonyl fluoride are produced; inhalation 

under these conditions may result in serious lung irritation. 

HMIS RATINGS: Health : 3 

 Flammability : 3 

 Reactivity : 0

*All ingredients in quantities > 1% (0.1% for carcinogens or teratogens) that are potentially hazardous per OSHA definitions. 

OSHA PEL’s may vary from state to state. 

SECTION 4. FIRST AID PROCEDURES 

EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with large amounts of water for 10 - 15 minutes. If irritation occurs, get 

medical attention. 

SKIN CONTACT: Wash affected area with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. 

INGESTION: Consult a physician immediately. 

INHALATION: Leave the contaminated area and seek fresh air. If breathing is difficult, contact a physician. If 

decomposition gases are inhaled, move to fresh air and get medical attention. 

NOTE TO PHYSICIANS: In the event of inhalation of gases generated by high temperature decomposition of the product, 

treat for hydrogen fluoride inhalation. Excessive exposure to thermal degradation products could

result in delayed pulmonary edema in some cases, and on very high exposure, damage to the liver 

and kidneys. 

SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES 

FLASH POINT (METHOD USED): 22 °C (72 °F) 

FLAMMABLE LIMITS: LEL: 1.2 vol% UEL: 7.6 vol% 

IGNITION TEMPERATURE: 370.0 °C (698 °F) 

HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Toxic and corrosive products, including Hydrofluoric Acid, 

 Perfluoroisobutylene, and Carbonyl Fluoride may be formed by at very high 

temperatures. 

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: CO2 or dry chemical. Do not use water. 

PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Use NIOSH/MSHA approved self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and 

full bunker gear. 

SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 

Ensure cleanup is done only by trained personnel wearing appropriate personal protective equipment. 

Ventilate area and cover with absorbent material. 

Liquids must be cleaned up promptly before they dry. Collect the spilled material in a container and seal. 

Spilled material is a slipping hazard. 

Runoff from fire fighting efforts involving this material may contain hydrofluoric acid. Depending on the concentration, this 

should be contained and treated prior to discharge. 

SECTION 7. HANDLING & STORAGE 

HANDLING: 

Avoid contact with skin or eyes. Do not breathe vapor or spray. 

Use only in well ventilated areas. 

Safety showers and eyewashes should be available in the work area. 

Ensure good ventilation in the workplace. Close containers after each use. 

Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Wash clothing after use. 

Keep away from heat, sparks and ignition sources. Protect against electrostatic charges. 

Electrically ground all equipment when handling this product and use only non-sparking tools. 

If smoking tobacco becomes contaminated by this material, exposure to toxic gases through inhalation can occur. 

Therefore, do not smoke in the work areas and wash hands and face after handling in order to avoid transfer of the 

material onto smoking materials. 

STORAGE: 

Do not store with flammable materials, such as solvents or oils. 

Do not allow material to be exposed to excessive heat. 

Store material at 0 °C (32 °F) to 40 °C (104 °F) in a dry place. 

Keep material away from sparks and flames. 

Keep container tightly closed when not in use.

SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS & PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT 

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Appropriate respiratory protection required when hand spray apparatus is used to 

apply this material. If material is heated above 200 °C, use a positive pressure airsupplied respirator or self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). 

EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses with side shields or goggles. 

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: When there is potential for skin contact, wear chemical resistant gloves, pants and 

 jacket. 

VENTILATION: Use local exhaust ventilation. 

OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Safety shower and eyewash station should be accessible in the work area.

SECTION 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION 

ACUTE EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE 

EYE CONTACT: May cause eye irritation

INGESTION: Not evaluated

INHALATION: May cause respiratory irritation. Normally, inhalation problems are not expected (unless sprayed 

 or heated). When thermally decomposed, decomposition products of this fluoropolymer may 

 cause polymer fume fever. 

CHRONIC EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE: No data available 

CARCINOGENICITY: None of the components in this material is listed by NTP or OSHA. 

OTHER POTENTIAL HAZARDS (OF THE PURE MATERIALS): 

Excessive exposure to thermal degradation products could result in delayed pulmonary edema in some cases, and on very 

high exposure, damage to the liver and kidneys. These substances may include: perfluoroisobutylene (TLV = 10 ppb), 

carbonyl fluoride (TLV = 2 ppm TWA, 5 ppm STEL), hydrogen fluoride (TLV = 3 ppm, Ceiling).
