| EXPOSURE |
|
PREVENT GENERATION OF MISTS!
|
|
| Inhalation |
Headache. Dizziness. Drowsiness.
|
Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection.
|
Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
|
| Skin |
Dry skin.
|
Protective gloves.
|
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
|
| Eyes |
Redness. Pain.
|
Safety spectacles.
|
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
|
| Ingestion |
Nausea (further see Inhalation).
|
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
|
Rinse mouth. Refer for medical attention.
|
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING |
Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place (extra personal protection: A/P2 filter respirator for organic vapour and harmful dust).

| IMPORTANT DATA | |
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
COLOURLESS LIQUID OR WHITE CRYSTALS , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV: 10 ppm; 49 mg/m 3 (ACGIH 1993-1994). |
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C; on spraying or dispersing, however, much faster. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes. The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system. Exposure at high level may result in unconsciousness. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: The liquid defats the skin. |
