FAIR FUTURE AT TESLA Powertrain SAFETY ALERT #1 We work with many chemical products. Do you work with either of these? Did you know that repeated exposure to these products can affect your health? In addition to the potential health risks to your eyes and skin, you should know that exposure to chemicals in these products can cause: Breathing Problems, Including Risk of Asthma: The Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics has included methyl methacrylate on its list of chemicals that can cause asthma. (5) Genetic Defects: Loctite AA H3500 Part A is listed as a Category 1B hazard for Germ Cell Mutagenicity. (6) This means that it may cause gene mutations (changes) in sperm or egg cells that could be passed on to your children. (7) Henkel Loctite AA H3500 Adhesive Loctite 383 Thermally Conductive Adhesive Health Hazard (H3500 A): Serious eye damage; skin irritation or allergic reaction; respiratory irritation; highly flammable; “may cause genetic defects.” (1) Health Hazard (H3500 B): Serious eye irritation; skin irritation or allergic reaction; respiratory irritation; highly flammable. (2) Health Hazard (383): Serious eye damage; skin irritation or allergic reaction; drowsiness or dizziness. (3) Used in: Powertrain (Battery Module) Contains: Methyl methacrylate or related compounds (4)
