Material Safety Data Sheet Section 1 Chemical Product and Company Identification Trade Name: MiniFusor Diffusor Supplier: Auralex® Acoustics 9955 Westpoint Dr., Suite 101 Indianapolis, IN USA 46256 Emergency Response Number (800) 959-3343 Section 2 Composition and Information on Ingredients CAS Number 9003-55-6 9003-53-8 Chemical Name Polystyrene Modified Polystyrene Section 3 Hazard Identification Emergency Overview The Polystyrene sheet is not expected to be an inhalation hazard under normal processing conditions. If the material is processed under prolonged exposure to flame or high temperature, thermal burns to the skin may occur and toxic gasses produced may irritate the respiratory system. Potential Health Effects Eyes, skin, and inhalation due to exposure to flame (molten plastic). Primary Routes of Exposure Routes of entry could include eye, skin, and inhalation due to exposure to flame (molten plastic). Potential Environmental Effects If processed scrap is controlled by the customer, no negative ecological effects are expected. Section 4 First-Aid Measures Inhalation Remove affected individual to fresh air, seek medical attention if difficulties in breathing occur. Skin If skin has contact with molten material, place affected area under cold running water. Seek medical attention for removal of material from the affected area. Eyes If there is contact to the eyes with molten material, rinse with plenty of after and seek immediate medical attention. If plastic fines enter the eye, rinse with water for 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention if irritation develops. Section 5 Fire-Fighting Measures Suitable Extinguishing Media Dry extinguisher, water, carbon, dioxide, foam Protective Equipment for Fire-Fighting Firefighters should be equipped with self-contained breathing apparatus Hazardous Combustion Products During a fire, Carbon Oxides and soot may be generated by combustion and thermal decomposition of the material. Section 6 Accidental Release Measures The Polystyrene material in sheet form is not applicable for this section Section 7 Handling and Storage Handling Protect against flame and intense heat. Storage Store in well ventilated area, avoid extreme heat and any source of ignition or open flame. Secondary Use/Reprocessing When reprocessing material for secondary use, ground all handling equipment. Keep material and dust produced away from high heat and flame. Use good housekeeping practices when reprocessing material. Section 8 Exposure Controls and Personal Protection Personal Protective Equipment Respiratory Protection During processing respiratory protection may not be necessary if ventilation is adequately provided. At excessive processing temperature, breathing protection may be required. Hand Protection Gloves may be required when processing the sheet due to sharp edges and when plastic is in the molten state. Eye Protections Safety glasses with side-shields are recommended General Avoid contact with molten on the skin, eyes and clothing. Handle product in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices.
