Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview-Part A
Danger. May cause an allergic skin reaction. Causes serious eye damage.
Emergency Overview-Part B
Danger. May cause an allergic skin reaction. Causes serious eye damage.
Emergency Overview-Part C, Vinyl Chips
Not a hazardous substance or mixture.
Emergency Overview-Part D, Concrete Etch
Not a hazardous substance or mixture.
Potential Health Effects-Part A
Eye Contact: Substance causes moderate eye irritation.
Skin Contact: Substance may cause slight skin irritation.
Inhalation: High gas, vapor, mist or dust concentrations may be harmful if inhaled. Avoid breathing fumes, spray, vapors, or mist. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. Prolonged or excessive inhalation may cause respiratory tract irritation.
Ingestion: Irritating to the nose, throat and respiratory tract. Harmful if swallowed.
Potential Health Effects-Part B
Eye Contact: Causes eye irritation. Substance causes severe eye irritation. Injury may be permanent.
Skin Contact: Causes skin irritation. Allergic reactions are possible. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material. Severely irritating; may cause permanent skin damage.
Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. High gas, vapor, mist or dust concentrations may be harmful if inhaled. Avoid breathing fumes, spray, vapors, or mist. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. Prolonged or excessive inhalation may cause respiratory tract irritation.
Ingestion: Corrosive and may cause severe and permanent damage to mouth, throat and stomach. Substance may be harmful if swallowed. Potential Health Effects-Part C, Vinyl Chips
Eye Contact: Irritating, and may injure eye tissue if not removed promptly.
Skin Contact: Low hazard for usual industrial handling or commercial handling by trained personnel.
Inhalation: High gas, vapor, mist or dust concentrations may be harmful if inhaled. Avoid breathing fumes, spray, vapors, or mist.
Ingestion: Expected to be a low ingestion hazard.
Potential Health Effects-Part D, Concrete Etch
Eye Contact: Can cause severe eye irritation. Substance causes severe eye irritation. Injury may be permanent.
Skin Contact: Contact causes skin irritation. Severely irritating; may cause permanent skin damage.
Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. High gas, vapor, mist or dust concentrations may be harmful if inhaled. Avoid breathing fumes, spray, vapors, or mist. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs.
Ingestion: Corrosive and may cause severe and permanent damage to mouth, throat and stomach. Substance may be harmful if swallowed. May cause nausea.

 

Chronic health effects

From SDS:
Part A, Epoxy
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage.
Part B, Garage Floor Coating
Prolonged or repeated overexposure may cause lung damage. Effects of overexposure may include irritation of the nose and throat, irritation of the digestive tract and signs of nervous system depression (e.g., headache, drowsiness, loss of coordination and fatigue). Contains carbon black. Chronic inflammation, lung fibrosis, and lung tumors have been observed in some rats experimentally exposed for long periods of time to excessive concentrations of carbon black and several insoluble fine dust particles. Tumors have not been observed in other animal species (i.e., mouse and hamster) under similar circumstances and study conditions. Epidemiological studies of North American workers show no evidence of clinically significant adverse health effects due to occupational exposure to carbon black.
Part C, Vinyl Chips
No information.
Part D, Concrete Etch
Repeated exposure to low concentrations of HCl vapor or mist may cause bleeding of nose and gums.

Carcinogenicity

Part A, Epoxy
No information.
Part B, Garage Floor Coating
Carbon black is listed as a Group 2B-Possibly carcinogenic to humans by IARC and is proposed to be listed as A4- not classified as a human carcinogen by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Significant exposure is not anticipated during brush application or drying. Risk of overexposure depends on duration and level of exposure to dust from repeated sanding of surfaces or spray mist and the actual concentration of carbon black in the formula. Contains Titanium Dioxide. Titanium Dioxide is listed as a Group 2B-Possibly carcinogenic to humans by IARC. No significant exposure to Titanium Dioxide is thought to occur during the use of products in which Titanium Dioxide is bound to other materials, such as in paints during brush application or drying. Risk of overexposure depends on duration and level of exposure to dust from repeated sanding of surfaces or spray mist and the actual concentration of Titanium Dioxide in the formula. (Ref: IARC Monograph, Vol. 93, 2010)Repeated exposure to low concentrations of HCl vapor or mist may cause bleeding of nose and gums.
Part C, Vinyl Chips
Contains Titanium Dioxide. Titanium Dioxide is listed as a Group 2B-Possibly carcinogenic to humans by IARC. No significant exposure to Titanium Dioxide is thought to occur during the use of products in which Titanium Dioxide is bound to other materials, such as in paints during brush application or drying. Risk of overexposure depends on duration and level of exposure to dust from repeated sanding of surfaces or spray mist and the actual concentration of Titanium Dioxide in the formula.
