OPTIONAL POLLUTION PREVENTION INFORMATION 

To claim information in this section as confidential circle or bracket the specific information that you claim as confidential. 

In this section you may provide information not reported elsewhere in this form regarding your 

efforts to reduce or minimize potential risks associated with activities surrounding 

manufacturing, processing, use and disposal of the PMN substance. Please include new 

information pertinent to pollution prevention, including source reduction, recycling activities 

and safer processes or products available due to the new chemical substance. Source reduction i 

includes the reduction in the amount or toxicity of chemical wastes by technological 

modification, process and procedure modification, product reformulation, raw materials 

substitution, and/or inventory control. Recycling refers to the reclamation of useful chemical 

components from wastes that would otherwise be treated or released as air emissions or water 

discharges, or land disposal. Descriptions of pollution prevention, source reduction and 

recycling should emphasize potential risk reduction subsequent to compliance with existing 

regulatory requirements and can be either quantitative or qualitative. The EPA is interested in 

this information to assess Qverall net reductions in toxicity or environmental releases and 

exposures, not the shifting of risks to other environmental media or non-environmental areas 

(e.g., occupational or consumer exposure). In addition, information on the relative cost or 

performance characteristics of the PMN substance to potential alternatives may be provided. i 

All information provided in this section will be taken into consideration during the review 

of this substance. See the revised Instructions Manual that includes a Pollution Prevention 

manual for guidance and examples. 

Describe the expected net benefits, such as (1) an overall reduction in risk. to human health or the environment; (2) a reduction in 

the volume manufactured; (3) a reduction in the generation of waste materials through recycling, source reduction or other 

means; (4) a reduction in potential toxicity or human exposure and/or environmental release; (5) an increase in product 

performance, a decrease in the cost of production and/or improved operation efficiency of the new chemical substance in 

comparison to existing chemical substances used in similar applications; or (6) the extent to which the new chemical substance 

may be a substitute for an existing substance that poses a greater overall risk. to human health or the environment.

Pollution Prevention Information 

SIL50DA-1957 will be produced specifically for pollution prevention. 


It will be used to reduce the amount of styrene in unsaturated polyester resins. 


The Southern California Air Quality Management District has revised rule 


1162 as ofJuly 1, 2002. The effect ofthis revision is that maximum styrene 


percentage for certain unsaturated polyester resins, is 35 percent. SIL50DA1957 is a mixture, which has low volatility and low viscosity. When a 


polyester resin with 38 percent styrene is combined with SIL50DA-1957 in 


the ratio of 92 parts by weight to 8 parts by weight of SIL50DA-1957 the 


styrene percentage is reduced to approximately 34.5. 


The specific processing for SIL50DA-1957 described in Part II Section b is a 


resin casting operation. This product may also be used to reduce styrene 


content for unsaturated polyester resins used in other processes.

MEMORANDUM 

DATE: November 13, 2002 (reworked August 23, 2002 memo) 

TO: Maw Wang 

FROM: Larry Anderson 

SUBJECT: NMR It FTIR analysis of SIL50DA-1957 

Project 02C-01-08. 

NMR 

NMR I FORMULA 

PA .059 .02 i 

FA .941 .98 

BenzYl Alcohol .974 .98 

. Cyclohexanol .840 .96 

·2EH Trace .02 

PG .128 .14 

PA overlaps the much larger benzyl alcohol peak, so the accuracy is poor. 2EH is visible in the spectrum, 

but too low to quantify, and it's just coincidental that the PG appears quite accurate. All of its peaks 

overlap other peaks. Please see the spectrum attached below the mR spectrum.
