Effects of Exposure: INHALATION: INHALATION OF FUMES OR VAPORS DURING
  PROCESSING MAY CAUSE RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. EYE CONTACT: PELLETS DO
  NOT CAUSE SIGNIFICANT EYE IRRITATION. SKIN CONTACT: PELLETS DO NOT CAUSE SIG
  NIFICANT SKIN IRRITATION.
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: SEE HEALTH HAZARDS.
  (FP N). INHAL: IF FUMES ARE INHALED, REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IFBREATHING IS

Handling and Disposal
*
Spill Release Procedures: SPILLED PRODUCT MAY CAUSE A SLIPPING HAZARD. IN CASE
  OF SPILL OR LEAK, VACUUM OR SWEEP UP AND PLACE IN CLEAN, COVERED CONTAINERS
  FOR RECYCLE OR DISPOSAL.
Waste Disposal Methods: WHEN DISCARDED, SANTOPRENE GEN PURPOSE THERMOPLASTIC
  LISTING OF HAZ WASTE." RECYCLE OR BURN IN APPRVD INCINERATOR OR DISPOSE OF IN
  AP PRVD CHEM LANDFILL I/A/W ALL APPLIC LOCAL, STATE & FED LAWS &
  REGS. CONSULT YOUR ATTORNEY OR APPROP  REGULATORY OFFICIALS FOR INFO ON SUCH
  (SUPDAT)
Handling And Storage Precautions: AVOID LEAVING CONTAINER OPEN FOR PRLNGD
  PERIODS TO PREVENT EXPOSURE TO HUMITIDY. SANTOPRENE GENERAL PURPOSE
  THERMOPLASTIC RUBBER WILL PICK UP SMALL AMTS OF MOISTURE. STORE IN A COOL,
  DRY PLACE. USUAL  PRECS IN PELLET HANDLING SHOULD BE OBSERVED TO PREVENT
  CONTAMINATION BY DIRT OR OTHER MATERIALS.
Other Precautions: HANDLE PELLETS I/A/W GOOD INDUS HYGIENE & SAFETY
  PRACTICES. THESE PRACTICES INCLUDE AVOIDING UNNEC EXPOSURE & REMOVAL OF
  MATL FROM EYES, SKIN & CLTHG. CAUTION! PROCESSING RELEASES VAPORS OR
  FUMES WHIC H MAY CAUSE RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. AVOID BRTHNG PROCESSING
  FUMES OR VAPORS. PROCESS USING ADE Q VENTILATION.
