Haldor Topsøe A/S Nymøllevej 55, DK-2800 Lyngby Denmark Phone: Fax: catalyst@topsoe.dk 2 INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS. %w/w Compound CAS No EEC No Classification (67/548/EEC) * 1-5 Diboron trioxide B 2 O Rep3; R62 R Cobalt oxide CoO Xn; R22 R43 N; R 50/ Molybdenum MoO Xi; R36/37 Xn; R48/20/22 trioxide Aluminium oxide Al 2 O * For the text of hazard classes and R phrases see section HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION. Fire, explosion and reactivity hazards: Routes of entry: Health hazards: Acute: Chronic: Synergistic effects: Environmental hazards: Inhalation, eye and skin contact, ingestion. Harmful. Inhalation of excessive amounts of dust may cause irritation of the respiratory system; symptoms may include coughing and difficulty in breathing. Irritating to the eyes. May irritate skin. Cobalt oxide is a skin sensitizer. Molybdeum trioxide may cause damage to the upper and lower respiratory tract. Cobalt oxide is listed as a carcinogen. The product contains small amounts of diboron trioxide, which may cause possible risk of impaired fertility and may cause possible harm to the unborn child. None known. Dangerous for the environment. The product contains cobalt oxide, which is very toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. 4 FIRST-AID MEASURES. Inhalation: Eye contact: Skin contact: If dust is inhaled, move to fresh air. In case of significant inhalation of dust: seek medical attention if uncomfortable. Immediately flush eyes with water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. In case of eczema or other skin disorders, seek medical attention.

2 Page 2 Ingestion: In case of substantial ingestion: Seek medical attention. Seek medical attention. 5 FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES. Product is compatible with standard fire-fighting agents. Fumes of molybdenum trioxide may be released at temperatures above 795 C / 1463 F. Check runoff for metals. 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES. Personal precautions: Environmental precautions: Methods for cleaning up: Avoid inhalation of dust. Do not wash spills into water ways or public treatment systems. Collect by vacuuming or sweeping (minimizing dust) and place in labelled container for proper reclamation or disposal. 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE. Handling: Avoid handling methods creating excessive dust. Use mechanical ventilation when appropriate. Use good housekeeping and personal hygiene practices. Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling materials. Storage: Keep in tightly sealed containers. Product may be damaged by water. 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION. Exposure limits: Exposure limits may vary. It is recommended that information about locally applicable exposure limits is obtained.

4 Page 4 Dangerous to health effects: Inhalation: Eye contact: Skin contact: Ingestion: Chronic effects as listed by OSHA, IARC, NTP, MAK: Inhalation of excessive amounts of dust may cause irritation of the respiratory system, but has low acute toxicity. Cobalt compounds may cause occupational asthma. In animal studies, on repeated inhalatory uptake over an extended period molybdenum trioxide caused damage to the upper and lover respiratory tract inclusive of the lung even at low concentration. Irritating to the eyes. May irritate skin. Cobalt oxide is a skin sensitizer. Ingestion may cause malaise, nausea and diarrhoea. Carcinogenic: Cobalt oxide IARC Cancer Review: Group 2B, MAK 3 Teratogenic: Not listed. Mutagenic: Not listed. 12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION. Constituents classified by EU for environmental hazards: The product contains cobalt oxide, which is very toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. Other ecological determinations: Not available 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS. May be reclaimed. Dispose of waste in accordance with applicable EEC, national and local regulations. Haldor Topsøe A/S makes no claim for the classification of used or contaminated material. Spent catalyst may be pyrophoric. 14 TRANSPORT INFORMATION.
