TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Toxicological information appears in this section when such data is available. Acute toxicity Acute oral toxicity Low toxicity if swallowed. Small amounts swallowed incidentally as a result of normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury; however, swallowing larger amounts may cause injury. Single dose oral LD50 has not been determined. Acute dermal toxicity Prolonged skin contact is unlikely to result in absorption of harmful amounts. The dermal LD50 has not been determined. Acute inhalation toxicity At room temperature, exposure to vapor is minimal due to low volatility; vapor from heated material may cause respiratory irritation. This material contains mineral and/or inorganic fillers. There is essentially no potential for inhalation exposure to these fillers incidental to industrial handling due to the physical state. The LC50 has not been determined. Skin corrosion/irritation Prolonged contact may cause skin irritation with local redness. Repeated contact may cause moderate skin irritation with local redness. Material may stick to skin causing irritation upon removal. Serious eye damage/eye irritation May cause eye irritation. Sensitization A component in this mixture has caused allergic skin reactions in humans. Page 7 of 19 Product name: BETAMATE™ 4601 Structural Adhesive Issue Date: 06/07/2016 For respiratory sensitization: No relevant data found. Specific Target Organ Systemic Toxicity (Single Exposure) Evaluation of available data suggests that this material is not an STOT-SE toxicant. Specific Target Organ Systemic Toxicity (Repeated Exposure) Contains component(s) which have been reported to cause effects on the following organs in animals: Kidney. Liver. Carcinogenicity Many studies have been conducted to assess the potential carcinogenicity of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBPA). Indeed, the most recent review of the available data by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has concluded that DGEBPA is not classified as a carcinogen. Although some weak evidence of carcinogenicity has been reported in animals, when all of the data are considered, the weight of evidence does not show that DGEBPA is carcinogenic. Teratogenicity Contains component(s) which, in laboratory animals, have been toxic to the fetus only at doses toxic to the mother. Resins based on the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBPA) did not cause birth defects or other adverse effects on the fetus when pregnant rabbits were exposed by skin contact, the most likely route of exposure, or when pregnant rats or rabbits were exposed orally. Reproductive toxicity Bisphenol A affected reproduction in rats and mice, but only at high exposure levels that exceeded the body’s capacity to metabolize and deactivate the chemical. Maintaining exposures below appropriate workplace exposure limits should avoid these and other effects. Mutagenicity Contains component(s) which were negative in some in vitro genetic toxicity studies and positive in others. Contains component(s) which were negative in animal genetic toxicity studies. Aspiration Hazard Based on physical properties, not likely to be an aspiration hazard.
