Details:

1, PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION PRODUCT Name: Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose Synonyms: HPMC CAS NO: 9004-65-3 2, COMPASITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS This product is considered hazardous according to the OSHA hazard communication Standard 29CFR1910.1200 due to flammable dust potential. If this product is used in a manner that could generate particulates(dust),refer to MSDS Section 7,Handling and storage, and section 8, Recommended Exposure Limits and Personal Protective Equipment. 3,HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Appearance: off-white. Caution! The toxicological properties of this material have not been fully investigated. This is expected to be a low hazard for usual industrial handling. Target Organs: None. Potential Health Effects Eye: Low hazard for normal industrial handling. Skin: Low hazard for usual industrial handling. Ingestion: Low hazard for usual industrial handling. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Inhalation: Low hazard for usual industrial handling. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Special Hazard Precautions: ACUTE ESSENTIALLY NON-HAZARDOUS. Chronic: No information found. 4, FIRST AID MEASURES Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. If irritation develops, get medical aid. Skin: Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists. Ingestion: If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Get medical aid. Inhalation: Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear. Material Safety Data Sheet—Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively. Antidote: No specific antidote exists. 5, FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Dusts at sufficient concentrations can form explosive mixtures with air. Combustion generates toxic fumes. Extinguishing Media: For small fires, use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or chemical foam. 6, ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Sweep up, then place into a suitable container for disposal. Avoid generating dusty conditions. 7, HANDLING & STORAGE Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. 8,EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low. Exposure Limits PATICULATE: If used under conditions that generate particulates,the ACGIH TLV-TWA of 3 mg/m3 respirable fraction(10 mg/m3 total)should be observed. OSHA Vacated PELs: METHYL CELLULOSE: No OSHA Vacated PELs are listed for this chemical. Personal Protective Equipment Eyes: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to minimize contact with skin. Respirators: Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when necessary. 9, PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES PHYSICAL STATE: powder COLOR: white or off white ODOR: odorless SPECIFIC GRAVITY 0.25 PERCENT VOLATILE negotiable at 20 c SOLUBILITY IN WATER Limited by viscosity PH VALUE 4.0 –8.0 (2% Solution) 10, TABILITY & REACTIVITY Chemical Stability: Stable under normal temperatures and pressures.
