## 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING Precautionary Measures: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor. Keep away from heat and flame. Use with adequate ventilation. Keep cont ainer closed. Wash thoroughly after handling. Special Handling Statements: Provide good ventilation of working area (local exhaust ventilation if necessary). During processing and handling of the product, comply with t he indicative occupational exposure limit values. STORAGE Areas containing this material should have fire safe practices and electrical equipment in accordance with applicable regulations and/or guidelines. Standards are primarily based on the material`s flas hpoint, but may also take into account properties such as miscibility with water or toxici ty. All local and national regulations should be followed. In the Americas, National Fire Protection Association (NF PA) 30: Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code, is a widely used standard. NFPA 30 establishes storage conditions for the following classes of materials: Class I Flammable Liquids, Flashpoint <37.8 °C. Class II Combustible Liquids, 37.8 °C < Flashpoint <60 °C. Class IIIa Combustible Liquids, 60 °C < Flashpoint < 93 °C. Class IIIb Combustible Liquids, Flashpoint> 93 °C. 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 l oading operations. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Storage Temperature: Store at 0 - 25 °C 32 - 77 °F Reason: Quality.

## 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Measures: Where this material is not used in a closed system, good enclosure and local exhaust ventilation should be provided to control exposure. Respiratory Protection: Where exposures are below the estab lished exposure limit, no respiratory prot ection is required. Where exposures exceed the established exposure limit, us e respiratory protection recommended for the material and level of exposure. Eye Protection: Wear eye/face protection such as chemic al splash proof goggles or face shield. Skin Protection: Avoid skin contact. Wear impermeable gloves and suitable prot ective clothing. Since this product is absorbed through the skin, care must be taken to prevent ski n contact and contamination of clothing. Additional Advice: Food, beverages, and tobacco products should not be carried, stored, or consumed where this ma terial is in use. Before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash face and hands thoroughly with soap and water.

## 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION This material is not classified as dangerous for the environment. The ecological assessment for this material is based on an evaluation of its components. Print Date: 10/16/2009

1-Methoxy-2-propanol has acute oral (rat) and acute dermal (rabbit) LD50 values of 3,739 mg/kg and 13 g/kg, respectively. The acute 6-hour inhalation LC50 (rat) value is >7000 ppm (31.59 mg/L/4hr). Direct contact with 1- Methoxy-2-Propanol can cause mild skin and eye irritation. Exposure of 1-methoxy-2-propanol to animals via oral, dermal and inhalation routes have caused c entral nervous system effects. Inhal ation overexposure has also been shown to cause minor effects on the liver, kidneys and lungs, and irri tation to the eyes, and has been shown to cause fetotoxic effects. Repeat dermal exposure studies with 1-met hoxy-2-propanol had shown evidence of kidney damage in fatally poisoned animals. Page 4 of 7 RESYDROL ® AX 246w/70BG liquid coating resins

2-Butoxyethanol has acute oral (rat) and dermal (rabbi t) LD50 values of between 470 and 3000 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg, respectively. The 4-hour inhalation LC50 (rat) value for 2- Butoxyethanol is 450 ppm (2.17 mg/L). Acute overexposure to 2-butoxyethanol vapor may cause eye and respiratory irritation. Direct contact to 2-but oxyethanol can cause moderate eye and skin irritation. Repeated overexposure to vapors may cause CNS e ffects and changes in blood parameters. MSDS: 0020330

## 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS 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 contaminat ed, or it has exceeded its re commended 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 wa ste`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 MS DS is not intended to indicate if the product is a `listed hazardous waste.`RCRA Hazardous Waste C haracteristics: 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 (p H and DOT corrosivity). For Reactivity, see Section 10 (incompatible materials). For Toxicity, see Section 2 (compos ition). Federal regulations are subject to change. State and local requirements, which may differ from or be more st ringent 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 t hermal treatment or incineration at EPA approved facilities. The Company has provided the foregoing for information onl y; the person generating the waste is responsible for determining the waste classification and disposal method.
