An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.
It is used as a solvent for cellulose, resins, and paints, and it has found use as an insect fumigant. [15] Polymers made from epichlorohydrin, e.g., polyamide-epichlorohydrin resins, are used in paper reinforcement and in the food industry to manufacture tea bags, coffee filters, and sausage/salami casings as well as with water purification.

These resins are used for their temperature-resistant properties and are utilized in products including wire enamels, coatings, film, adhesives, insulating varnishes, coated fabrics, flame-retardant fibers, oil sealants and retainers, insulation for cables and printed circuits, and laminates and composite for aerospace vehicles.
As an epoxy modifier it is classed as an epoxy reactive diluent. [8] It is one of a family of glycidyl ethers available used for viscosity reduction of epoxy resins. [9] These are then further formulated into coatings, sealants, adhesives, and elastomers. [10] [11] Resins with this diluent tend to show improved workability. [12]
2-Ethylhexyl glycidyl ether is a liquid organic molecule with formula C 11 H 22 O 2 [2] an industrial chemical used to reduce the viscosity of epoxy resins. [3] These are then used in adhesives, sealants, and paints or coatings.
The chain length helps give some degree of flexibility as an epoxy resin has rigid aromatic rings which are planar. [6] These systems may then be formulated into CASE applications: Coatings, [7] Adhesives, Sealants, Elastomers, and composite materials. The use of the diluent does effect mechanical properties and microstructure of epoxy resins ...
Liquid epoxy resins in their uncured state are mostly classed as irritant to the eyes and skin, as well as toxic to aquatic organisms. [8] Solid epoxy resins are generally safer than liquid epoxy resins, and many are classified non-hazardous materials. One particular risk associated with epoxy resins is sensitization.
The resin and hardener part together is known as the "Binder". As the name indicates, in Fusion bonded epoxy coatings the resin part is an "epoxy" type resin. “Epoxy” or “Oxirane” structure contains a three membered cyclic ring — one oxygen atom connected to two carbon atoms – in the resin molecule. This part is the most reactive ...
