Trade name Nautilus EPOXY H. B. componente A
Chemical description: Epoxy resin based compound.
Supplier: Cecchi Gustavo & C. srl
Emergency telephone number: +39 0584/383694
2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
When brought into contact with the eyes, the product causes irritation that may last for over 24
hours, and upon brought into contact with the skin it causes inflammation if it is not removed
immediately.
If brought into contact with the skin, the product may cause sensitisation of the skin.
This product is a threat to the environment; it is toxic for aquatic organisms following acute
exposure.
In the long term this product may have negative effects on the aquatic environment, because it is
not easily biodegradable and/or bioaccumulable.

Use protection for the airways.
6. MEASURES IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL RELEASE
Measures for personal safety:
Use a mask, gloves and protective clothing.
Environmental measures:
Limit leakages with earth or sand.
If the product has flown off into a water course, into the drainage system, or has contaminated
the ground or vegetation, notify the responsible authorities.
Cleaning methods:
Rapidly collect the product. To do so, wear a mask and protective clothing.
If the product is in a liquid form, stop it from entering the drainage system.
Recover the product for re-use if possible, or for elimination in compliance with waste disposal
regulations in force. The product might, where appropriate, be absorbed by inert material.
After the product has been removed, rinse the involved area and materials with water that
must be disposed in compliance with regulations in force.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling precautions:

Required where ventilation/aspiration is insufficient or exposure is prolonged, or for
applications in which the product is sprayed or heated.
Required in case of machining or applications that release dusts.
Protection for hands:
Use protective gloves.
For an extended exposure of the product, wear nitrile/neoprene gloves.
Eye protection:
Required in case of machining or applications that release dusts.
Safety goggles.
Protection for skin:
Use clothing that provides complete protection to the skin.
