Potential Cancer Hazard
Rats chronically exposed to 14 ppm formaldehyde contracted nasal cancers. Based on animal data and limited epidemiological evidence, NTP and IARC have listed formaldehyde as a probable human carcinogen. OSHA regulates formaldehyde as a potential human carcinogen.
May cause allergic skin reaction. Some reports suggest that formaldehyde may cause respiratory sensitization, such as asthma, ant that pre-existing respiratory and skin disorders may be aggravated by exposure.
OSHA has identified 0.5 ppm as the “Action Level”
29CFR 1910.1048. Please refer to the OSHA standard for guidance applicable to your specific operations.

Will burn. Refer to NFPA Pamphlet No. 654, “Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions in the Chemical, Dye, Pharmaceutical, and Plastic Industries,” if this material is to be reduced to or collected as a powder. In case of fire, use water spray, dry chemical, “alcohol” foam or CO2. Use water to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
• Personal protection
Where air contaminants can exceed acceptable criteria, use NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection equipment. Respirators should be selected based on the form and concentration of
contaminants in air in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 or other applicable standards or guidelines.
If airborne contaminants are generated when the material is heated or handled, sufficient ventilation in volume and air flow patterns should be provided to keep air contaminant concentration levels below acceptable criteria.
• Safe Handling
Inhalation: Avoid prolonged or repeated breathing of vapor.
Skin: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
Eyes: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with eyes.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices. These practices include avoiding unnecessary exposure and removal of the material from eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling.
• Spill or leak
Large quantities: Enclose with diking material to prevent seepage into natural bodies of water, then consult Custom-Pak Adhesives.
Small quantities: Soak up with absorbent material and remove to chemical disposal area.
• Disposal
Recover free liquid. Absorb residue and dispose of according to local, state/provincial, and federal requirements.
• Keep from freezing.
• Do not store near strong oxidizing chemicals.
• Store in a tightly closed container.
Refer to bill of lading for proper DOT description.
• Normally stable as defined in NFPA 704-12(4-3.1).
