 3.  HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

Toxicity:                  Eye and skin irritant.
                           Moderately toxic by ingestion.
                           If use creates respirable particles, some
                           respiratory systems injury may occur. May enhance
                           allergic conditions in certain people.
Primary Routes of Entry:   Skin, ingestion, inhalation, eyes.
Signs and symptoms
 of Exposure:              Acetic acid produced during cure irritates eyes,
                           nose throat. May cause moderate corneal injury and
                           considerable redness to eyes.
                           Inhalation may may cause difficulty in breathing.
                           Ingestion may cause vomiting. Swallowing large
                           amounts may cause digestive discomfort.
Existing Conditions
 Aggravated by Exposure:   Heart disease and respiratory disorders.
                           Methyltriacetoxysilane: Eye, skin, and pulmonary
                           disorders.
