CAUTION! MAY CAUSE EYE IRRITATION. CANCER HAZARD. CONTAINS CRYSTALLINE SILICA WHICH CAN CAUSE CANCER. Repeated and prolonged inhalation of respirable particles can cause lung cancer and delayed lung damage (silicosis). Potential Health Effects MSDS #: 3323 Entered: 9/28/06 Product Code: 43000 Revision: 48 Issued: 19 JUN 2006 Page 1 of 7 Siliporite(R) Molecular Sieves (Extrudates or Beads) Material Safety Data Sheet Arkema Inc. EHS - MSDS Received: 9/28/06 Inhalation and skin contact are expected to be the primary routes of occupational exposure to this material. Zeolites will become hot as they absorb water. Prolonged contact can cause burns to moist body tissues. Repeated and prolonged inhalation of crystalline silica may cause a disabling lung disease (commonly known as silicosis). Clinical signs and symptoms of silicosis include cough, shortness of breath, wheezing and impairment of lung function. Impairment of lung function may be progressive. In the usual case of silicosis, there is a slow deterioration of capacity for physical effort, decreased chest expansion, and an increased susceptibility to tuberculosis and other respiratory infections. Crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz is classified as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and respirable forms of crystalline silica are listed as substances known to be a human carcinogen by the National Toxicology Program. Short term, extremely heavy exposures to crystalline quartz dust (particularly small-sized particles) can result in acute silicosis. This disease is rapidly progressive with diffuse pulmonary involvement, which may develop within months of initial exposure. Individuals with acute silicosis may suffer an abrupt onset of violent coughing, labored breathing, and weight loss; death has been known to occur within one to two years. 4 FIRST AID MEASURES IF IN EYES, immediately flush with plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation persists. IF ON SKIN, flush the area with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists. IF SWALLOWED, do NOT induce vomiting. Give water to drink. Get medical attention immediately. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. IF INHALED, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, get medical attention. 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Fire and Explosive Properties Auto-Ignition Temperature Flash Point Flammable Limits- Upper Lower NA NA NA NA Flash Point Method Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing media appropriate to surrounding fire conditions. Fire Fighting Instructions Fire fighters and others who may be exposed to products of combustion should wear full fire fighting turn out gear (full Bunker Gear) and self-contained breathing apparatus (pressure demand NIOSH approved or equivalent). Fire fighting equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use. Fire and Explosion Hazards Material does not support combustion. 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES In Case of Spill or Leak Contain spill. Sweep or scoop up and remove to suitable container.

Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not taste or swallow. Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep container closed. Keep dry. Contact with water releases heat. Storage Keep material dry; moisture may affect product quality. Moist air or chemical vapors will reduce the operating life of this material. This material will release heat when absorbing water vapors. If a large quantity of this material quickly absorbs an equal amount of water, the material can become hot enough to cause thermal burns of the skin. Material recommended for re-packaging: high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fiberboard with moisture barrier. 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Controls Investigate engineering techniques to reduce exposures below airborne exposure limits. Provide ventilation if necessary to control exposure levels below airborne exposure limits (see below). If practical, use local mechanical exhaust ventilation at sources of air contamination such as open process equipment. Eye / Face Protection Where there is potential for eye contact, wear chemical goggles and have eye flushing equipment available. Skin Protection Wear appropriate chemical resistant protective clothing and chemical resistant gloves to prevent skin contact. Consult glove manufacturer to determine appropriate type glove material for given application. Rinse contaminated skin promptly. Wash contaminated clothing and clean protective equipment before reuse. Wash skin thoroughly after handling. Respiratory Protection Avoid breathing dust. When airborne exposure limits are exceeded (see below), use NIOSH approved respiratory protection equipment appropriate to the material and/or its components. Consult respirator manufacturer to determine appropriate type equipment for given application. Observe respirator use limitations specified by NIOSH or the manufacturer. For emergency and other conditions where exposure limit may be significantly exceeded, use an approved full face positive-pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus or positive-pressure airline with auxiliary self-contained air supply. Respiratory protection programs must comply with 29 CFR § 1910.134. Other Exposure Limits - Ingredients *OSHA and ACGIH have not established specific exposure limits for this material. However, OSHA and ACGIH have established limits for nuisance dusts or Particles Not Otherwise Specified (PNOS) which are the least stringent exposure limits applicable to dusts. The OSHA PEL/TWA for nuisance dusts is 15 mg/m3 total dust (TD), and 5 mg/m3 respirable dust (RD). The ACGIH TLV/TWA for Particles (insoluble or poorly soluble) Not Otherwise Specified (PNOS) is 10 mg/m3 inhalable particulate and 3 mg/m3 respirable particulate.

Zeolites Kidney effects were observed in rats and dogs administered high dose levels in their feed for one month, while MSDS #: 3323 Entered: 9/28/06 Product Code: 43000 Revision: 48 Issued: 19 JUN 2006 Page 4 of 7 Siliporite(R) Molecular Sieves (Extrudates or Beads) Material Safety Data Sheet Arkema Inc. EHS - MSDS Received: 9/28/06 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION blood effects were also observed in dogs. Long-term inhalation by rats and dogs produced inflammation in the lungs associated with accumulation of particulate. Chronic pneumonitis and acute bronchopneumonia were also seen in rats. No adverse effects were noted in rats and rabbits or their offspring following administration in the drinking water during pregnancy. Quartz Chronic inhalation of crystalline silica may cause a progressive pneumoconiosis (a disabling lung disease) called silicosis. Data from animal studies on crystalline forms of silica confirm the capacity of free crystalline silica to induce a fibrinogenic response in lungs. Studies on a variety of laboratory animals (rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and monkeys) using inhalation as well as intratracheal routes of exposure indicate the ability of crystalline silica to produce silicosis similar to that seen in man. In addition, experiments in animals have confirmed human experience that the presence of crystalline silica in the lung increased susceptibility to tuberculosis and other lung infections. Crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz is classified as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and respirable forms of crystalline silica are listed as substances known to be a human carcinogen by the National Toxicology Program. Epidemiology studies cited by IARC give indications of increased risk for lung cancer from inhaled crystalline silica (quartz) resulting from occupational exposure. Studies involving heavy industrial exposure to silica in granite and foundry workers, brick factories and sandblasting produced increased levels of protein and enzymes in urine, which is indicative of kidney damage. 12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Ecotoxicological Information No data are available.
