absorbed through the skin or swallowed. Excessive exposures may cause central nervous system disorders
and produce anesthetic or narcotic effects. May cause blood disorders.
Hazard Rating: NFPA HMIS Hazard Rating Scale:
Health: *2 0= Minimal
Flammability: 2 1= Slight
Reactivity: 0 2= Moderate
2
PPE: H 3= Serious
4= Severe
Note: NFPA and HMIS ratings involve data and interpretations that may vary from company to company.
They are intended only for rapid, general identification of the specific hazard. To deal adequately with the
safe handling of this, or any, material, all the information in the MSDS must be considered and interpreted
by a trained professional.
Potential Health Effects:
This material has not been tested as a whole. The data contained below is based on the properties of
the individual components.
This material has been tested as a whole. The data below is based on the properties of the mixture.
Main Routes of Exposure:
Inhalation Ingestion
Skin Absorption Skin or Eye Contact
Effects of Acute (Immediate) Exposure:
Eye Contact ............................................ May cause moderate eye irritation with corneal injury.
Ingestion.................................................. Swallowing may produce gastrointestinal irritation and signs
of intoxication, characterized by drowsiness, headache, nausea
and metabolic acidosis.
Inhalation................................................ Can cause irritation to nose, throat and lungs. Inhalation of
organic solvents can cause coughing, sore throat, and runny
nose, headache, dullness and dizziness. May cause central
nervous system depression. May cause blood disorders based
on animal studies.
Skin Contact............................................ Mild skin irritant. Prolonged contact can cause de-fatting of
skin rendering it susceptible to irritation by other substances.
Harmful if absorbed. May cause blood disorders based on
animal studies.
Some trivalent chromium (Cr+3) products have demonstrated
a slight skin sensitizing potential.
Effects of Chronic(Long Term) Exposure:
Inhalation鈥︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹??.. Chronic exposure to organic solvents has been associated
with various nervous system damage including permanent
memory loss, loss of intellectual ability and loss of
coordination. May cause decreased male fertility. May cause
developmental or other harmful effects. May cause blood
disorders based on animal studies. Exposure to chromium and
certain chromium compounds may cause cumulative lung
damage.
Ingestion鈥︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹?︹??... May cause developmental or other harmful disorders.
Skin Contact............................................ Prolonged contact may cause dermatitis by de-fatting of skin
from prolonged or repeated contact. May cause blood
disorders based on animal studies.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure :
Persons with breathing and lung problems can be affected by breathing in any type of chemical vapor or
mist. Persons with asthma, allergies, or other breathing-related problems should stay away from, not
handle, and not be exposed to any product vapors or mists as a precautionary measure.
Target Organs Affected:
Blood, respiratory system, skin, eyes and central nervous system

Section 4: First Aid Measures
Eye Contact............................................. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open to rinse
completely. Get medical aid.
Ingestion.................................................. If swallowed, give 3-4 glasses of water but do not induce
vomiting. If vomiting occurs, give water again. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Potential for
aspiration if swallowed. Get medical aid immediately. Have
physician determine whether vomiting or stomach evacuation
is necessary.
Inhalation................................................ If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get
medical aid.
Skin Contact............................................ In case of contact, flush skin with plenty of soap and water.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation, redness, swelling or skin pain develops and persists.
Wash clothing before re-use.
None.

Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point Deg. C F >143 degrees
Auto 鈥? Ignition Temperature................... Not determined
Upper Flammable Limit (% Vol)............. Not determined
Lower Flammable Limit (% Vol)............. Not determined
Extinguishing Media............................... Use water fog, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or foam. Cool
containers with water until well after the fire is out.
Hazardous Combustion Products.............. Oxides of carbon, nitrogen and other toxic vapors
General Information:
Firefighters should wear full protective equipment and positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus
in pressure-demand mode. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air. 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 areas. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed container surfaces.
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Spill / Leak.............................................. Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in
Section 8. Stop flow of material. Absorb with inert material
(e.g. dry sand, earth or other suitable absorbent), then place
into a suitable container. Clean up spills immediately.
Provide ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Use a
spark-proof tool. Prevent from entering floor drains or sewers.
Do not release any chemicals, dyes, or dye solutions of any
type to sewers or any waterways without proper authorization
from government agencies. Make appropriate notifications as
required.
Section 7: Handling and Storage
Handling Procedures................................ Maintain good personal hygiene. Wash hands and face
4
thoroughly after handling, and before eating, drinking or
using tobacco products. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before re-use. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and
clothing. Keep containers tightly closed. Do not cut, weld,
braze, solder, drill, grind or expose empty containers to heat,
sparks or open flames. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Avoid breathing vapor or mist.
Observe local regulations. Store in a cool (<100oF), dry,
Storage Needs..........................................
well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Keep
containers closed when not in use. Keep away from heat,
sparks or open flames. 2-Propoxy ethanol can form unstable
peroxides upon prolonged exposure to air. Keep from
freezing. Keep from contact with oxidizing materials.
Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
When selecting personal protective equipment and clothing follow all manufacturer specifications and
recommendations that apply to your specific operations and processing conditions. Take into consideration
all working conditions and all chemicals to be handled or processed.
Eye / Type................................................ Wear splash-proof chemical safety goggles or safety glasses
with side shields. Contact lenses should not be worn when
working with chemicals.
Respiratory /Type..................................... A half-face or full-face NIOSH-approved respirator with
organic vapor cartridge is recommended where exposures
exceed TLV.
Gloves / Type........................................... Wear chemical resistant gloves such as butyl rubber or
neoprene.
Clothing / Type........................................ Wear long sleeved garment such as a lab coat to prevent skin
exposure.
Other / Type............................................ Facilities using or storing this product should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and safety shower within 100 feet
from work area.
Ventilation Requirements........................ Local exhaust ventilation is required to keep exposures below
TLV.

2-Propoxy ethanol (CAS# 2807-30-9) has a high biological
oxygen demand (BOD) and a potential to cause oxygen
depletion in aqueous systems. When diluted with a large
quantity of water, it is not expected to have a significant
impact when released in the environment
