2. Composition / information on ingredients
Decals contain inorganic ceramic colour within a thin organic film printed
on to paper.
Some decals may contain elements such as lead, cadmium etc.
The thin organic film contains dried organic, resinous ink vehicles and
lacquers.
3. Hazards identification
The ceramic colours used in decals may contain ingredients hazardous to
health. During the normal process of applying decals these hazards can
not be exhibited.
The water – soluble coating on the paper (used for decals) maybe
an irritant. The soaking water should be changed at regular intervals.
When firing the ware to which the decals have been applied, or during
accidental fire, harmful, toxic fumes may be emitted.
4. First aid measures
Skin irritation – wash the affected area with clean water.
5. Fire fighting measures
Decals will support combustion. Use whatever existing media are required
for surrounding fire conditions. Harmful and toxic fumes may be emitted,
so self contained breathing apparatus should be used.
6. Accidental release measures
No special precautions.
7. Handling and storage
Store upright where possible. Store in a cool, dry area.
8. Exposure controls / personal protection
Inhalation exposure only arises during the firing process. Adequate ventilation
should be provided so that Occupational exposure limits are not exceeded.
Local exhaust ventilation is recommended.
9. Physical description
Decals are sheets of paper with a decorative pattern printed on them.
10. Stability and reactivity
Decals are stable and unreactive. During the firing process or during
accidental fire, harmful and toxic fumes may be emitted.
11. Toxicological information
Decals contain organic and inorganic compounds (see 2. Composition), which
may be harmful if ingested. Do not eat or drink when using.
12. Ecological information
On contact with water the paper will curl and then flatten. If left too
long in the water the decal will separate from the paper. The decal is
relatively light and flimsy, it may float and it may stick to things.
The paper is quite strong and will break up very slowly in water.

Dispose in accordance with local and national regulations.
