Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
路 Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness;
i.e. becoming unconscious.
路 Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can
comfortably drink.
路 Seek medical advice.
Avoid giving milk or oils.
Avoid giving alcohol.
EYE
If aerosols come in contact with the eyes:
路 Immediately hold the eyelids apart and flush the eye continuously for at least 15
minutes with fresh running water.
路 Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and
moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
路 Transport to hospital or doctor without delay.
路 Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled
personnel.
SKIN
If solids or aerosol mists are deposited upon the skin:
路 Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
路 Remove any adhering solids with industrial skin cleansing cream.
路 DO NOT use solvents.
路 Seek medical attention in the event of irritation.
INHALED
If aerosols, fumes or combustion products are inhaled:
路 Remove to fresh air.
路 Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
路 Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where
possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
路 If breathing is shallow or has stopped, ensure clear airway and apply resuscitation,
preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as
trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
路 Transport to hospital, or doctor.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
Treat symptomatically.
For acute or short term repeated exposures to acetone:
路 Symptoms of acetone exposure approximate ethanol intoxication.
路 About 20% is expired by the lungs and the rest is metabolised. Alveolar air half-life
is about 4 hours following two hour inhalation at levels near the Exposure Standard; in
overdose, saturable metabolism and limited clearance, prolong the elimination half-life
to 25-30 hours.
路 There are no known antidotes and treatment should involve the usual methods of
decontamination followed by supportive care.
[Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology]
Management:
Measurement of serum and urine acetone concentrations may be useful to monitor the
severity of ingestion or inhalation.
Inhalation Management:
路 Maintain a clear airway, give humidified oxygen and ventilate if necessary.
路 If respiratory irritation occurs, assess respiratory function and, if necessary,
perform chest X-rays to check for chemical pneumonitis.
路 Consider the use of steroids to reduce the inflammatory response.
路 Treat pulmonary oedema with PEEP or CPAP ventilation.
Dermal Management:
路 Remove any remaining contaminated clothing, place in double sealed, clear bags, label
and store in secure area away from patients and staff.

FOOTNOTES
1 PROTECTIVE ACTION ZONE is defined as the area in which people are at risk of harmful exposure. This zone
assumes that random changes in wind direction confines the vapour plume to an area within 30 degrees on
either side of the predominant wind direction, resulting in a crosswind protective action distance equal
to the downwind protective action distance.
2 PROTECTIVE ACTIONS should be initiated to the extent possible, beginning with those closest to the spill
and working away from the site in the downwind direction. Within the protective action zone a level of
vapour concentration may exist resulting in nearly all unprotected persons becoming incapacitated and
unable to take protective action and/or incurring serious or irreversible health effects.
3 INITIAL ISOLATION ZONE is determined as an area, including upwind of the incident, within which a high
probability of localised wind reversal may expose nearly all persons without appropriate protection to
life-threatening concentrations of the material.
4 SMALL SPILLS involve a leaking package of 200 litres (55 US gallons) or less, such as a drum (jerrican or
box with inner containers). Larger packages leaking less than 200 litres and compressed gas leaking from
a small cylinder are also considered "small spills".
LARGE SPILLS involve many small leaking packages or a leaking package of greater than 200 litres, such as
a cargo tank, portable tank or a "one-tonne" compressed gas cylinder.
5 Guide 126 is taken from the US DOT emergency response guide book.
6 IERG information is derived from CANUTEC - Transport Canada.

INGREDIENT DATA
PROPYLENE GLYCOL MONOMETHYL ETHER ACETATE, ALPHA-ISOMER:
XYLENE:
Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on
the eyes, nose or throat. Historically occupational exposure standards for these
irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to various airborne
concentrations. Present day expectations require that nearly every individual should be
protected against even minor sensory irritation and exposure standards are established
using uncertainty factors or safety factors of 5 to 10 or more. On occasion animal no
-observable-effect-levels (NOEL) are used to determine these limits where human results
are unavailable. An additional approach, typically used by the TLV committee (USA) in
determining respiratory standards for this group of chemicals, has been to assign ceiling
values (TLV C) to rapidly acting irritants and to assign short-term exposure limits (TLV
STELs) when the weight of evidence from irritation, bioaccumulation and other endpoints
combine to warrant such a limit. In contrast the MAK Commission (Germany) uses a five
-category system based on intensive odour, local irritation, and elimination half-life.
However this system is being replaced to be consistent with the European Union (EU)
Scientific Committee for Occupational Exposure Limits (SCOEL); this is more closely
allied to that of the USA.
OSHA (USA) concluded that exposure to sensory irritants can:
路 cause inflammation
路 cause increased susceptibility to other irritants and infectious agents
路 lead to permanent injury or dysfunction
路 permit greater absorption of hazardous substances and
路 acclimate the worker to the irritant warning properties of these substances thus
increasing the risk of overexposure.

ACETONE:
Odour Threshold Value: 3.6 ppm (detection), 699 ppm (recognition)
Saturation vapour concentration: 237000 ppm @ 20 C
NOTE: Detector tubes measuring in excess of 40 ppm, are available.
Exposure at or below the recommended TLV-TWA is thought to protect the
worker against mild irritation associated with brief exposures and the
bioaccumulation, chronic irritation of the respiratory tract and headaches
associated with long-term acetone exposures. The NIOSH REL-TWA is
substantially lower and has taken into account slight irritation
experienced by volunteer subjects at 300 ppm. Mild irritation to
acclimatised workers begins at about 750 ppm - unacclimatised subjects
will experience irritation at about 350-500 ppm but acclimatisation can
occur rapidly. Disagreement between the peak bodies is based largely on
the view by ACGIH that widespread use of acetone, without evidence of
significant adverse health effects at higher concentrations, allows
acceptance of a higher limit.
Half-life of acetone in blood is 3 hours which means that no adjustment
for shift-length has to be made with reference to the standard 8 hour/day,
40 hours per week because body clearance occurs within any shift with low
potential for accumulation.
A STEL has been established to prevent excursions of acetone vapours that
could cause depression of the central nervous system.
N-BUTYL ACETATE:
Odour Threshold Value: 0.0063 ppm (detection), 0.038-12 ppm (recognition)
Exposure at or below the recommended TLV-TWA is thought to prevent
significant irritation of the eyes and respiratory passages as well as
narcotic effects. In light of the lack of substantive evidence regarding
teratogenicity and a review of acute oral data a STEL is considered
inappropriate.

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
PROPYLENE GLYCOL MONOMETHYL ETHER ACETATE, ALPHA-ISOMER:
Saturated vapour concentration: 4868 ppm at 20 C.
A two-week inhalation study found nasal effects to the nasal mucosa in
animals at concentrations up to 3000 ppm. Differences in the teratogenic
potential of the alpha (commercial grade) and beta isomers of PGMEA may
be explained by the formation of different metabolites. The beta-isomer is
thought to be oxidised to methoxypropionic acid, a homologue to
methoxyacetic acid which is a known teratogen. The alpha- form is
conjugated and excreted.
PGMEA mixture (containing 2% to 5% beta isomer) is a mild skin and eye
irritant, produces mild central nervous system effects in animals at
3000 ppm and produces mild CNS impairment and upper respiratory tract
and eye irritation in humans at 1000 ppm. In rats exposed to 3000 ppm
PGMEA produced slight foetotoxic effects (delayed sternabral ossification)
- no effects on foetal development were seen in rabbits exposed at 3000 ppm.
XYLENE:
IDLH Level: 900 ppm
Odour Threshold Value: 20 ppm (detection), 40 ppm (recognition)
NOTE: Detector tubes for o-xylene, measuring in excess of 10 ppm, are
available commercially. (m-xylene and p-xylene give almost the same
response)
Xylene vapour is an irritant to the eyes, mucous membranes and skin and
causes narcosis at high concentrations. Exposure to doses sufficiently high
to produce intoxication and unconsciousness also produces transient liver
and kidney toxicity. Neurologic impairment is NOT evident amongst
volunteers inhaling up to 400 ppm though complaints of ocular and upper
respiratory tract irritation occur at 200 ppm for 3 to 5 minutes.
Exposure to xylene at or below the recommended TLV-TWA and STEL is thought
to minimise the risk of irritant effects and to produce neither significant
narcosis or chronic injury. An earlier skin notation was deleted because
percutaneous absorption is gradual and protracted and does not
substantially contribute to the dose received by inhalation.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE
路 Safety glasses with side shields.
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
No special equipment needed when handling small quantities.
OTHERWISE:
For potentially moderate exposures:

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS
SWALLOWED
Although ingestion is not thought to produce harmful effects (as classified under EC
Directives), 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.
Not normally a hazard due to physical form of product.
Considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments.
Ingestion may result in nausea, abdominal irritation, pain and vomiting.
EYE
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material may cause eye
irritation in a substantial number of individuals and/or may produce significant ocular
lesions which are present twenty-four hours or more after instillation into the eye(s) of
experimental animals.
Repeated or prolonged eye contact may cause inflammation characterised by temporary
redness (similar to windburn) of the conjunctiva (conjunctivitis); temporary impairment
of vision and/or other transient eye damage/ulceration may occur.
The material may produce severe irritation to the eye causing pronounced inflammation.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce conjunctivitis.
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.
Spray mist may produce discomfort.
Toxic effects may result from skin absorption.
The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may
produce a contact dermatitis (nonallergic). This form of dermatitis is often

characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling the epidermis. Histologically there
may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of
the epidermis.
INHALED
The material is not thought to produce respiratory irritation (as classified by EC
Directives using animal models). Nevertheless inhalation, of the material, especially for
prolonged periods, may produce respiratory discomfort and occasionally, distress.
Inhalation of vapours or aerosols (mists, fumes), generated by the material during the
course of normal handling, may be harmful.
Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be accompanied by
narcosis, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack of coordination and vertigo.
Acute effects from inhalation of high concentrations of vapour are pulmonary irritation,
including coughing, with nausea; central nervous system depression - characterised by
headache and dizziness, increased reaction time, fatigue and loss of co-ordination.
WARNING:Intentional misuse by concentrating/inhaling contents may be lethal.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
On the basis, primarily, of animal experiments, concern has been expressed that the
material may produce carcinogenic or mutagenic effects; in respect of the available
information, however, there presently exists inadequate data for making a satisfactory
assessment.
Workers exposed to 700 ppm acetone for 3 hours/day for 7-15 years showed inflammation of
the respiratory tract, stomach and duodenum, attacks of giddiness and loss of strength.
Exposure to acetone may enhance liver toxicity of chlorinated solvents.
Chronic solvent inhalation exposures may result in nervous system impairment
and liver and blood changes. [PATTYS].
WARNING: Aerosol containers may present pressure related hazards.

In air, acetone is lost by photolysis and reaction with photochemically
produced hydroxyl radicals; the estimated half-life of these combined
processes is about 22 days. The relatively long half-life allows acetone
to be transported long distances from its emission source.
Acetone is highly soluble and slightly persistent in water, with a
half-life of about 20 hours; it is minimally toxic to aquatic life.
Acetone released to soil volatilises although some may leach into the
ground where it rapidly biodegrades.
Acetone does not concentrate in the food chain.

The lower molecular weight hydrocarbons are expected to form a "slick" on the surface of
waters after release in calm sea conditions. This is expected to evaporate and enter the
atmosphere where it will be degraded through reaction with hydroxy radicals.
Some of the material will become associated with benthic sediments, and it is likely to
be spread over a fairly wide area of sea floor. Marine sediments may be either aerobic or
anaerobic. The material, in probability, is biodegradable, under aerobic conditions
(isomerised olefins and alkenes show variable results). Evidence also suggests that the
hydrocarbons may be degradable under anaerobic conditions although such degradation in
benthic sediments may be a relatively slow process.
