Health Precautions: WARNING: Fumes from hot product may cause irritation to the skin, nose, throat and lungs.
Hot asphalt may give off hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. At elevated concentrations, H2S acts as a systemic poison and causes unconsciousness and death by
Safety Precautions: WARNING: Hot asphalt can cause burns. If burned by hot product, cool affected area
immediately with cool water. Do not attempt to remove asphalt from skin. Seek SECTION 2: HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS / IDENTITY INFORMATION

HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC):

The cool semi-solid material is not expected to cause eye irritation. Thermal burns may result from contact with hot material. Some asphalts, when heated, may produce hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) (CAS No. 7783-06-4), which is a severe eye irritant. See Section 8 for The cool semi-solid material is not expected to cause skin irritation. Thermal burns may result from contact with hot material. NIOSH states that asphalt fumes or vapors can be absorbed through the skin.
INGESTION: This product may be harmful or fatal if swallowed. May cause dizziness, lack of coordination,
headache, nausea and vomiting. Do not induce vomiting, call a physician.
INHALATION: Fumes from hot products may be unpleasant and may irritate the upper and lower respiratory
tracts. Remove the person to fresh air if respiratory discomfort occurs. Some asphalts, when heated, may give off hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) (CAS No. 7783-06-4), which is a poison by inhalation and a severe irritant to the nose and throat. See Section 8 for exposure controls.
CARCINOGENICITY:
ACGIH, NTP, OSHA and IARC carcinogen lists were checked for those components with CAS Registry Numbers (8052-42-4), (64741-43-1), (64741-52-2) and (64742-11-6). Asphalt fumes (coal tar-free) are designated as A4 – NOT CLASSIFIABLE AS A HUMAN CARCINOGEN. Bitumens – including undiluted air-refined bitumens - are described as “NOT CLASSIFIABLE AS TO ITS CARCINOGENICITY TO HUMANS” (Group 3). Extracts of air refined bitumens are described as “POSSIBLY CARCINOGENIC TO HUMANS” (Group 2B). (Monograph, vol. 35; Supplement 7, p. 133) This product contains petroleum oils similar to ones categorized by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as causing skin cancer in laboratory animals when the oil was repeatedly applied for most of the lifetime of the animal with no effort made to remove the oil between applications. Handling instructions and precautions outlined in this MSDS should be followed when handling this product. Asphalt fumes are not listed as a known or reasonably anticipated human carcinogen. Asphalt fumes are not classified as carcinogens.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE:
EYES:
Burns, irritation, redness or blurred vision Burns, irritation, redness and inflammation INGESTION: Dizziness, lack of coordination, headache, nausea or vomiting. Do not induce vomiting.
INHALATION: Asphalt fumes may cause nose and throat irritation, coughing, wheezing or shortness of breath,
nausea, headaches, stomach pain, decreased appetite or fatigue.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:

Persons with preexisting skin or respiratory disorders may have their conditions aggravated by SECTION 4: EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID MEASURES
Immediately flush eyes with water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately.

SKIN:
If hot material is splashed on the skin, immediately drench or immerse the area in water. If available, apply ice water, ice packs or a water gel blanket on the affected area. Do not try to remove the asphalt from the skin once it has cooled and do not use solvents or thinners to remove the asphalt from the skin. Seek medical attention immediately. Medical personnel can soften and remove the cooled asphalt from the skin by using petroleum jelly or mineral oil.
INGESTION:
Do not induce vomiting. If ingested, seek medical attention.
INHALATION:
If operating conditions create airborne concentrations that exceed the exposure standard, move the person to fresh air. Administer CPR if required. Provide oxygen if breathing is difficult. Seek SECTION 5: FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA

ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES:
In case of spill, clean up using absorbent material such as earth or sand.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:
Observe Federal, State and Local regulations covering chemical waste spills.

RCRA HAZARD CLASS:
This product is not a characteristic hazardous waste under RCRA. No applicable for this product’s components. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING AND STORAGE:
Liquid asphalt is extremely hot. To avoid serious burns, always use the following precautions. Never expose bare skin. Wear a long sleeve cotton shirt, a full-face shirt cuff. NIOSH and ACGIH recommend keeping asphalt temperatures as low as possible. NIOSH advises use of engineering controls and good work practices at all work sites to minimize worker exposure to asphalt fumes. Some asphalts, when heated, may give off hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S). See Section 8 for VENTILATION:
Use adequate ventilation to keep the airborne concentrations of this material SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
If operating conditions create airborne concentrations that exceed the exposure standard for asphalt fumes, the use of an approved NIOSH/OSHA respirator for supplied breathing equipment is recommended. 15PPM / (21 mg/m³ of air) – STEL 50PPM - ceiling EYE PROTECTION:
Wear appropriate safety glasses, goggles or full-face shield. SKIN PROTECTION:
Long sleeve cotton shirt and cotton pants are recommended. Wear appropriate SECTION 9: PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
