The components of Vertrel™ MCA Plus are listed in the TSCA inventory. One component, HFC-43-10mee, is subject to the Significant New Use Rule (SNUR) and should be used only in the applications indicated in the Vertrel™ MCA Plus Safety Data Sheet regulatory section.
Flammability and Toxicity
Vertrel™ MCA Plus specialty fluid exhibits no closed-cup flash point per the Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Tester (ASTM D93) and is not classified as a flammable liquid by NFPA or DOT. However the product does exhibit vapor flammability limits in air. Users should clear equipment of all vapors and liquids before performing any maintenance operations that may result in an ignition source.
Flash point data and limits of flammability in air provide the user with additional information that should be used as elements of a fire risk assessment and to determine guidelines for safe handling of volatile chemicals. Users should ensure compliance with NFPA standards and local fire codes.
Acute toxicity studies show that Vertrel™ MCA Plus has low toxicity. It could pose a slight skin and eye irritation and has low inhalation toxicity. For exposure limits please refer to the Vertrel™ MCA Plus brochure.
