XI. TOXICOLOGICAL Hexane, 1,6-diisocyanato-, homopolymer

INFORMATION ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour, through the skin, by ingestion, skin
and/or eye contact.
SYMPTOMS: Dermatitis, skin and respiratory tract irritation, immune sensitization and asthma, and less commonly hypersensitivity
Page 3 of 9 pneumonitis.
 UNYMARINE FINISH SILVER ALUMINUM, HARDENER

MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Skin Allergies, Eczema, asthma, Respiratory disorders
ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY: The acute oral LD50 for rats was greater than 5000 mg/kg, hence, classification is not necessary.

ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY: The acute oral LD50 for rabbits was greater than 5000 mg/kg, therefore, classification is not necessary.

ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY: The acute oral LC50 for rats was about 1.15 mg/L and is classified as Category 4.
SKIN CORROSION/IRRITATION: Described as slightly irritating to rabbit's skin based on Draize Test made, but since the data data is
insufficient, it cannot be classified.
SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE/IRRITATION: There was a report that it is slightly irritating to rabbit's eye according to the Draize Test
conducted to aliphatic polyisocyanate resin, but further data is lacking, ergo, it cannot be classified.
RESPIRATORY / SKIN SENSITIZATION: Classified by the European Chemical Agency as Category 1 Respiratory and Skin Sensitizer
due to the reason that it may cause allergy or asthma symptoms or breathing difficulties if inhaled and may cause an allergic skin
reaction.
GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: Hexane, 1,6-diisocyanato-, homopolymer showed no mutagenic properties in two bacterial reverse
mutation assays (OECD TG 471), in a mammalian cell gene mutation assay using chinese hamster ovary cells and mouse lymphoma
cells (OECD TG 476), respectively, and in an in vitro chromosome aberration assay in V79 cells (OECD TG 473). Thus, there is no
need for classification.
CARCINOGENICITY: It is not classified as carcinogenic by International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), National Toxicology
Program (NTP), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and American Conference of Governmental Industrial
Hygienists (ACGIH).
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Based on weight of evidence, it is concluded that reproductive and developmental toxicities are not an
endpoint of concern for hexane, 1,6-diisocyanato-, homopolymer and further testing is not necessary, hence, it is not classified.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Classified as Category 3 based on description that it may cause
respiratory irritation.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.

Xylene, all isomers

ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: Xylene can affect the body if it is inhaled, if it comes in contact with the eyes or skin, or if it is swallowed. It
may enter the body through the skin.
SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Dizziness, excitement, drowsiness, incoordination, staggering gait, impaired reaction time, impaired
short-term memory; headache; eye, nose, throat irritation; corneal vacuolization; anorexia; nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain; dryness
and scaling of the skin, dermatitis; reversible liver and kidney damage after exposure to sudden high concentrations.
INGESTION ACUTE: Burning sensation in mouth and throat; abdominal pain.
TARGET ORGANS: CNS, eyes, skin, respiratory system, GI tract, blood, liver, kidneys.
ACUTE EXPOSURE: The signs and symptoms of acute exposure to xylene include headache, fatigue, irritability, lassitude, nausea,
anorexia, flatulence, irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, and motor incoordination and impairment of equilibrium. Flushing, redness of
the face, a sensation of increased body heat, increased salivation, tremors, dizziness, confusion, and cardiac irritability have also been
reported.
CHRONIC EXPOSURE: The signs and symptoms of chronic exposure to xylene may include conjunctivitis; dryness of the nose, throat,
and skin; dermatitis; and kidney and liver damage.
ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY: Based on the rat LD50 (oral route) value of 3,500 mg/kg, it is classified as Category 5.
ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY: Classification is not possible because the data available is not enough for classification.
ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY: Not classified based on the rat LC50 (4 hour inhalation exposure) value of 29.08 mg/L (MOE Risk
Assessment Vol.1, 2002) (equivalent to 6,700ppm) was lower than 90% of the saturated vapor concentration (8,000ppm) under a
saturated vapour pressure of 0.8 kPa (20 ºC), the substance was considered as "vapour containing substantially no mist" and was set as
out of category.
SKIN CORROSION / IRRITATION: Moderately irritating to rabbit's skin following a 24-hour exposure to 0.5 mL mixed xylenes under
semi-occlusive conditions. Hence, it is classified as Category 2.
SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE / EYE IRRITATION: Moderately irritating to rabbit's eyes. Two drops of xylene into the eyes of rabbits
resulted in slight conjunctival irritation and very slight transient corneal injury, therefore, it is classified as Category 2A.
RESPIRATORY / SKIN SENSITIZATION: Respiratory sensitization: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
Skin sensitization: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: Xylene is not classified as a germ cell mutagen based on the negative data on human multi-generation
epidemiological studies and somatic cell mutagenicity tests in vivo (micronucleus/chromosome tests) and the absence of data on
heritable mutagenicity tests, germ cell mutagenicity tests in vivo and germ cell genotoxicity testsin vivo, described in CERI-NITE
Page 4 of 9 Hazard Assessment No.62 (2004), CaPSAR (1993), IARC (1999) and NTP DB (Access on December 2005).
 UNYMARINE FINISH SILVER ALUMINUM, HARDENER

CARCINOGENICITY: For the reason that xylene is classified as Category A4 by American Conference of Governmental Industrial
Hygienists (ACGIH), Group 3 by International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and Group D by United States Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), it is set as out of category.

REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Several human studies examined exposure to organic solvents (including mixed xylenes) and
developmental effects. An increased potential for spontaneous abortions among the wives of occupationally exposed men was reported.
However, no conclusions can be drawn from these studies because they all involved concurrent exposure to multiple chemicals. Mixed
xylenes have been shown to produce developmental effects, such as an increased incidence of skeletal variations in fetuses, delayed
ossification, fetal resorptions, and decreased fetal body weight in animals via inhalation exposure. Some studies observed maternal
toxicity as well. Thus, xylene is classified as presumed human reproductive toxicant (Category 1B).

SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Based on the human evidence including "throat irritation, severe
pulmonary congestion, alveolar hemorrhage, pulmonary edema, congestion accompanying hepatomegaly, centrilobular vacuolation of
hepatocytes, nerve cell damage associated with dot hemorrhage, swelling and disappearance of Nissl bodies, limb cyanosis, a transient
increase in serum transaminase activity, an increase in the blood level of urea, a decrease in endogenous creatinine clearance in the
urine, liver damage, severe kidney damage, amnesia, coma" and "pulmonary congestion, pulmonary edema, focal alveolar hemorrhage,"
it is classified as Category 1 Target organ toxicant and the evidence from animal studies including "strong narcotic effect," it is classified
as Category 3 Target organ toxicant. The basis for the classification includes data on xylene with unknown composition or containing
other substances.

SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: Based on the human evidence including "eye/nose irritation, thirst"
and "chronic headache, chest pain, abnormal electroencephalogram, dyspnea, cyanosis of the hands, fever, a decrease in WBC count,
discomfort, impairment of pulmonary function, a decrease in working capacity, physical/mental disorders," it is classified as Category 1
Target organ toxicant.

ASPIRATION HAZARD: Classified as Category 2 Aspiration toxicant based on the report that aspiration of xylene or acute exposure to
high vapor concentrations of this substance may cause chemical pneumonitis, hemorrhage into the air spaces, and pulmonary edema. A
worker exposed to the vapors of a solvent containing 75 percent xylene (approximate airborne xylene concentration of 60 to 350 ppm)
developed giddiness, anorexia, and vomiting. After inhalation of high (not further specified) concentrations of xylene, workers may
become flushed, feel hot, and experience confusion, dizziness, tremors, and other signs or symptoms of central nervous system toxicity.

2-Methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, skin absorption, ingestion, skin and/or eye
contact.
SYMPTOMS: Irritation of eyes, nose, throat; Cough. Dizziness. Drowsiness. Headache. Nausea. Sore throat. Dry skin. Abdominal pain.
Diarrhoea. Unconsciousness.
TARGET ORGANS: Eyes, skin, respiratory system
INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes and the respiratory tract. Exposure at high level may result
in central nervous system depression.
EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: The liquid defats the skin.
ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY: Oral rat LD50 value is 8532 mg/Kg, hence, it is not classified.
ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY: Dermal rabbit LD50 value is greater than 5000mg/kg, therefore, it is not classified.
ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY: Exposure of rats to a saturated atmosphere of 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate at a nominal
concentration of 4,345 ppm during 6 hours caused no adverse effects and hence not classified.
SKIN CORROSION / IRRITATION: 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate is not irritating based on methodology equivalent or similar to
OECD Guideline 404 (Acute Dermal Irritation / Corrosion), thus, it is not classified.
SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE / EYE IRRITATION: 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate is not irritating based test guideline equivalent or
similar to OECD Guideline 405 (Acute Eye Irritation / Corrosion), therefore, it is not classified.
RESPIRATORY / SKIN SENSITIZATION: Respiratory sensitization: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
Skin sensitization: 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate is not sensitizing when the Magnusson-Kigman maximization was used in guinea
pigs, therefore, it is not classified.
GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate did not cause mutations in the Ames Salmonela reverse mutation
assay both with or without S-9 metabolic activation. Hence, the test material was classified as negative in the bacterial reverse mutation
assay (e.g. Ames test) and also, propylene glycol methyl ether acetate does not induce unscheduled DNA synthesis based on OECD
Guideline 482 (Genetic Toxicology: DNA Damage and Repair, Unscheduled DNA Synthesis in Mammalian CellsIn Vitro ). Therefore, it
is not classified.
CARCINOGENICITY: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
Page 5 of 9
 UNYMARINE FINISH SILVER ALUMINUM, HARDENER

REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Reproductive toxicity of 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate in rats by oral administration was not observed
at the highest dose level of 1000 mg/kg and hence considered as NOAEL (No Observed Adverse Effect Level) according to OECD
Guideline 422 (Combined Repeated Dose Toxicity Study with the Reproduction / Developmental Toxicity Screening Test). Furthermore,
no developmental toxicity for inhalation was observed at nominal dose of 0, 500, 2,000, 4,000 ppm (0, 2700, 10800, 21600 mg/m3) based
on Assessment of the Developmental Toxicity of 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate in Sprague-Dawley rats cunducted by U.S. Army
Environmental Hygiene Agency in 1989. Thus, it is not classified.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: Classification is not possible due to insufficient data available.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.

Ethylbenzene
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, ingestion, skin and/or eye contact.
SYMPTOMS: Irritation eyes, skin, mucous membrane; headache; dermatitis; narcosis, coma
TARGET ORGANS: Eyes, skin, respiratory system, central nervous system
INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance is irritating to the eyes , the skin and the respiratory tract. Swallowing the
liquid may cause aspiration into the lungs with the risk of chemical pneumonitis. The substance may cause effects on the central nervous
system. Exposure above the occupational exposure limit (OEL) could cause lowering of consciousness.

EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: This substance is possibly carcinogenic to humans. The substance may
have effects on the kidneys and liver, resulting in impaired functions. Repeated contact with skin may cause dryness and cracking.

ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY: The LD50 (Rat, oral) calculated was 3500 mg/kg, thus, it is classified as Category 5.
ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY : The dermal LD50 for ethylbenzene in New Zealand White rabbits was calculated as 15415 mg/kg
bodyweight. This value is out of category in the GHS Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, hence, it is not classified.
ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY: The acute inhalation LC50,vapor, 4 hours for ethylbenzene in Carworth Wistar rats was calculated as
17.8 mg/L (4000 ppm) body weight. For this fact, it is classified as Category 4.
SKIN CORROSION/IRRITATION: Undiluted ethylbenzene has been shown to produce moderate irritation when applied to the
uncovered skin of rabbits. The application of undiluted ethylbenzene to the ear and to the shaved abdomen of rabbits up to 20 times
during a 4-week period resulted in moderate irritation. There was erythema and edema with superficial necrosis and exfoliation of large
patches of skin. From this fact, ethylbenzene is classified as Category 3 (Mild skin irritant).
SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE/IRRITATION: Drop application to rabbit eyes caused slight irritation and no corneal injury demonstrable by
fluorescein staining. Standard testing on rabbit eyes gave an injury grade of 2 on a scale of 10. Ethylbenzene is classified as Category
2B (mildly irritating to eyes).
RESPIRATORY / SKIN SENSITIZATION: Respiratory sensitization: Classification is not possible due to insuffucient data available.
Skin sensitization: Classification is not possible due to insuffucient data available.

GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: In a National Toxicology Program study, ethylbenzene was not mutagenic in Salmonella tests and did
not induce chromosomal aberrations or sister chromatid exchange in Chinese hamster ovary CHO) cellsin vitro, although it did induce
trifluorothymidine resistance in mouse lymphoma cells at the highest concentration tested (80 mg/litre). There was no increase of
micronuclei in the peripheral blood of mice exposed to ethylbenzene. Based on these data, ethylbenzene is not classified as mutagenic.

CARCINOGENICITY: IARC reported that there is inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene but there is
sufficient evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene. Thus, ethylbenzene is possibly carcinogenic to
humans (Group 2B). ACGIH classified ethylbenzene as A3; Confirmed animal carcinogen with unknown relevance to humans. From
these facts, ethylbenzene is classified as Category 2 (Suspected human carcinogen).
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Based on the description of mice/rat teratogenicity tests: Toxic effects on the embryo (urinary
malformation) are observed at dosing levels not toxic to maternal animals, it is classified as Category 1B (Presumed human reproductive
toxicant).
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Single high exposures to ethylbenzene through inhalation cause
irritation of the mucous membranes and central nervous system effects (2180 ppm). Ethylbenzene is classified as Category 2 (central
nervous system) and Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation).
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: The available data are insufficient to draw conclusions, hence,
classification is not possible.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Classified as Category 1 Aspiration toxicant based on the description in International Chemical Safety Cards
(ICSC): Ethylbenzene, if swallowed, may cause chemical pneumonia due to misswallowing. The substance is a hydrocarbon, the
kinematic viscosity of which stands at 0.6 mm2/s (25 ºC).

Hexamethylene diisocyanate
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour, by inhalation of its aerosol and
through the skin.
SYMPTOMS: Irritation of eyes, skin, respiratory system; cough, dyspnea (breathing difficulty), bronchitis, wheezing, pulmonary edema,
asthma; corneal damage, skin blisters.
TARGET ORGANS: Eyes, skin, respiratory system.
INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C; on
spraying or dispersing, however, much faster.
EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes, the skin and and the respiratory tract. Exposure far above
the OEL may result in respiratory sensitization.
EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
Repeated or prolonged inhalation exposure may cause asthma. Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a
doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered. The symptoms of asthma often do not become manifest until a few
hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Anyone who has
shown symptoms of asthma due to this substance should avoid all further contact with this substance. Workers exposed to this
compound may be sensitized to other isocyanates (asthma). The odour warning when the exposure limit value is exceeded is
insufficient. Do NOT take working clothes home.

ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY: The oral LD50 of hexamethylene diisocyanate is 959 mg/kg for male Wistar rats. At 263 mg/kg and above all
animals showed poor general condition and mild sedation. The oral LD50 of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate is 746 mg/kg for male albino
rats. The animals appeared to be extremely sluggish soon after dosing and all deaths occurred within the ensuing 4-hour period. It is
classified as Category 4.
ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY: Based on the rabbit LD50 (dermal route) value of 570 mg/kg representing the lowest value published, it is
classified as Category 3.
ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY: According on the rat LC50 (4 hours) value of 20ppm, calculated from the testing data of rat LC50
(inhalation of vapour) of 0.31mg/L, 0.06mg/L, 0.124mg/L, 0.31mg/L and 0.15mg/L, was lower than 90% of the saturated vapour
concentration (70ppm) under a saturated vapour pressure of 0.007 kPa (25 ºC), the substance was considered as "vapour containing
substantially no mist" and was classified as Category 1 based on standard values expressed in ppm.

SKIN CORROSION/IRRITATION: In a dermal irritation/corrosion test hexamethylene diisocyanate was corrosive to the skin of White
New Zealand rabbits according to OECD Test Guideline 404. Immediately after patch removal all treated animals showed severe edema
and erythema (grade 4). The application area was swollen bloodily within 4 hours. 24 hours after patch removal all animals showed
induration and necrosis of the application site. Within the 8-day post-observation period no restitution with normal skin findings at the
application site were observed. It is classified as Category 1. The substance should be placed in Category 1A from the viewpoint of
safety if further subclassification is needed.

SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE/IRRITATION: In an acute eye irritation/corrosion test HDI was corrosive to the eyes of New Zealand White
rabbits according to OECD Test Guideline 405 (Acute Eye Irritation / Corrosion). Damage to the eye was already caused 30 seconds
after instillation (right eye rinsed with saline 30 sec. after instillation). One hour to 8 days after instillation (left eye not rinsed) corneal
opacity, irritation of the iris, conjunctival redness and chemosis were observed in all animals. For that reason, it is classified as an eye
irritant Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye).

RESPIRATORY / SKIN SENSITIZATION: People exposed to hexamethylene diisocyanate for a long time (a few months to a few years)
have shown an allergic, asthma-like syndrome. The symptoms consist of shortness of breath, wheezing, bronchitis, and coughing. These
symptoms are not usually seen when the person is not using a product that contains hexamethylene diisocyanate, but will start up again
when they begin to use hexamethylene diisocyanate products again.

Laboratory animals exposed to very high concentrations of hexamethylene diisocyanate had pneumonia and difficulty in breathing, and
some died. Studies in animals have also shown that breathing high concentrations can irritate the eyes, nose, and throat. When placed
on the skin of animals, hexamethylene diisocyanate caused redness, irritation, and skin damage. Based on the preceding description,
hexamethylene diisocyanate is classified as Category 1 Respiratory sensitizer and Category 1 Skin sensitizer.

GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: The results of the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay using vapour-phase exposure for hexamethylene
diisocyanate indicate that hexamethylene diisocyanate does not appear to induce any mutagenic activity with Salmonella typhimurium
TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100; using vapor-phase exposure hexamethylene diisocyanate did not induce mutagenic effects in the
in vitro gene mutation assay (HGPRT test) with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in the presence and absence of a metabolic
activation system; hexamethylene diisocyanate was also negative in the mouse micronucleus assay. For these facts, it is not classified
to be mutagenic.

CARCINOGENICITY: It is not classified as carcinogenic for the reason that the Department of Health and Human Services, the
International Agency for Research on Cancer, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have not classified hexamethylene
diisocyanate as to its human carcinogenicity and no carcinogenicity studies are available in people; and an animal study showed no
Page 7 of 9 increase in cancer when rats breathed air containing hexamethylene diisocyanate for 2 years.
 UNYMARINE FINISH SILVER ALUMINUM, HARDENER

REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Based on no evidence of adverse effects on reproductive capacity of parental animals and development
of filial generation, it is not classified.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Based on the evidence from animal studies: "the clinical symptoms of
inhalation exposure to rats included pulmonary edema and pneumonia." The effects on experimental animals were observed at dosing
levels within the guidance value ranges for Category 1.

SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: Based on the human evidence including "eye, nasal and
respiratory irritation, coughing, chest discomfort," and the evidence from animal studies including "tracheal inflammation, turbinate
epithelial necrosis, hyperplasia of squamous epithelium in turbinate," "pulmonary epidermal hyperplasia, pneumonitis, coagulation of
histiocytes, degeneration of nasal olfactory epithelium, hyperkeratosis, inflammation or ulceration" following inhalation exposure to rats.
