7732-18-5 WATER 534-18-9 SODIUM TRITHIOCARBONATE ============================================================================= FOR CALIFORNIA CUSTOMERS ONLY ============================================================================= CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65: This product does contain toxic chemicals currently on the California List of known carcinogens and reproductive toxins. PRODUCT INFORMATION: Pursuant to the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) we are providing this information to you. In part, this law requires that "clear and reasonable warning" be given to any individual, knowingly or intentionally exposed to any substances identified by the state as being cancer or reproductive hazards, unless it can be shown that the exposure poses "no significant risk." It has not been feasible to carry out the detailed analysis that would be required to determine whether each of the materials on the list of chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity associated with the Act, is present in detectable amounts in our products. Based on available data, the following chemicals listed by Proposition 65 may be present in this product: CARBON DISULFIDE 75-15-0 HEADSPACE >95 PPM

Please read the entire MSDS before using a product and always use it as directed by the Material Safety Data Sheet. Of course, you may wish to conduct further evaluation based on your specific end-use. The warning above is the result of compliance with Proposition 65. There is no new scientific or technical evidence which suggests an increased risk associated with using this product. We are continuing to monitor proposition 65 activity and will keep you informed of any pertinent changes. CALIFORNIA RULE 443.1 VOC'S: Volatile Organic components (VOC'S) = Substances with vapor pressure of => 0.5 mmHg at 1040C (219.20F). This product contains <1.0 g/liter VOC'S and <1.0 g/liter VOC'S (less water and exempt compounds).
