International Chemical Safety Cards BISPHENOL A ICSC: 0634 4,4'-(1-Methylethylidene)bisphenol 4,4'-Isopropylidenediphenol C15H16O2 / (CH3)2C(C6H4OH)2 Molecular mass: 228.3 ICSC #    0634 CAS #     80-05-7 RTECS # SL6300000 April 20, 1994 Peer reviewed TYPES OF HAZARD/ EXPOSURE ACUTE HAZARDS/ SYMPTOMS PREVENTION FIRST AID/ FIRE FIGHTING FIRE Combustible. NO open flames. Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide. EXPLOSION Finely dispersed particles form explosive mixtures in air. Prevent deposition of dust; closed system, dust explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! STRICT HYGIENE!  •INHALATION Cough. Sore throat. Local exhaust. Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.  •SKIN Redness. Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.  •EYES Redness. Pain. Safety goggles, or face shield. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Nausea. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. Rinse mouth. Give plenty of water to drink. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Sweep spilled substance into sealable containers; if appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder. Then remove to safe place. Personal protection: P2 filter respirator for harmful particles. Separated from acid anhydrides , acid chlorides , oxidants , food and feedstuffs . R: S: SEE IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON BACK ICSC: 0634 Prepared in the context of cooperation between the International Programme on Chemical Safety & the Commission of the European Communities (C) IPCS CEC 1994. No modifications to the International version have been made except to add the OSHA PELs, NIOSH RELs and NIOSH IDLH values.

International Chemical Safety Cards BISPHENOL A ICSC: 0634 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: WHITE CRYSTALS. PHYSICAL DANGERS: Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air.> CHEMICAL DANGERS: Reacts violently with acid anhydrides , acid chlorides , strong bases and strong oxidants . OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance is irritating to the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
