Company Identification: Qorpak 1195 Washington Pike Bridgeville, PA Company Phone Number: (412) Emergency Phone Number: (800) CHEMTREC Phone Number: (800) Section 2 - Composition, Information on Ingredients CAS# Chemical Name: Percent Gelatin 30% Water 70% Section 3 - Hazards Identification Emergency Overview Appearance: clear, colorless liquid Caution! Harmful if ingested. May cause eye and skin irritation. May cause respiratory or gastrointestinal tract irritation. Target Organs: Lungs, mucous membranes. Potential Health Effects Eye: Causes eye irritation. Skin: May cause skin irritation. Ingestion: Harmful if ingested. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. Chronic: Repeated exposure may cause damage to lungs and mucous membranes

2 Section 4 - First Aid Measures Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. Skin: Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists. Ingestion: If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical aid. Inhalation: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear. Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively. Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Extinguishing Media: For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray. Autoignition Temperature: No information found. Flash Point: 235 F ( C). NFPA Rating: Health-1; flammability-0; reactivity-0 Explosion Limits: Lower: n/a Upper: n/a Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Absorb with an inert material and place into a suitable disposal container. Clean up spills immediately. Provide ventilation

3 Section 7 - Handling and Storage Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not get on skin or in eyes. Do not ingest. Avoid breathing vapor, mist, or gas. Storage: Store tightly closed at room temperature. Protect from heat and incompatibles. Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the permissible exposure limits. Exposure Limits: Chemical Name: ACGIH NIOSH OSHA Brij 35 none listed none listed none listed Water none listed none listed none listed OSHA Vacated PELs: Brij 35: No OSHA Vacated PELs are listed. Personal Protective Equipment Eyes: Do not wear contact lenses when working with chemicals. Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described in 29 CFR Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. Respirators: Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29 CFR and ANSI Z88.2. Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
