Storage & Stability :
Hardener PPA -7151 should be stored in a cool dry place at 18 - 25°c in the sealed containers to achieve shelf life of minimum one year. Product can react with moisture & carbon dioxide in the air. This may result in increased viscosity & reduced activity.
Handling Precaution :
May be harmful if ingested or absorbed through the skin & can cause sensitization. Will cause severe inflammation in contact with eye & skin. Wash thoroughly after handling. Adequate ventilation is essential during application. Containers should be tightly closed when not in use or during transportation. Do not inhale mist or vapours. It is recommended to use gloves, safety glasses & protective clothing for safe handling.
First AID :
In case of Inhalation : Remove to fresh air & give oxygen if breathing is difficult Ingestion : Give plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting. Contact a physician Contact with Eyes : Flush eyes with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes Contact with skin : Immediately wash with mild soap & water
