POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS (CHRONIC and OVEREXPOSURE)
Tin:
Dust or fumes may cause irritation of the skin mucous membranes and may result in a benign Pneumoconiosis (Stannosis).
Silver:
May cause discoloration of eyes and skin (Argyia).
Bismuth:
May cause foul breath, a blue-black line on the gums, and Stomatitis.
Antimony:
May cause gastrointestinal upset, sleeplessness, irritability, and muscular pain.
Indium:

CHRONIC / ACUTE HEALTH HAZARDS
Lead:
Women of child-bearing age should avoid exposure to lead and its inorganic compounds due to post-natal effects. Lead can cause potential injury to
a developing fetus and possible effects on reproduction. Exposure to high levels of airborne or ingested lead may produce symptoms of anemia, weakness,
constipation, nausea, and abdominal pain. Prolonged exposure may result in kidney and/or nervous system involvement.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS POSSIBLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:
Diseases of the blood-forming organs, kidneys, nervous and possibly reproductive
systems. Occupational Asthma.
SECTION 2 NOTES:
Chip Quik Inc. does not recommend, manufacture, market, or endorse any of its products for human consumption.
WARNING! This product can expose you to Lead, which is known to the State of California to cause
Chronic Toxicity-Proposition 65, State of California:
Cancer, Birth Defects, or other Reproductive Harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. Federal and State Laws prohibit the use of lead
solder in making joints in any private or public potable (drinking) water supply system. Breathing fumes may cause respiratory system irritation or damage.
After handling solder, wash hands with soap and water before eating or smoking.

SECTION 3 NOTES:
* denotes a chemical that is also listed in 29CFR 1910.1200(D) #4 as a known or suspected cancer hazard.
+ denotes a chemical regulated as toxic by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as outlined in 40CFR Part 372 (section 313).
Percentages of individual components are not listed as this information is considered a trade secret.
(1) Per 29 CFR 1910 the mixture has not been tested as a whole. All hazardous components, which comprise 1% of the mixture (0.1% carcinogenic), are
listed. Percentages of individual components are not listed as this information is considered a trade secret.
(2) The identity of the specific chemical(s) is being withheld as a trade secret per 29 CFR 1910.1200. The hazardous properties of these ingredients are
Flush with plenty of water, contact a physician. If contact lenses can be removed easily, flush eyes without contact lenses.
SKIN:
Wash affected area with plenty of warm, soapy water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
INGESTION:
Call a physician or Poison Control Center immediately. Do not induce vomiting. Drink large amounts of water. Never give anything by mouth
to an unconscious person
INHALATION:
Remove to fresh air. Support respiration if required. If not breathing, seek immediate medical attention.

Excessive overexposure may result in an acute or chronic illness. If symptoms are present, the individual should be immediately removed
from exposure and a physician consulted.
5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:

3
15 min.
Extraction is necessary to remove fumes evolved during reflow.
Also see section 3.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Use only with production equipment designed for use with solder paste.
VENTILATION:
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below TLVs.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
A (US: NIOSH; EU: EN 140:1998, EN 14387:2004 A)-approved air-purifying respirator with fume/organic chemical
cartridge should be worn when airborne concentrations may be exceeded. General and local exhaust ventilation is the preferred means of protection.
EYE PROTECTION:
Use with appropriate eye protection: Goggles or face shield (EU: EN 166-S 3 9).
SKIN PROTECTION:
Protective gloves should be worn when the possibility of skin contact exists (EU: EN 374-1:2003).
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT:
Work clothes should be worn and laundered in accordance with current Lead (Pb) standards (US: OSHA).
WORK HYGIENIC PRACTICES:
Cosmetics/Food/Drink/Tobacco should not be consumed or used in areas where solder products may be used. Always
wash hands after handling soldering products and before applying or using cosmetics/food/drink/tobacco.
OTHER:
Maintain eye wash stations in work areas. Avoid the use of contact lenses in high fume areas. Clean protective equipment regularly. Clean up
spills immediately.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
INHALATION:
This product does not present a risk at ambient temperatures. The flux fumes evolved during soldering will irritate the nose, throat and lungs. Repeated or
prolonged exposure to flux fumes may cause an allergic affect which may lead to occupational asthma.
SKIN:
Contact with flux fumes and flux residues may cause irritation and sensitization.
Harmful organic fumes and toxic oxide fumes may form at elevated temperatures. Lead oxide
fumes and/or Lead particulate may be evolved.
NE
Health Hazards (acute and chronic):
Contact with dust and fumes may cause skin, eye and respiratory irritation. Ingestion and/or inhalation of material or
fumes may result in flu like symptoms, insomnia, muscle weakness, nausea and abdominal pain. Gross inhalation or ingestion may be toxic and can result
in death. Symptoms of toxicity may take hours or days to manifest. Chronic exposures, inhalation and ingestion, may result in kidney, red blood cell,
reproductive and nervous system effects. Health effects may be cumulative over many exposures. Studies show that health risks vary by individual.
Minimize exposure as a precaution. See OSHA 29CFR 1910.1025(subpart Z) for more information.
