Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
SWALLOWED
Avoid giving milk or oils.
Avoid giving alcohol.
Not considered a normal route of entry.
If spontaneous vomiting appears imminent or occurs, hold patient's head down, lower than
their hips to help avoid possible aspiration of vomitus.
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
For acute or short term repeated exposures to petroleum distillates or related
hydrocarbons:
路 Primary threat to life, from pure petroleum distillate ingestion and/or inhalation, is
respiratory failure.
路 Patients should be quickly evaluated for signs of respiratory distress (e.g. cyanosis,
tachypnoea, intercostal retraction, obtundation) and given oxygen. Patients with

Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
inadequate tidal volumes or poor arterial blood gases (pO2 50 mm Hg) should be intubated.
路 Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and
electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported; intravenous lines
and cardiac monitors should be established in obviously symptomatic patients. The lungs
excrete inhaled solvents, so that hyperventilation improves clearance.
路 A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and
circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax.
路 Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm because of
potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled cardioselective
bronchodilators (e.g. Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred agents, with aminophylline a
second choice.
路 Lavage is indicated in patients who require decontamination; ensure use of cuffed
endotracheal tube in adult patients. [Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].
Treat symptomatically.
For acute or short term repeated exposures to ethylene glycol:
路 Early treatment of ingestion is important. Ensure emesis is satisfactory.
路 Test and correct for metabolic acidosis and hypocalcaemia.
路 Apply sustained diuresis when possible with hypertonic mannitol.
路 Evaluate renal status and begin haemodialysis if indicated. [I.L.O]
路 Rapid absorption is an indication that emesis or lavage is effective only in the first
few hours. Cathartics and charcoal are generally not effective.
路 Correct acidosis, fluid/electrolyte balance and respiratory depression in the usual
manner. Systemic acidosis (below 7.2) can be treated with intravenous sodium bicarbonate
solution.
路 Ethanol therapy prolongs the half-life of ethylene glycol and reduces the formation of
toxic metabolites.
路 Pyridoxine and thiamine are cofactors for ethylene glycol metabolism and should be
given (50 to 100 mg respectively) intramuscularly, four times per day for 2 days.
路 Magnesium is also a cofactor and should be replenished. The status of 4-methylpyrazole,
in the treatment regime, is still uncertain. For clearance of the material and its
metabolites, haemodialysis is much superior to peritoneal dialysis.
[Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology]
It has been suggested that there is a need for establishing a new biological exposure
limit before a workshift that is clearly below 100 mmol ethoxy-acetic acids per mole
creatinine in morning urine of people occupationally exposed to ethylene glycol ethers.
This arises from the finding that an increase in urinary stones may be associated with
such exposures.

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.

Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING
路 Containers, even those that have been emptied, may contain explosive vapours.
路 Do NOT cut, drill, grind, weld or perform similar operations on or near containers.
路 Electrostatic discharge may be generated during pumping - this may result in fire.
路 Ensure electrical continuity by bonding and grounding (earthing) all equipment.
路 Restrict line velocity during pumping in order to avoid generation of electrostatic
discharge (<=1 m/sec until fill pipe submerged to twice its diameter, then <= 7 m/sec).

MATERIAL DATA
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.
INGREDIENT DATA
SODIUM GLUCONATE:
These "dusts" have little adverse effect on the lungs and do not produce toxic effects
or organic disease. Although there is no dust which does not evoke some cellular response
at sufficiently high concentrations, the cellular response caused by P.N.O.C.s has the
following characteristics:
路 the architecture of the air spaces remain intact,
路 scar tissue (collagen) is not synthesised to any degree,
路 tissue reaction is potentially reversible.
Extensive concentrations of P.N.O.C.s may:
路 seriously reduce visibility,
路 cause unpleasant deposits in the eyes, ears and nasal passages,
路 contribute to skin or mucous membrane injury by chemical or mechanical action, per
se, or by the rigorous skin cleansing procedures necessary for their removal. [ACGIH]
This limit does not apply:
路 to brief exposures to higher concentrations
路 nor does it apply to those substances that may cause physiological impairment at
lower concentrations but for which a TLV has as yet to be determined.
This exposure standard applies to particles which
路 are insoluble or poorly soluble* in water or, preferably, in aqueous lung fluid (if
data is available) and

路 have a low toxicity (i.e.. are not cytotoxic, genotoxic, or otherwise chemically
reactive with lung tissue, and do not emit ionizing radiation, cause immune sensitization
, or cause toxic effects other than by inflammation or by a mechanism of lung overload).
ETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER:
Exposed individuals are reasonably expected to be warned, by smell, that the Exposure
Standard is being exceeded.
Odour Safety Factor (OSF) is determined to fall into either Class A or B.
The Odour Safety Factor (OSF) is defined as:
OSF= Exposure Standard (TWA) ppm/ Odour Threshold Value (OTV) ppm
Classification into classes follows:
Class OSF Description
A 550 Over 90% of exposed
individuals are aware by
smell that the Exposure
Standard (TLV- TWA for
example) is being reached,
even when distracted by
working activities
B 26- 550 As " A" for 50- 90% of
persons being distracted
C 1- 26 As " A" for less than 50% of
persons being distracted
D 0.18- 1 10- 50% of persons aware of
being tested perceive by
smell that the Exposure
Standard is being reached
E <0.18 As " D" for less than 10% of
persons aware of being tested
.
Odour Threshold Value: 0.10 ppm (detection), 0.35 ppm (recognition)
Although rats appear to be more susceptible than other animals anaemia is
not uncommon amongst humans following exposure. The TLV reflects the need
to maintain exposures below levels found to cause blood changes in
experimental animals. It is concluded that this limit will reduce the
significant risk of irritation, haematologic effects and other systemic
effects observed in humans and animals exposed to higher vapour
concentrations. The toxic effects typical of some other glycol ethers
(pancytopenia, testis atrophy and teratogenic effects) are not found with
this substance.
SODIUM BORATE, DECAHYDRATE:
It is the goal of the ACGIH (and other Agencies) to recommend TLVs (or their
equivalent) for all substances for which there is evidence of health effects at airborne
concentrations encountered in the workplace.
At this time no TLV has been established, even though this material may produce
adverse health effects (as evidenced in animal experiments or clinical experience).
Airborne concentrations must be maintained as low as is practically possible and
occupational exposure must be kept to a minimum.
NOTE: The ACGIH occupational exposure standard for Particles Not Otherwise Specified
(P.N.O.S) does NOT apply.

路 acclimate the worker to the irritant warning properties of these substances thus
increasing the risk of overexposure.
No data are currently available to establish a causal link between inhalation
exposures to sodium tetraborates and chronic respiratory and/or systemic effects.
An occupationally important toxic effect of the sodium tetraborates is their acute
irritant effect when in contact with skin and the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose and
other sites of the respiratory tract. The irritant properties increase with decreasing
water of hydration due
to the exothermic effect of hydration. The TLV-TWA of 1 mg/m3 for the anhydrous and
pentahydrate forms and 5 mg/m3 for the decahydrate is thought to be protective against
the acute irritant effects.
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:
Wear general protective gloves, eg. light weight rubber gloves.
For potentially heavy exposures:
Wear chemical protective gloves, eg. PVC. and safety footwear.
OTHER
No special equipment needed when handling small quantities.
OTHERWISE:

SWALLOWED
Swallowing of the liquid may cause aspiration into the lungs with the risk of chemical
pneumonitis; serious consequences may result.
(ICSC13733).
Accidental ingestion of the material may be damaging to the health of the individual.
Not normally a hazard due to physical form of product.
Considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial/industrial environments.
Central nervous system (CNS) depression may include nonspecific discomfort, symptoms of
giddiness, headache, dizziness, nausea, anaesthetic effects, slowed reaction time,
slurred speech and may progress to unconsciousness. Serious poisonings may result in
respiratory depression and may be fatal.
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.
Not considered to be a risk because of the extreme volatility of the gas.
SKIN
Repeated exposure may cause skin cracking, flaking or drying following normal handling
and use.
Spray mist may produce discomfort.
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
Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be accompanied by
narcosis, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack of coordination and vertigo.
Inhalation of aerosols (mists, fumes), generated by the material during the course of
normal handling, may be damaging to the health of the individual.
Common, generalised symptoms associated with toxic gas inhalation include:
路 central nervous system effects such as depression, headache, confusion, dizziness,
progressive stupor, coma and seizures;
路 respiratory system complications may include acute pulmonary oedema, dyspnoea, stridor,
tachypnoea, bronchospasm, wheezing and other reactive airway symptoms, and respiratory
arrest;
路 cardiovascular effects may include cardiovascular collapse, arrhythmias and cardiac
arrest;
路 gastrointestinal effects may also be present and may include mucous membrane irritation
, nausea and vomiting (sometimes bloody), and abdominal pain.
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
There is sufficient evidence to provide a strong presumption that human exposure to the
material may result in impaired fertility on the basis of: - clear evidence in animal
studies of impaired fertility in the absence of toxic effects, or evidence of impaired
fertility occurring at around the same dose levels as other toxic effects but which is
not a secondary non-specific consequence of other toxic effects.
There is sufficient evidence to provide a strong presumption that human exposure to the
material may result in developmental toxicity, generally on the basis of:
- clear results in appropriate animal studies where effects have been observed in the
absence of marked maternal toxicity, or at around the same dose levels as other toxic
effects but which are not secondary non-specific consequences of the other toxic effects.
Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce
cumulative health effects involving organs or biochemical systems.
Principal route of occupational exposure to the gas is by inhalation.
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.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to mixed hydrocarbons may produce narcosis with dizziness,
weakness, irritability, concentration and/or memory loss, tremor in the fingers and
tongue, vertigo, olfactory disorders, constriction of visual field, paraesthesias of the
extremities, weight loss and anaemia and degenerative changes in the liver and kidney.
Chronic exposure by petroleum workers, to the lighter hydrocarbons, has been associated
with visual disturbances, damage to the central nervous system, peripheral neuropathies
(including numbness and paraesthesias), psychological and neurophysiological deficits,
bone marrow toxicities (including hypoplasia possibly due to benzene) and hepatic and
renal involvement. Chronic dermal exposure to petroleum hydrocarbons may result in
defatting which produces localised dermatoses. Surface cracking and erosion may also
increase susceptibility to infection by microorganisms. One epidemiological study of
petroleum refinery workers has reported elevations in standard mortality ratios for skin
cancer along with a dose-response relationship indicating an association between routine
workplace exposure to petroleum or one of its constituents and skin cancer, particularly
melanoma. Other studies have been unable to confirm this finding.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
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 epidermis. Histologically there may
be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the
epidermis.
NOTE: Changes in kidney, liver, spleen and lungs are observed in animals
exposed to high concentrations of this substance by all routes.

Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Marine Pollutant:Not Determined
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.
Under aerobic conditions the material will degrade to water and carbon dioxide, while
under anaerobic processes it will produce water, methane and carbon dioxide.
Based on test results, as well as theoretical considerations, the potential for
bioaccumulation may be high. Toxic effects are often observed in species such as blue
mussel, daphnia, freshwater green algae, marine copepods and amphipods.

hydrocarbon total: 10 ug/l (UK max.).
