3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Toxicity: Skin and eye irritant. May irritate respiratory
tract. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. May cause
dizziness or narcosis in high vapor concentrations
Will cause defatting of skin.
Long term exposure to high concentrations of vapor
may cause lung, liver, or kidney damage. The
solvents listed have been reported to affect the
central nervous system.
Note: Eye irritation may be severe.
Deliberately concentrating and inhaling the vapors
of the contents may be harmful or fatal.
Sodium bicarbonate has been shown to cause
developmental abnormalities in experimental
animals when introduced into the peritoneum and
changes in lungs/thorax/respiration, increased
urine volume, andchanges in nutrition and gross
metabolism in experimental animals upon ingestion.
It is our best technical judgement that with
proper protection normal use of this product poses
