Chemical name Weight % OSHA Exposure Limits ACGIH Exposure Limits
Polylactide resin >98 None None
9051-89-2
All ingredients in quantities > 1.0% (0.1% for carcinogens) that are potentially hazardous per OSHA definitions.
Other Standards: This material can generate Particulates Not Otherwise Classifiable (PNOC). The
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) PEL/TWA for PNOC is 15
mg/m3 for total dust and 5 mg/m3 for the respirable fraction. The American Conference
of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) TLV/TWA for PNOC is 10 mg/m3 for
inhalable particulates and 3mg/m3 for respirable particulates.

5.FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability:
Autoignition temperature: 388C
Flammability Limits in Air:
Flammable limits in air - lower (%): Not applicable
Flammable limits in air - upper (%): Not applicable
Suitable extinguishing media: Foam. Water. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemical. Alcohol resistant
foams are preferred if available. General-purpose synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may
function, but much less effectively.
Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons: No information available
Hazardous decomposition products: Burning produces obnoxious and toxic fumes Aldehydes
Carbon monoxide (CO) carbon dioxide (CO2)
Special protective equipment for firefighters: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
Under fire conditions: Cool containers / tanks with spray water. Water mist may be used to cool
closed containers.
Other information: Fine dust dispersed in air may ignite. Risks of ignition followed by flame propagation
or secondary explosions shall be prevented by avoiding accumulation of dust, e.g. on floors and ledges.
12.ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Mobility: No data available
Bioaccumulation: Does not bioaccumulate. Inherently biodegradable.
Ecotoxicity effects: EC50/72h/algae > 1100 mg/L
