According to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) of Defoamer King FAG470, the product has been strictly evaluated under the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS), and is not classified as a hazardous chemical. No hazard categories have been assigned, and no pictograms, signal words, or hazard statements are required. The product is non-flammable, non-self-igniting, free from explosion risk, and non-oxidizing, making it safe and reliable for use.
In terms of human health, Defoamer King FAG470 has no known acute toxicity, is non-corrosive and non-irritating to the skin, and causes no serious eye damage or irritation. Its non-ionic polyether-modified polysiloxane molecular structure ensures chemical stability and mildness, posing no acute health hazards to humans under normal industrial use conditions. However, this does not mean basic protective measures can be entirely disregarded. It is still recommended to wear gloves and safety goggles during operation to avoid unnecessary direct contact.
Regarding the ecological environment, the product poses no harm to the aquatic environment and is not classified as an aquatic toxic substance. Its polyether-modified silicone components do not cause significant toxicity to fish, algae, or other aquatic organisms in water bodies. Nevertheless, in the event of a spill, inert absorbent materials should be used for collection to prevent large amounts from being discharged directly into sewers or natural water bodies. This is both a regulatory requirement and a responsible industrial practice.
