Hazards

LD50 LC50 Mixture:INHALATION LC50 (RAT) IS 220,000 PPM
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION OF HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF
VAPOR IS HARMFUL & MAY CAUSE HEART IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS
OR DEATH. INTENTIONAL MISUSE OR DELIBERATE INHALATION MAY CAUSE
DEATH WITHOUT WARNING. VAPOR RED UCES OXYGEN AVAILABLE FOR
BREATHING & IS HEAVIER THAN AIR. LIQUID CONTCAT CAN CAUSE
FROSTBITE.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE OF THE COMPONENTS IN THIS MATERIAL
IS LISTED BY IARC, NTP OR OSHA OR ACGIH AS A CARCINOGEN.
Effects of Overexposure:OVEREXPOSURE TO THE VAPORS BY INHALATION MAY
INCLUDE TEMPORARY NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSION WITH ANESTHETIC EFFECTS
SUCH AS DIZZINESS, HEADACHE, CONFUSION, INCOORDINATION & LOSS OF
CONSCIOUSNESS. HIGHER EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE TEMPORARY ALTERATIONOF
THE HEARTS ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY WITH IRREGULAR PULSE OR INADEQUATE
CIRCULATION
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:INDIVIDUALS WITH PREEXISTING
DISEASE OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS OR CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM MAY HAVE
INCREASED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO THE TOXICITY OF EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE.
SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE FROSTBITE.

First Aid

First Aid:INHALATION-IF LARGE CONCENTRATIONS ARE INHALED, IMMEDIATELY
REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. KEEP PERSON CALM. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE CPR.
IF BREATHING IS HARD, GIVE OXYGEN. CALL PHYSICIAN. SKIN-FLUSH WITH
WATER FOR 15 MIN. TREAT FOR FROSTBITE IF NEEDED BY GENTLY WARMING
AFFECTED AREA. CALL A PHYSICIAN IF IRRITATION IS PRESENT.
EYE-IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR 15 MIN. CALL A
PHYSICIAN.
