Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: VAPOR IS HEAVIER THAN AIR
AND CAN CAUSE SUFFOCATION BY REDUCING OXYGEN AVAILABLE FOR
BREATHING. BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR MAY CAUSE
LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF B REATH, AND MAY LEAD TO
NARCOSIS, CARDIACIRREGULARITIES, ULNCONSCIOUSNESS OF DEATH. SKIN:
LIQUID CAN CAUSE FROSTBITE
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:DATA PER MSDS
Effects of Overexposure:BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR MAY
CAUSE LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF BREATH, AND MAY
LEAD TO NARCOSIS, CARDIAC IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS OR DEATH.
LIQUID CONTACT MAY CAUSE FROSTBITE.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH PRE-EXISTING SKIN
DISORDERS MAY BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THIS AGENT.

First Aid

First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR, CALL A PHYSICIAN. IF NOT
BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION.IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT,

WITH WATER . SKIN: FLUSH WITH WATER. IF IRRITATIONPRESISTS, GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION. ORAL: GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT
INDUCE VOMITING AS THE HAZARD OF ASPIRATING INTO THE LUNGS IS TOO
GREAT.
