1 Material Safety Data Sheet Page 1 f 6 Sectin 1 : Prduct and Cmpany Identificatin Prduct Name: Supplier: 40-50, 60-70, and ther Penetratin Grade Bitumen MTA Updated: 26 April 2016 CAS Number: Mixture - nt applicable UN Number: 1999 Telephne: (0098) Sectin 2 : Hazards Identificatin Effects f Overexpsure: N significant effects expected. Emergency Respnse Data Black semi-slid. Avid ignitin surces. DOT ERG N. See Sectin 10 fr additinal Bilgical Hazards (if applicable). Sectin 3 : First Aid Measures Eye Cntact: Flush thrughly with water. If irritatin ccurs, call a dctr. Skin Cntact: If burned by cntact with ht material, cl mlten material adhering t skin as quickly as pssible with water, and see a dctr fr remval f adhering material and treatment f burn. Wash cntact areas with sap and water. Inhalatin: Remve frm further expsure. If respiratry irritatin, dizziness, nausea, r uncnsciusness ccurs, seek immediate medical assistance and call a dctr. If breathing has stpped, use muth-t-muth resuscitatin.

2 Ingestin: Nt expected t ccur in nrmal industrial use. Material Safety Data Sheet Page 2 f 6 Sectin 4 : Fire-Fighting Measures Extinguishing media: Carbn Dixide, fam, dry chemical. Special fire-fighting prcedures: Water r fam may cause frthing. Use water t keep fire expsed cntainers cl. Water spray may be used t flush spills away frm expsure. Prevent runff frm fire cntrl r dilutin frm entering streams, sewers, r drinking water supply. Special prtective equipment: Fr fires in enclsed areas, fire fighters must use self-cntained breathing apparatus. Unusual fire and explsin hazards: Avid ignitin surces. Flash Pint C: >250 (ASTM D-92). Flammable limits - LEL:, UEL:. NFPA hazard ID: Health: 1 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0 Hazardus decmpsitin prducts: Sulphur xides. Hydrgen sulphide. Carbn mnxide. Sectin 5 : Accidental Release Measures

3 Material Safety Data Sheet Page 3 f 6 Ntificatin prcedures: Reprt spills as required t apprpriate authrities. Prcedures if material is released r spilled: Shvel up and dispse f at an apprpriate waste dispsal facility in accrdance with current applicable laws and regulatins, and prduct characteristics at time f dispsal. Envirnmental precautins: Prevent spills frm entering strm sewers r drains and cntact with sil. Persnal precautins: See Sectin 9 Sectin 6 : Handling and Strage Handling: Trace amunts f Hydrgen Sulphide may be present. Keep face clear f tank and/r tank car penings. Strage: D nt stre in pen r unlabelled cntainers. Stre away frm strng xidizing agents r cmbustible material. Sectin 7 : Physical and Chemical Prperties Typical physical characteristics are given belw.

Incmpatibility (materials t avid): Strng xidizers and water. Hazardus Decmpsitin Prducts: Sulphur xides. Hydrgen sulphide. Carbn mnxide. Hazardus plymerizatin: Will nt ccur. Sectin 9 : Expsure Cntrls / Persnal Prtectin

5 Ventilatin: Use in well-ventilated area. Respiratry prtectin: Material Safety Data Sheet Page 5 f 6 Use apprved respiratry prtectin in cnfined r enclsed spaces when handling ht prduct r when hydrgen sulphide and/r asphalt fumes exceed permissible limits. Eye prtectin: Generally eye cntact with slid material is unlikely, hwever, when handling in liquid frm; chemical type gggles shuld be wrn. Skin prtectin: Use chemical-resistant aprn and/r ther clthing t prtect against ht liquid and t avid skin cntact. Acute txiclgy: Oral txicity (rats): Sectin 10 : Txiclgical Data Practically nn-txic (LD50: greater than 2000 mg/kg). Based n testing f similar prducts and/r the cmpnents. Dermal txicity (rabbits): Practically nn-txic (LD50: greater than 2000 mg/kg). Based n testing f similar prducts and/r the cmpnents. Inhalatin txicity (rats): Nt established. Eye irritatin (rabbits): Practically nn-irritating. (Draize scre: 0 r greater but 6 r less). Based n testing f similar prducts and/r the cmpnents. Skin irritatin (rabbits): Practically nn-irritating. (Primary Irritatin Index: 0.5 r less). Based n testing f similar prducts and/r the cmpnents. Other txiclgy data: Sme asphalt may cntain plycyclic armatic cmpunds (PACs). The TLV f 5mg/m 3 is believed t be adequate t prtect wrkers expsed t asphalt fumes. Trace amunts f Hydrgen Sulphide, a txic gas, may be present when this material is handled in liquid frm. Keeps face clear f tank and/r
