Causes burns. May cause severe irritation with corneal injury, which may result in permanent impairment of vision, even blindness. Vapours may irritate eyes. SKIN CONTACT: Corrosive. Harmful in contact with skin. Causes burns. May cause severe injury to skin following prolonged or repeated contact, and may cause skin sensitization or other allergic responses. INGESTION: Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation or ulceration INHALATION: May cause respiratory sensitisation or asthma in susceptible individuals. Excessive exposure may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract.

5 ISSUE: 5 DATE OF ISSUE: 5/12/07 Page 5 of 7 Eye irritation/corrosion : Severe eye irritation. Acute dermal irritation/corrosion : Severe skin irritation. Ingredient Bisphenol A epoxy resin Skin LD 50 (Rabbit) 20,000 mg / Kg Oral LD 50 (Rat) > 5,000 mg / Kg Sensitisation: Has caused allergic skin reactions in humans. Did not cause allergic skin reactions when tested in mice. Repeated Dose Toxicity: Except for skin sensitisation, repeated exposures to low molecular weight epoxy resins of this type are not anticipated to cause significant adverse effects Chronic Toxicity and Carcinogenicity: Many studies have been conducted to assess the potential carcinogenicity of diglycidal ether of Bisphenol A (DGEBPA). Indeed, the most recent review of the available data by the international Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has concluded that DGEBPA is not a carcinogen. Although some weak evidence of carcinogenicity has been reported in animals, when all of the data are considered, the weight of evidence does not show that DGEBPA is carcinogenic. Developmental Toxicity: Resins based on the diglycidal ether of Bisphenol A (DGEBPA) did not cause birth defects or other adverse effects on the foetus when pregnant rabbits were exposed by skin contact, the most likely route of exposure, or when pregnant rats or rabbits were exposed orally. Reproductive Toxicity: In animal studies, did not interfere with reproduction. Genetic Toxicology: In vitro genetic studies were negative in some cases and positive in other cases. Animal genetic studies were negative. SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Toxic to aquatic organisms. Do not allow to enter drains. Aquatic toxicity : No data is available on the product itself.
