burns. May cause sensitization by skin contact. May cause
cancer.Light sensitive.Moisture sensitive.The toxicological
properties of this material have not been fully investigated.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause
conjunctivitis.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation. Prolonged and/or repeated contact may
cause irritation and/or dermatitis. Prolonged absorption may produce
