Substance/preparation and company identification Company 24 Hour Emergency Response Information BASF Polyurethane Foam Enterprises LLC 13630 Watertower Circle Minneapolis, MN 55441 CHEMTREC: 1-800-424-9300 Hotline: 1-800-888-3342 Chemical family: resin Synonyms: URETHANE SYSTEM RESIN COMPONENT 2. Composition/information on ingredients CAS Number Content (W/W) Chemical name < 75.0 % Polyol < 12.0 % Flame Retardant 56-81-5 < 2.0 % glycerol 108-01-0 < 5.0 % 2-dimethylaminoethanol < 2.0 % Surfactant < 2.0 % Catalyst 460-73-1 < 10.0 % 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane 3. Hazard identification Emergency overview CAUTION: MAY CAUSE EYE, SKIN AND RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. SENSITIZER. CONTAINS MATERIAL WHICH CAN CAUSE NERVOUS SYSTEM DAMAGE. Potential health effects Primary routes of exposure Routes of entry for solids and liquids include eye and skin contact, ingestion and inhalation. Routes of entry for gases include inhalation and eye contact. Skin contact may be a route of entry for liquified gases. Acute toxicity: Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal disturbances. Information on: Fluorocarbons At levels above the recommended exposure limit, the fluorocarbon acts as a weak narcotic. Acute overexposure causes tremors, confusion, irritation, suffocation, and may result in cardiac sensitization. Safety data sheet FE 348-M B-RESIN Revision date : 2007/03/01 Page: 2/6 Version: 4.4 (30245621/MDS_GEN_US/EN) Information on: Dimethylaminoethanol Dimethylaminoethanol is extremely irritating to the skin and eyes. Direct contact with the liquid is corrosive. Acute inhalation exposures at high concentrations have been known to produce respiratory difficulties, loss of coordination and decreased motor activity in rats. Information on: Glycerin Ingestion of large amounts of glycerine may result in nausea, vomiting, gastric irritation, and kidney disorders. Glycerine can exert systemic effects when given orally in very large doses. Irritation: Irritating to respiratory system. Information on: Polyol Contact with the eyes and skin may result in irritation. Information on: Dimethylaminoethanol Contact with dimethylaminoethanol may result in severe irritation. Burns and permanent injury may result. Repeated dose toxicity: Information on: Dimethylaminoethanol Repeated skin contact with dimethylaminoethanol may result in sensitization. Repeated inhalation has been known to produce effects on the eyes and nasal mucosa as well as respiratory and olfactory lesions in experimental animals. Exposure to dimethylaminoethanol has been associated with visual and ocular changes and is reversible upon significantly reduced or ceased exposure. 4. First-aid measures General advice: Remove contaminated clothing. If inhaled: Remove the affected individual into fresh air and keep the person calm. Assist in breathing if necessary. Immediate medical attention required. If on skin: Wash affected areas thoroughly with soap and water. Immediate medical attention required. If in eyes: In case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately for at least 15 minutes with plenty of water. Immediate medical attention required. If swallowed: Rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Immediate medical attention required. 5. Fire-fighting measures Flash point: > 200 °F (closed cup) Autoignition: No data available. Suitable extinguishing media: water, dry extinguishing media, carbon dioxide, foam Hazards during fire-fighting: No particular hazards known. Protective equipment for fire-fighting: Firefighters should be equipped with self-contained breathing apparatus and turn-out gear.

Accidental release measures Cleanup: Spills should be contained, solidified, and placed in suitable containers for disposal. 7. Handling and storage Handling General advice: Product should not be mixed with air above atmospheric pressure for leak testing or any other purpose. Use dry nitrogen to transfer or leak test equipment pressurized with product. Protection against fire and explosion: No explosion proofing necessary. Storage General advice: Product that is frozen and/or tending to sedimentation can be liquified or homogenized by careful application of indirect heat (do not use flames or direct contact with a heat source). Protect from direct sunlight. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Avoid extreme heat. Store protected against freezing. Stored and transported in a cylinder under pressure. Must not be repacked by the customer. Storage stability: Storage temperature: 50 -80 °F Protect against moisture. Store in unopened original containers in a cool and dry place. 8. Exposure controls and personal protection Components with workplace control parameters OSHA PEL 5 mg/m3 Respirable fraction ; PEL 15 mg/m3 Total dust ; glycerol ACGIH TWA value 10 mg/m3 Mist ; Advice on system design: Provide local exhaust ventilation to control vapours/mists. Personal protective equipment Respiratory protection: Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent) organic vapour/particulate respirator as needed. Hand protection: Chemical resistant protective gloves Eye protection: Wear face shield or tightly fitting safety goggles (chemical goggles) if splashing hazard exists. General safety and hygiene measures: Avoid contact with skin. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wear protective clothing as necessary to prevent contact. Avoid inhalation of vapours/mists. Wash soiled clothing immediately. Safety data sheet FE 348-M B-RESIN Revision date : 2007/03/01 Page: 4/6 Version: 4.4 (30245621/MDS_GEN_US/EN) 9.
