Page 1 of 3 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Regal Polyester – AH82, SH71, SH82 & SR50 SECTION IV – FIRST AID MEASURESINHALATION: If exposed to fumes from overheating or combustion, move to fresh air. Consult physician if symptoms persist.SKIN CONTACT: Very unlikely for PET to have hazardous effect on skin, but it is recommended to wash hands and skin after handling. If molten PET polymer gets on skin, cool rapidly with cold water. Obtain medical attention immediately for any resulting thermal burns.EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with plenty of water. Obtain medical attention if necessary.INGESTION: Consult physician if ingested. SECTION V – FIRE FIGHTING MEASURESRegal Polyester film is combustible.During processing, film may build up static charge. Static Eliminators are strongly recommendedFIRE AND EXPLOSIVE HAZARDSDuring combustion, hazardous byproducts are produced; these include carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, organic acids, aldehydes and alcohols.EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water, Foam, Dry Chemical and Carbon Dioxide.FIRE EXTINGUISHING INSTRUCTIONS: Keep personnel removed and upwind of fire. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus with full proactive equipment. SECTION VI – DISPOSAL METHODSPreferred options for disposal include RECYCLING, INCINERATION, with ENERGY RECOVERY and LANDFILL.Treatment, Storage, Transportation, and Disposal must be done in accordance with applicable Federal, State and Local Regulations.
