Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: IRRITATION OF
EYES, SKIN, AND RESPIRATORY SYSTEM. MAY CAUSE NERVOUS SYSTEM
DEPRESSION. EXTREME OVEREXPOSURE MAY RESULT IN UNCONSCIOUSNESS AND
POSSIBLY DEATH.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:ETHYLBENZENE IS CLASSIFIED BY IARC AS
POSSIBLE CARCINOGENIC TO HUMANS (2B) BASED ON INADEQUATE EVIDENCE
IN HUMANS AND SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE IN LABORATORY ANIMALS. THERE IS
NO EVIDENCE THAT ETHYLBENZENE CAUSES CANCER IN HUMANS.
Effects of Overexposure:HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, LOSS OF
COORDINATION ARE INDICTIONS OF EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE TO VAPORS OR
SPRAY MISTS. REDNESS AND ITCHING OR BURNING SENSATION MAY INDICATE
EYE OR EXCESSIVE SKIN EXPOSURE.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE GENERALLY RECOGNIZED.

First Aid:INHALATION: IF AFFECTED, REMOVE FROM EXPOSURE. RESTORE
BREATHING. KEEP WARM AND QUIET. SKIN CONTACT: WASH AFFECTED AREA
WITH SOAP AND WATER. REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND LAUNDER
BEFORE REUSE. EYE CONTACT: FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: IF SWALLOWED DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Flash Point:=-17.6C, 0.F
PROPELLANT
Lower Limits:1.0
Upper Limits:12.7
Extinguishing Media:CARBON DIOXIDE, DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM.
Fire Fighting Procedures:FULL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT INCLUDING SELF
CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS SHOULD BE USED. WATER SPRAY MAY BE
INEFFECTIVE. IF WATER IS USED, FOG NOZZLES ARE PREFERABLE. WATER
MAY BE USED TO COOL CLOSED CO NTAINERS TO PREVENT PRESSURE BUILD UP
AND POSSIBLE AUTOIGNITION OR EXPLOSION WHEN EXPOSED TO EXTREME
HEAT.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:ISOLATE FROM HEAT, ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT,
SPARKS, FLAMES. CLOSED CONTAINERS MAY EXPLODE WHEN EXPOSED TO
EXTREME HEAT. APPLICATION TO HOT SURFACE REQUIRES SPECIAL
PRECAUTIONS. DURING EMERGENCIES OVEREXP OSURE TO DECOMPOSITION
PRODUCTS MAY CAUSE HEALTH HAZARD. SYMPTOMS MAY NOT BE IMMEDIATELY
APPARENT, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION

Spill Release Procedures:REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION. VENTILATE AND
REMOVE WITH INERT ABSORBENT.
Neutralizing Agent:NOT RELEVANT

Handling and Storage Precautions:AVOID HEAT, SPARKS, FLAMES. VAPORS
WILL ACCUMULATE AND IGNITE EXPLOSIVELY. DURING USE AND UNTIL ALL
VAPORS ARE GONE: KEEP AREA VENTILATED, DO NOT SMOKE, EXTINGUISH ALL
FLAMES, PILOT LIGHTS, HEATERS. TURN OFF STOVES, ELECTRIC TOOLS AND
APPLIANCES, OTHER IGNITION SOURCES.
Other Precautions:CONSULT NFPA CODE. USE APPROVED BONDING AND GROUNDING
PROCEDURES. CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE. DO NOT PUNCTURE, INCINERATE,
OR EXPOSE TO TEMPERATURE ABOVE 120F. HEAT FROM SUNLIGHT, RADIATORS,
STOVES, HOT WATER, AND OTHER SOURCES COULD CAUSE CONTAINER TO
BURST. DO NOT TAKE INTERNALLY. KEEP OUT OF REACH O F CHILDREN

Respiratory Protection:IF PERSONAL EXPOSURE CANNOT BE CONTROLLED BELOW
APPLICABLE LIMITS BY VENTILATION; WEAR PROPERLY FITTED ORGANIC
VAPOR/PARTICULATE RESPIRATOR APPROVED BY NIOSH/MSHA FOR PROTECTION
AGAINST MATERIALS IN I NGREDIENTS.
Ventilation:LOCAL EXHAUST PREFERABLE. GENERAL EXHAUST ACCEPTABLE IF
EXPOSURE IS BELOW EXPOSURE LIMITS.
Protective Gloves:NONE REQUIRED FOR NORMAL USE. WEAR CHEMICAL RESISTANT
GLOVES FOR LONG CONTACT.
Eye Protection:WEAR SAFETY SPECTACLES WITH UNPERFORATED SIDESHIELDS.
Other Protective Equipment:USE ONLY WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. WASH

Toxicological Information:LIFETIME INHALATION EXPOSURE OF RATS AND MICE
TO HIGH ETHYLBENZENE CONCENTRATIONS RESULTING IN INCREASES IN
CERTAIN TYPES OF CANCER, INCLUDING KIDNEY TUMORS IN RATS AND LUNG
AND LIVER TUMORS IN MICE. THESE EFFECTS WERE NOT OBSERVED IN
ANIMALS EXPOSED TO LOWER CONCENTRATIONS. METHYL ETHYL KETONE MAY
INCREASE THE NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS OF OTHER SOLVENTS. PROLONGED
OVEREXPOSURE TO SOLVENT INGREDIENTS MAY CAUSE ADVERSE EFFECTS TO
THE LIVER, URINARY, CARDIOVASCULAR AND REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEMS.
REPORTS HAVE ASSOCIATED REPEATED AND PROLONGED OVEREXPOSURE TO
