3.1 Hazards classifications HMIS® rating (product as packaged): Health: 1 * Fire: 2 Reactivity: 1 PPE: H Hazardous Materials Identification System and HMIS are registered trademarks of the National Paint and Coatings Association. Note: Respiratory protection is only recommended in the event that ventilation or engineering controls are unable to maintain exposures below recommended levels; or in the event of a spill or other emergency response situation. Canadian WHMIS Classification: D2A, B3 3.2 Emergency overview and potential hazards Signal Word: WARNING Physical Hazards: This material will flash but does not sustain combustion. Combustible liquid and vapor. Acute health effects Route of entry or possible contact: eyes , skin , inhalation , ingestion Eye contact: May cause eye irritation. Skin contact: May cause skin irritation. May be absorbed through skin. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. At higher aerosol/vapor concentrations: Inhalation may cause central nervous system effects. Mucous membrane contact: May cause mucous membrane irritation. Ingestion: Ingestion is not expected in industrial use. Harmful if swallowed. Small amounts of the liquid aspirated into the respiratory tract during ingestion or vomiting may cause inflammation of the lungs. Additional information on acute health effects: The health hazard evaluation is based on test results and/or on known properties of ingredients. This material releases methanol upon hydrolysis. According to literature methanol (CAS-No. 67-56-1) irritates mucous membranes, has skin drying and narcotic effects up to coma or death. Absorption by the skin is possible. Possibility of damage to heart, kidneys, liver and optic nerves (blindness) over a period of time. Ingestion is not expected during industrial use.

Chronic health effects: This material contains toluene (CAS-No. 108-88-3). May cause damage to kidneys, liver and bone marrow. May cause central nervous system effects. In animal test only in concentration with maternal toxicity foetal damage was observed. There is no clear correlation between toluene exposure and foetal damage in human. Prolonged and repeated skin exposure may cause defatting, drying, and cracking. Medical conditions which may be aggravated by exposure: Methanol may aggravate existing liver and/or kidney diseases. Target organs affected: Liver, Kidneys, Blood and Blood Producing Organs, Brain and Nervous System. Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Refer to Acute Health Effects, listed above. Carcinogens/Reproductive toxins: There are no carcinogenic ingredients present at or over 0.1% in this material. This material contains >= 1% of a known reproductive toxin. Toluene has been identified as being a developmental reproductive toxin based on the results of animal studies. See Section 11 for Toxicological Information, if any.
