2. Hazards Identification
CAUTION
FLAMMABLE LIQUID, Flash Point 10F
Causes eye, skin and lung irritation.
Harmful if inhaled.
Harmful if swallowed.
WHMIS Classification: Class D2B & B3 (Toxic & Flammable)
Symbol: Stylized T & Flammable
Potential Health Hazards - Acute
Eye: May cause eye irritation. Direct contact with the liquid or exposure to its vapors may cause burning, tearing and
redness.
Skin: May cause irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause redness and burning, drying and cracking of
the skin and dermatitis. Persons with preexisting skin disorders may be more susceptible to the effects of this
material.
Inhalation: Excessive concentrations of vapors or mists may cause irritation of the nose and throat and signs of nervous
system depression. Persons with impaired lung function or asthma like conditions may experience additional
breathing difficulties due to the irritating properties of this material.
Ingestion: Liquid is moderately toxic and may be harmful if swallowed; may produce CNS depression. May result
in vomiting. Aspiration of vomitus into the lungs must be avoided as even small quantities may result in aspiration
pneumonitis.
Potential Health Effects - Chronic
Kidney, lung and liver are probable target organs. See Section 11 for further information.
Carcinogenicity: NTP IARC Monographs OSHA Regulated
NO NO NO

4. First Aid Measures
Eye: Immediately flush with plenty of clean water.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Clean affected area(s) thoroughly with soap and water.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Seek medical attention! Do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head
below hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs.
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST

11. Toxicological Information
Rats exposed for 4 months to 1700 ppm of a similar solvent showed evidence of mild damage to the liver, lungs and
kidneys. These effects were not seen in rats exposed for 1 year at 350 ppm. Rats exposed during pregnancy showed
embryo/fetotoxic toxicity. Petroleum Naphtha may contain small percentages of Xylene. Xylene in high concentrations
has resulted in hearing loss in laboratory rats.
