11. MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET 11.1. Material Safety Data Sheet The MSDS of the product containing the notified polymer provided by the notifier was in accordance with the NOHSC National Code of Practice for the Preparation of Material Safety (NOHSC 2003). It is published here as a matter of public record. The accuracy of Data Sheets the information on the MSDS remains the responsibility of the applicant. 11.2. Label The label for the product containing the notified polymer provided by the notifier was in accordance with the NOHSC National Code of Practice for the Labelling of Workplace (NOHSC 1994). The accuracy of the information on the label remains the Substances responsibility of the applicant. 12. RECOMMENDATIONS Hazard Classification and Labelling Use the following risk phrases for products/mixtures containing the notified chemical: Conc 25%: R20/21/22; R34; R43; 25%> Conc 10%: R34; R43 10%> Conc 5%: R36/37/38; R43 5%> Conc 1%: R43 Products containing more than 1% notified chemical and available to the public must carry the following safety directions on the label: S26 In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice S36 Wear suitable protective clothing S37 Wear suitable gloves S42 During spraying wear suitable respiratory equipment (appropriate wording to be specified by the manufacturer) S63 In case of accident by inhalation: remove casualty to fresh air and keep at rest. S64 If swallowed, rinse mouth with water, (only if the person is conscious) Health Surveillance As the notified chemical is a sensitiser, employers should carry out health surveillance for any worker who has been identified in the workplace risk assessment as having a significant risk of sensitisation. Sensitised workers should be advised not to further handle the notified polymer Occupational Health and Safety Employers should implement the following isolation and engineering controls to minimise occupational exposure to the notified chemical as mixed for use: enclosure of pumps and filling machines during repackaging to prevent exposure to aerosols; isolation of spray working areas where possible; exhaust ventilation during transfer of notified polymer from drum to mixing tank; good ventilation during preparation and application of coating solutions. Employers should implement the following safe work practices to minimise occupational exposure during handling of the notified chemical avoid skin and eye contact; avoid breathing spray;
