2 Section 3 hazard identification Potential acute health effects Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator), of eye contact (irritant), of igestion, of inhalation. Potential chronic health effects CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS MUTAGENIC EFFECTS TERATOGENIC EFFECTS DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY Repeated or prolonged exposure is not known to aggrevate medical condition. Section 4 first aid measures Eye contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention if irritation occurs. Skin contact Wash with soap and water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Get medical attention if irritation develops. Cold water may be used. Serious skin contact Inhalation If inhaled, move to fresh air. If breathing is difficut, give oxygen. Get medical attention. Serious inhalation Ingestion Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If large quantities of this material are swallowed, call a physician immediately. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Serious Ingestion Section 5 fire fighting measures Flammability of the product Auto-ignition temperature Flash points Flammable limits Products of combustion Fire hazards in presence of various substances Explosion hazards in presence of various substances May be combustible at high termperature. Above 190ºC. Slightly flammable in presence of open flames. Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact Not available; Risks of explosion of the product in presence of static discharge Bio Creations Brouns FERTIMASTER Silic Acid Page 2 of 6

3 Fire fighting media and instructions Special remarks on fire hazards special remarks on explosion hazards SMALL FIRE Use DRY chemical powder. LARGE FIRE Use water spray, fog or foam. Do not use water jet. Section 6 accidental release measures Personal precautions Evacuate non essential personnel, eliminate ignition sources, and wear protective equipment. Shut off source of leak only if safe to do so. Wear respiratory equipment if exposure limits are exceeded. Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate water disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose off according to local and regional authority requirements. Large spill Evacuate unprotected personnel from the area. Absorb with an inert dry material and put the spilled material in an appropriate water disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system. Avoid runoff to ground water, surface waters and sewers. Section 7 Handling and storage Precautions Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not ingest. Do not breathe gas/fumes/vapor/spray. Wear suitable protective clothing. If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis. Storage Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Section 8 exposure controls & personal protection Engineering controls Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are proximal to the work-station location. Personal protection Safety glasses. Lab coat. Vapor respirator. Be sure to use an approved/ certified respirator or equivalent. Gloves. Personal protection in case of large spill Splash goggles. Full suit. Vapor respirator. Boots. Gloves. A self contained breathing apparatus should be used to avoid inhalation of the product. Exposure limits Bio Creations Brouns FERTIMASTER Silic Acid Page 3 of 6

Incompatible materials, excess heat. Section 11 toxicological information Routes of entry Toxicity to animals Chronic effects on humans Other toxic effects on humans Absorbed through skin. Eye contact. Inhalation. Ingestion. Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator), of ingestion, of inhalation. Bio Creations Brouns FERTIMASTER Silic Acid Page 4 of 6

5 Special remarks on toxicity to animals Special remarks on chronic effects on humans Special remarks on other toxic effects on humans Section 12 ecological information Ecotoxicity BOD and COD Products of biodegredation Toxicity of the products of biodegredation Special remarks on the products of biodegredation Possibly hazardous short term degredation products are not likely. However, long term degredation products may arise. The products of degredation are less toxic than the product itself. Section 13 disposal consideration Waste disposal Watse must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state and local environmental control regulations. If uncontaminated, recover and reuse as product. If contaminated with other materials, the nature and extent of contamination may require use of specialized disposal methods. Disposal regulatory requirements Consult local, county, state or federal regulatory agencies for acceptable disposal procedures and disposal locations. Section 14 transport information DOT classification Identification Special provisions for transport Not a DOT controlled material (United States). Not Applicable. Not Applicable.

A large number of abbreviations and acronyms appear on MSDS. Some of these which are commonly used include the following EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR ACGIH - American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, a professional association which establishes exposure limits. TLV - Threshold Limit Value - an airborne concentration of a substance which represents conditions under which it is generally believed that nearly all workers may be repeatedly exposed without adverse effect. The duration must be considered, including the 8-hour Time Weighted Average (TWA), the 15-minute Short Term Exposure Limit (STEL), aqnd the instantaneous Ceiling Level (C). Skin absorption effects must also be considered. OSHA - U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration. PEL - Permissible Exposure Limit - This exposure value means exactly the same as TLV, except that is is enforceable by OSHA. The OSHA Permissible Espoure Limits are based in the 1989 PELs and the June, 1993 Air Contaminants Rule (Federal Register and ). Both the current PELs and the vacated PELs are indicated. The phrase, Vacated 1989 PEL, is p;laced next to the PEL which has vacated by court order. IDLH- Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health - This level represents a concentration from which one can escape within 30 minutes without suffering escape-preventing or permanent injury. The DFG-MAK is the Republic of Germany s Maximum Exposure Level, simular to the U.S. PEL. NIOSH is the National Insitute of Occupational Safety and Health, which is the research arm of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). NIOSH issues guidelines called Recommended Exposure levels (RELs). When no exposure guidelines are established, an entry of NE is made for reference.
