However, ingestion of product may produce gastrointestinal irritation and disturbances. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Chronic respiratory or skin conditions may temporarily worsen from exposure to this product. Chronic Conditions: See Section 11 for additional information. Inhalation: If inhaled, remove the affected pemon to fresh air. If irritation persists get medical attention. Skin Contact: For skin contact, wash with mild soap and running water. Use a washcloth to help remove fibers. To avoid further irritation, do not rub or scratch affected areas. Rubbing or scratching may force fibem into the skin. if irritation persists get medical attention Never use compressed air to remove fibers from the skin. If fibers are seen penetrating from the skin, the fibers can be removed by applying and removing adhesive tape so that the fibers adhere to the tape and are pulled out of the skin Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists get medical attention. Ingestion: Ingestion of this material is unlikely.

PERSONAL PROTE -_'NT Use a properly fitted NIOSH or MSHA approved disposable dust respirator such as the 3M Model 8210 (3M Model 8271 in high humidity environments) or equivalent when you: 1) install or remove loose fill, 2) install or remove any of these products in poorly ventilated spaces such as attics or crawlspaces. As an extra precaution you may choose, but are not required, to wear a disposable dust respirator at all times. if temperature of the surface being covered exceeds 250°F (121 °C), the binder in these products may undergo various degrees of decomposition depending on the temperature of the application. The need for respiratory protection will vary according to the airborne concentration of the decomposition products released and accumulated in the area. If the insulation must be installed on hot surfaces above 250°F I121 °C), a full face respirator approved for protection against formaldehyde and organic vapors should be used. In areas with good general and/or local exhaust ventilation where exposures are controlled below the formaldehyde occupational exposure limits, respiratory protection is normally not needed. Skin Protection: Normal work clothing (long sleeved shirt, long pants, and gloves) is recommended. Skin irritation is known to occur chiefly at the pressure points such as around the neck, wrists, waist aha between the fingers. Eyes/Face Protective Equipment: Wear safety glasses or goggles. * * * Section 9 - Ph & (: Appearance: Fabdc Covered.

The 2001 decision was base(~ on human studies and animal research that have not shown an association between inhalation exposure to dust from fiber glass wool and the development of respiratory disease. This classification replaces the IARC finding in 1987 of a Group B designation "possibly carcinogenic to humans." In May 1997, the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) adopted an A3 carcinogen classification for glass wool fibem. The ACGIH A3 classification considers glass wool to be carcinogenic in experimental animals at relatively high doses, by routes of administration, at sites, or by mechanisms that it does not consider relevant to worker exposure. It also reviewed the available epidemiological studies and concluded that they do not confirm an increased risk of cancer in exposed humans. Overall, the ACGIH [ound that the available medical/scientific evidence suggests that glass wool is not likely to cause cancer in humans except under uncommon or unlikely routes or levels of exposure. In t994, the National Toxicology Program (NTP) classified glass wool trespirable size] as "reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen." This classification was primarily based upon the 1987 IARC classificatio~ NTP is currently considering reclassifying this material Component Analysis Fiber Glass Wool (Fibrous Glass) (65997-17-3) IARC: Group 3 "not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans" i related to Glasswool) October 2001 Meeting ACGIH: A3 - animal carcinogen (related to Glass wool fibers) NTP: Reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen (related to glasswool) (possible select carcinogen) 12 This material is not toxic to animals, plants, or fish.

I TECHNICAL BULLETIN # 2 Study Objective To validate the theory that no vapor retarder should be used with the Basement Finishing System. This would be accomplished by obtaining point moisture condition ana combined system moisture transport data for various vapor retarder configurations with the system, Of key interest is the Ic~cations in the basement system where moisture levels are high; the inierior humidity and temperature conditions under which such high levels are achieved; as well as the interior temperature and humidity conditions required for complete moisture removal {wetting/drying curves), The study was conducted at the University of Minnesota Foundation Test Facility and began In November of 1998. The Owens Corning Basemenl Finishing System ( R111 was installed with three vapor retarder configurations: A polyethylene vapor retarder placed between the insulation and the foundation wall "Exterior Side Vapor Retarder" > A polyethylene vapor retarder placed on the interior surface (between the insulation and interior air.) "interior Side Vapor Retarder" > "No Vapor Retarder" on 2 of the module quadrants (opposing comers) From 12/98 through 2/00, measurements were taken of: interior air temperature, humidity ratio. and barometric pressure, ambiem exterior temperature and humidity ratio, and humidity ratio measurements at 40 locations within the insulation (10 per quadrant). Additional data was collected for: amount of dehumidifier condensate (water) removed, mass of 8 removable sq. ft. sections. electrical energ~ consumption Discussion The environmental conditions were established to be representative of "typical" MN basemem conditions, Testing began with the basement module under ideal indoor conditions - 65°F and Iow relative humidity (40% RH). Conditions were later modified to represent a "worst case scenario"- an unconditioned basement at 56F and 70% RH. Following is a brief discussion of each quadrant performance University of Minnesota Foundation Test Facility: Evaluation of the Rll Basement Finishing System Exterior Side Vapor Retarder: During the winter months, condensation formed on the insulation side of the vapor retarder, The amount of condensate was enough run down the vapor retarder onto the floor. As the climate transitioned into spring and summer, water droplets accumulated on the exterior wall side of the vapor retarder. In both the heating and cooling seasons, this vapor retarder configuration was clearly unacceptable. Interior Side Vapor Retarder: When the vapor retarder was placed on the interior surface, condensation also accumulated on the insulation side of the vapor retarder. Additionally. the insulation panels showed moisture gain during the spring/summer at levels that exceeded the drying potential during the heating season. This cycle would result in the insulation becoming progressively "wetter" over time, Thus. the interior vapor retarder configuration was unacceptable. No vapor retarder: The two quadrants with no vapor retarder clearly showed a "stable wetting/drying annual cycle in a heated basement." As expected, a more significant moisture gain was observed m the panels during the "unconditioned" 9hase of the study with no dehumidification. However, the data also showed the ability of the system to effectively "dry out" once conditions changed. This can be extrapolated to conclude "the zero vapor retarder configuration has a stable wetting/drying annual cycle in an approximately unheated basement as well." Conclusion When installing the Owens Corning R 11 Basement Finishing System, a vapor retarder should NOT be used. The use of a single vapor retarder, regardless of the location. provided a condensation Diane where liquid water formed and remained trapped m the system.
