ATX462 Precolored is a talc-filled, impact-modified polypropylene compound with a colored solid plastic pellet appearance and slight to no odor. It is not classified as hazardous, but spilled pellets pose a slip hazard, and dust accumulation may cause explosions. High-temperature processing fumes may be irritating to the eyes, nose, throat, and skin. The product may contain quartz and carbon black, which can cause cancer and lung disease with prolonged inhalation. Precautions include maintaining adequate ventilation, keeping away from sources of ignition, and wearing protective equipment. In case of skin contact, eye contact, ingestion, or inhalation, first aid measures include rinsing, flushing, and seeking medical attention. The product is flammable, but will not burn readily, and fire-fighting measures include using water spray, dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide. Accidental release measures involve restricting access, wearing protective equipment, and containing spilled material. Handling and storage precautions include taking necessary precautions for personal protection, grounding, and using closed systems or local exhaust ventilation.
