===================== Hazards Identification =====================
LD50 LC50 Mixture:SEE INGREDIENTS.
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: INHALATION: INHALATION OF
VAPORS MAY BE IRRITATING TO THE NOSE AND THROAT. INHALATION OF HIGH
CONCENTRATIONS MAY RESULT IN NAUSEA, VOMITING, HEADACHE, RINGING IN
THE EARS, AND SEVERE BREATHING DIFFICULTIES WHICH MAY BE DELAYED
IN ONSET. SUBSTERNAL PAIN, COUGH, AND HOARSENESS ARE ALSO REPORTED.
HIGH VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS ARE ANESTHETIC AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
DEPRESSANTS. INGESTION: CAUSES BURNING SENSATION IN MOUTH AND
STOMACH, NAUSEA, VOMITING AND SALIVATION. MINUTE AMOUNTS ASPIRATED
INTO THE LUNGS CAN PRODUCE A SEVERE HEMORRHAGIC PNEUMONITIS WITH
SEVERE PULMONARY INJURY OR DEATH. SK IN: CONTACT RESULTS (EFTS OF
OVEREXP)
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: IN LOSS OF NATURAL OILS AND OFTEN
RESULTS IN A CHARACTERISTIC DERMATITIS. MAY BE ABSORBED THROUGH THE
SKIN. EYE: VAPORS CAUSE EYE IRRITATION. SPLASHES CAUSES SEVERE
IRRITATION, POSSIBLE CORN EAL BURNS OR EYE DAMAGE. CHRONIC: CHRONIC
INHALATION CAN CAUSE HEADACHE, LOSS OF APPETITE, NERVOUSNESS AND
PALE SKIN. REPEATED OR PROLONGED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE A SKIN
RASH. REPEATED EXPOSURE OF THE EYES TO HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF
VAPOR MAY CAUSE REVERSIBLE EYE DAMAGE. REPEATED EXPOSURE CAN DAMAGE
BONE MARROW, CAUSING LOW BLOOD CELL COUNT. MAY DAMAGE THE LIVER AND
KIDNEYS.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH PRE-EXISTING SKIN
DISORDERS OR EYE PROBLEMS, OR IMPAIRED LIVER, KIDNEY, BLOOD, OR
RESPIRATORY FUNCTION MAY BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THE
SUBSTANCE.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHAL: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BRTHG, GIVE ARTF RESP. IF
BRTHG IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. CALL MD IMMED. INGEST: ASPIRATION
HAZ. IF SWALLOWED, VOMIT MAY OCCUR SPONTANEOUSLY, BUT DO NOT INUCE.
IF V OMIT OCCURS, KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS TO PREVENT ASPIR INTO LUNGS.
NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO UNCON PERSON. CALL MD IMMED. SKIN:
IMMED FLUSH W/PLENTY OF SOAP & WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN WHILE
REMOVIN G CONTAMD CLTHG & SHOES. GET MED ATTN. WASH CLTHG BEFORE
REUSE. THOROUGHLY CLEAN SHOES BEFORE REUSE. EYE: IMMED FLUSH
W/PLENTY OF H*2O FOR AT LEAST 15 MIN, LIFTING LOWER & UPPER EYELIDS
OCCAS. GET MED ATTN IMMED.
