**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed.
Irritating to eyes and skin.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. May cause transient corneal injury.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Substance is rapidly absorbed through the
skin. Not expected to cause an allergic skin reaction. A single
prolonged skin exposure is not likely to result in the material
being absorbed in harmful amounts.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation:
May cause respiratory tract irritation. May be harmful if inhaled.
May cause central nervous system effects such as nausea and headache.
Chronic:
Chronic exposure may cause blood effects. Chronic exposure may cause
effects similar to those of acute exposure.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, flush skin with plenty of water. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation
develops and persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician:
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Combustible liquid and
vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a source of
ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread along the ground and
collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
Water may be ineffective. Do NOT use straight streams of water. For
small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray. For
large fires, use water spray, fog or regular foam.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all
sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Ground and bond
containers when transferring material. Avoid contact with eyes, skin,
and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or
vapor), and can be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze,
solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or
open flames. Keep away from heat and flame. Avoid breathing vapor or
mist.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Containers should be dated when opened and
tested periodically for the presence of peroxides. Should crystals
form in a peroxidizable liquid, peroxidation may have occurred and
the product should be considered extremely dangerous. In this
instance, the container should only be opened remotely by
professionals. All peroxidizable substances should be stored away
from heat and light and be protected from ignition sources.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate general or
local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the
permissible exposure limits.

irritation or other symptoms are experienced.

Humans are less susceptible than rodents to 2-butoxyethanol exposure.
2-Butoxyethanol gives toxic results when tested on rabbits and rats.
It does not behave the same when humans are exposed to it. This is
explained by the different makeup of the red blood cells of test
animals vs. humans. Test animal red blood cells are hypersensitive
to 2-butoxyethanol when compared to humans.
Carcinogenicity:
2-Butoxyethanol -
