Material Safety Data Sheet MSDS in accordance with 2001/58/CE XPAN - Extruded Polystyrene Foam Panels 1. Product identification Product Name: XPAN - extruded polystyrene insulating panels Manufacturer: ZENTYSS SRL, Buzau, Transilvaniei St., No. 32, CP 120012, Romania. tel. + 40.338.101.376, fax: +40.338.101 303 2. Composition / Informations regarding components Extruded polystyrene foam containing a halogenated flame retardant system. Component CAS # Styrene, polymers 9003-53-6 Copolymer mixture Trade secret Talc 14807-96-6 Flame Retardant Massterbatch 3194-55-6 Butane and CO2 gaseous blowing Agent* Butane 106-97-8 CO2 124-38-9 Amount > 90.0 % < 5.0 % < 0.5 % 2.8 % * this component is eliminated in production and maturation phases. Traces of residual gas can be eliminated during storage and use 3. Hazards Identification • Non-hazardous in finishing form. The product is not hazardous to users under normal use. • Residual quantities of process chemicals, styrene and blowing agents are insignificant. Possible accumulation of residual blowing agents can occur if storage in warehouses or containers shall be closed, unventilated. • The product is organic and therefore combustible if exposed to intense heat or a fire. Toxic fumes may be released in fire situations. Static electricity may be an ignition source for initiating the accumulation of blowing agents. • Polystyrene melts at high temperature and molten droplets may cause skin burns. • Fumes/vapors released during thermal operations such as hot wire cutting may cause respiratory irritation. 4. First Aid • Eye contamination will cause irritation – wash with clean running water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice. • Skin contamination will cause some irritation – wash with clean water and soap. If in contact with molten material, treat affected area immediately with cold water and seek medical attention. Do not attempt to remove any molten or solidified material from the skin. • Inhalation of dust – Dust particles from cutting are unlikely to be of inhalable dimensions unless power tools are used. If problems are experienced remove to fresh air, rinse mouth and drink water and seek medical advice • Inhalation of toxic fumes - move person to fresh air; if effects occur, consult a physician. 5. Fire Fighting Measures Extinguishing Media: Water fog or fine spray. Dry chemical fire extinguishers. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers. Foam. Fire Fighting Procedures: Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Keep people away. Soak thoroughly with water to cool and prevent re-ignition. If material is molten, do not apply direct water stream, use fine water spray, CO2 or foam. Cool surroundings with water to localize fire zone. Extinguishing Products of Combustion: those normally associated with combustion of organic hydrocarbons and should be considered toxic. Will include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrogen bromide. Dense smoke will be generated and suitable breathing apparatus should be worn when fighting fires. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Mechanical cutting, grinding or sawing can cause formation of dusts. To reduce the potential for dust explosion, do not permit dust to accumulate. Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters: In the case of continuous combustion, use selfcontained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers, boots, and gloves). 1 Material Safety Data Sheet in accordance with 2001/58/CE MSDS XPAN - Extruded Polystyrene Foam Panels 6. Accidental Release Measures The product is in solid form and poses no hazard • Personal Precautions: There are no special required instructions. • Environmental Precautions: There are no special required instructions. Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Contain spilled material if possible. Sweep up. Collect in suitable and properly labeled containers. XPS waste - are not dangerous, it collects and recycles 100%. 7. Handling and Storage • Storage - in ventilated warehouses. Do not store near to any sources of heat. • Handling General Handling: Fabrication methods which involve cutting into this product may release the blowing agent(s) remaining in the cells. Provide adequate ventilation to assure localized concentrations in release areas are maintained below the lower flammable limit. This product is combustible and may constitute a fire hazard if improperly used or installed. • Avoid dust generation during secondary processing. Hand cutting tools should be used when possible. If power tools are used, suitable dust extraction should be used and / or respiratory and eye protection. 8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection Respiratory Protection • No MEL (Minimum Equipment List) applicable but if dust is generated it is recommended that a disposable face mask is used to improve comfort. Hand and Skin Protection • No special precautions but gloves may be worn for comfort. Use gloves to protect from mechanical injury. Selection of gloves will depend on the task. Eye Protection • When cutting or processing with power tools, or working with product above head height, eye protection complying with EN 166 is advised. 9. Physical and Chemical Properties Appearance – rigid closed cell plastic foam Color: orange (usually), but may be made in other colours Odor: Odorless Melting Point – above 110ºC Flash Point – above 300ºC Autoignition Temperature: 355 °C Flammable Limits In Air Lower: Not applicable Solubility – insoluble in water and generally chemical inert. Soluble in organic solvents. 10. Stability and Reactivity Stable under normal conditions of use. Avoid exposure to heat and flames, and prolonged exposure to sunlight. Incompatible Materials: Avoid contact with oxidizing. Resistant to many chemicals but not to solvents. Care should be taken in the choice of adhesives to be used with XPS. Decomposition Products – fumes from molten material and smoke from fires involving the product can contain toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrogen bromide. Conditions to Avoid: Avoid temperatures above 300°C. Exposure to elevate d temperatures can cause product to decompose. 11. Toxicological Information Extruded polystyrene is non-toxic and not irritating to the skin or eyes. LD50 Oral: Not applicable LD50 Skin: not applicable LD50 Inhalation: not applicable 2 Material Safety Data Sheet in accordance with 2001/58/CE MSDS XPAN - Extruded Polystyrene Foam Panels 12. Ecological Information The product is not biodegradable and has no known adverse environmental effects. It is free of CFC and HCFC blowing agents and complies with EU Regulation EC/3093/94 substances, which deplete the ozone layer. ECOTOXICITY Not expected to be acutely toxic to aquatic organisms. 13. Disposal Considerations XPS panels and waste processing results are 100% recyclable. Waste material is not classified as hazardous waste and may be disposed of in normal landfill or by incineration under controlled and approved conditions. 14. Transport Information Not classified as hazardous for transportation. Transport: with the trucks covered - that was not sealed, allowing natural ventilation. It is the responsibility of the transporting organization to follow all applicable laws, regulations and rules relating to the transportation of the material. 15. Regulatory Information No specific regulations apply. At all times general health and safety guidance. A MEL of 10mg/m³ 8 hour TWA applies to all inhalable dusts. 16. Other Information Recommended uses and restrictions: Thermal insulation. For industrial use. XPAN panels are manufactured using zero ODP, butane and CO2 as a blowing agents. XPAN panels not contain CFC or HCFC (CFC – HCFC FREE) This Safety Data Sheet has been drafted in accordance with EU Directive 91/155/EC as amended by 2001/58/EC. 3
