What to Do if Contact with Hot Adhesive Occurs
WARNING! The heat that is contained in the hot-melt material will continue to
penetrate and deeply burn the skin unless rapidly cooled by external means
such as water. Do not attempt to remove the set hot-melt adhesive from the
skin.
If hot adhesive comes in contact with the skin , do the following:
1. Immediately immerse the contacted area in clean, cold water.
Note! It is recommended that a source of clean, cold water be provided near the hot-melt
work area.
2. Cover the affected area with a clean, wet compress and see a physician immediately.
What to Do if Adhesive-Related Fire or Explosion Occurs
During the heating and melting process, the surface of the adhesive will be exposed to air. The mixture of polymer
fumes and air can catch fire if the hot-melt is overheated.
WARNING! Poor ventilation, smoking, and open flames can cause overheated
hot-melt to ignite. Adequate ventilation must be provided. Smoking should
be prohibited in the immediate vicinity of the molten adhesive. Open flames
must be kept away from the area around the molten adhesive. OTHERWISE,
DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT COULD OCCUR.
WARNING! Exposed arcing may ignite the fume/air mixture. Shield all electri-
cal equipment from the melt fumes to avoid exposed arcing. OTHERWISE,
PERSONAL INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE COULD OCCUR.
WARNING! Do not use a water extinguisher to extinguish the fire! OTHER-
WISE, PERSONAL INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE COULD OCCUR.
If the hot-melt adhesive ignites, promptly perform the following steps:
1. Sound a fire alarm.
2. Evacuate the immediate area.
3. Turn off all local electrical equipment at the source.
4. Fight the fire in one of the following ways:
• Smother the fire with a fire blanket.
• Aim a CO

fire extinguisher at the base of the flames.
• Aim a dry-powder fire extinguisher at the base of the flames.
