Arctic Silver Incorporated MSDS # AS5_3 SECTION 1: CHEMICAL PRODUCT AND COMPANY INFORMATION Company Address: 9826 W. Legacy Ave. Visalia, CA 93291 Product Information: 559-740-0912 Medical Emergency Toll Free: 877-740-5015 Medical Emergency Alternate: 303-739-1110 Prepared by: Nevin House Revision Date: August 23, 2012 Product Identification Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound Product Code: AS5 SECTION 2: COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Product Ingredient Information Silver (Metallic) Boron Nitride Zinc Oxide Aluminum Oxide Ester Oil Blend SECTION 3: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION CAS No. 7440-22-4 10043-11-5 1314-13-2 1344-28-1 Non-hazardous Emergency Overview: Grey grease. This product is nonflammable. Liquid will irritate eyes. Potential Health Effects: Eyes: This product is an eye and mucus membrane irritant. Skin: Not expected to be a skin irritant. Repeated and prolonged skin contact could cause minor skin irritation. Ingestion: Silver ingestion may result in generalized argyria. Inhalation: No specific information available. Pre-Existing Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: eye SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES Eyes: Immediately flush with large amounts of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Have eyes examined by a Physician. Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops/persists. Wash clothes separately before reuse. Ingestion: If appreciable quantities are swallowed, seek medical advice. Inhalation: Not likely route of exposure. If inhaled and irritation occurs, remove to fresh air. If irritation persists, call a Physician. SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point: > 600°F (Setaflash) LEL/UEL: NA (% by volume in air) Extinguishing Media: Use carbon dioxide or dry chemicals for small fires, aqueous foam or water for large fires involving this material. Fire Fighting Instructions: Remove all ignition sources. Closed containers may rupture due to build-up of pressure when exposed to extreme heat. Fight fire from a safe distance. As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus (pressure demand, OSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Large Spills: Remove all sources of ignition (sparks, open flames, etc.). Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and appropriate personal protective equipment. Ventilate area and contain spill with sand or other absorbent material. Collect spill by scooping up liquids and absorbent material and place in a sealed metal container for proper disposal. Do not flush to sewer. Prevent material from entering storm sewers, ditches that lead to waterways and ground. Small Spills: Absorb spill with absorbent material, then place in a sealed metal container for proper disposal. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Overheating may cause container to rupture. Use explosion proof electrical equipment. Containers must be kept closed and ventilation provided to prevent vapor concentration build-up. Store in a cool dry place. Do not breathe vapor or get liquid in eyes, or on skin and clothing. Keep away from heat or sources of ignition. Check all containers for leaks. Wear protective clothing as in section above. Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors or contact with skin. Ensure that all equipment is grounded to prevent static discharge. Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied due to solid or vapor residue. All hazard precautions given in this data sheet must be observed for empty containers. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
