NOTES
Values marked LEL indicate that the IDLH was based on 10% of the lower explosive limit
for safety considerations even though the relevant toxicological data indicated that
irreversible health effects or impairment of escape existed only at higher
concentrations.


MATERIAL DATA
Not available. Refer to individual constituents.

INGREDIENT DATA
CRISTOBALITE:
The concentration of respirable dust for application of this limit is to be determined
from the fraction that penetrates a separator whose size collection efficiency is
described by a cumulative lognormal function with a median aerodynamic diameter of 4.0 碌m
(+-) 0.3 碌m and with a geometric standard deviation of 1.5 碌m (+-) 0.1 碌m, i.e..generally
less than 5 碌m.
Cristobalite produces a more severe response, than does quartz, on lung
function and disease. The fibrosis produced by cristobalite is diffuse
rather than nodular. The TLV-TWA is thought to be protective against
pulmonary fibrosis associated with exposure at higher levels. NIOSH has
designated cristobalite as a potential occupational carcinogen.

ISOPROPANOL:
Odour Threshold Value: 3.3 ppm (detection), 7.6 ppm (recognition)
Exposure at or below the recommended TLV-TWA and STEL is thought to
minimise the potential for inducing narcotic effects or significant
irritation of the eyes or upper respiratory tract. It is believed, in the
absence of hard evidence, that this limit also provides protection against
the development of chronic health effects. The limit is intermediate to
that set for ethanol, which is less toxic, and n-propyl alcohol, which is
more toxic, than isopropanol.

ETHYLENE GLYCOL:
Odour Threshold: 25 ppm
NOTE: Detector tubes for ethylene glycol, measuring in excess of 10 mg/m3,
are commercially available.
It appears impractical to establish separate TLVs for ethylene glycol
vapour and mists. Atmospheric concentration that do not cause discomfort
are unlikely to cause adverse effects. The TLV-C is thought to be
protective against throat and respiratory irritation and headache reported
in exposed humans. NIOSH has not established a limit for this substance
due to the potential teratogenicity associated with exposure and because

respiratory irritation reported at the TLV justified a lower value.

DIURON:
Exposures at or below the recommended TLV-TWA is thought to ptotect the
worker from the significant risk of anaemia and methaemoglobinaemia
associated with use of the product.

PERSONAL PROTECTION

EYE
路 Safety glasses with side shields; or as required,
路 Chemical goggles.
路 Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and
concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or
restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a
review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account
of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal
and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure,
begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens
should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be
removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC
NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].

HANDS/FEET
Wear protective gloves, eg. PVC.

OTHER
路 Overalls.
路 Eyewash unit.

RESPIRATOR
Selection of the Class and Type of respirator will depend upon the level of breathing
zone contaminant and the chemical nature of the contaminant. Protection Factors (defined
as the ratio of contaminant outside and inside the mask) may also be important.

The local concentration of material, quantity and conditions of use determine the type of
personal protective equipment required.
For further information consult site specific
CHEMWATCH data (if available), or your
Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS
General exhaust is adequate under normal operating conditions. If risk of overexposure
exists, wear SAA approved respirator. Correct fit is essential to obtain adequate
protection. Provide adequate ventilation in warehouse or closed storage areas.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION


POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS

ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS

SWALLOWED
The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as
"harmful by ingestion". This is because of the lack of corroborating animal or human
evidence. The material may still be damaging to the health of the individual, following
ingestion, especially where pre-existing organ (e.g liver, kidney) damage is evident.
Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally based on doses producing
mortality rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-health). Gastrointestinal
tract discomfort may produce nausea and vomiting. In an occupational setting however,
ingestion of insignificant quantities is not thought to be cause for concern.

EYE
Although the liquid is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives),
direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterised by tearing or
conjunctival redness (as with windburn).

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

SKIN
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation
following contact (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless,
good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable
gloves be used in an occupational setting.
Entry into the blood-stream, through, for example, cuts, abrasions or lesions, may
produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use of the
material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.

INHALED
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the
respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless,
good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable
control measures be used in an occupational setting.

CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Principal routes of exposure are by accidental skin and eye contact and by inhalation of
vapours especially at higher temperatures.
As with any chemical product, contact with unprotected bare skin; inhalation of vapour,
mist or dust in work place atmosphere; or ingestion in any form, should be avoided by
observing good occupational work practice.

Appendix 8,Table 1
Compiler's Guide for the Preparation of International Chemical Safety Cards: 1993
Commission of the European Communities.
The phenylurea herbicides may be divided into three categories based on water solubility.
The most soluble, fenuron (water solubility 2900 to 3850 ppm) moves substantially in a
lateral direction over the soil surface and in a vertical direction in the subsoil. Its
movement is also related to soil texture and organic matter content. Movement is greater
in coarse-textured soils and decreases at higher organic contents. The middle group
(water-solubilities 18 to 580 ppm) are moderately mobile in soil; their relative movement
decreases as water solubility decreases. Movement of members of this group also decreases
as the organic content matter of the soil increases. The least soluble group (water
solubility 2 to 4.8 ppm) are immobile in the soil. Most phenylurea compounds have low
vapour pressure and are not volatile from soil. Soil pH does not significantly affect
adsorption, mobility or herbicidal activity. The field persistence of these compounds is
moderate with residues remaining for several months following application, at most. These
herbicides are readily metabolised by most biological systems. A combination of their low
mammalian toxicity and biodegradability indicate that they are not significant factors in
the contamination of soil and water systems: their significance as environmental
pollutants is minimal.
