 3.  HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

Toxicity:                  Eye and skin irritant. May be irritating by
                           inhalation. Moderately toxic by ingestion. When
                           heated to temperatures above 300°F (150°F) in the
                           presence of air, this product can form
                           formaldehyde vapors. Formaldehyde is a potential
                           cancer hazard and a known skin and respiratory
                           sensitizer. Vapors irritate eyes, nose and throat.
                           Safe handling conditions may be maintained by
                           keeping vapor concentrations below the OSHA
                           permissible limit for formaldehyde.
Primary Routes of Entry:   Skin or eye contact; inhalation; ingestion.
Signs and symptoms
 of Exposure:              Methyl ethyl ketoxime and methanol vapors
                           produced during cure are toxic and irritates eyes,
                           nose, and throat.
Existing Conditions
 Aggravated by Exposure:   Mica: respiratory conditions.
