SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Potential health effects
of exposure Flammable. Toxic by ingestion, inhalation and skin contact. Irritant to skin and eyes. Naphthalene: investigated as a tumorigen, mutagen and reproductive effector. IARC group 2b carcinogen. Xylene (o,m,p- isomers): are reported as teratogenic and reproductive effectors in rodents. The substance is toxic to blood, kidneys, the nervous system, liver. Repeated or prolonged exposure can cause cumula- tive effects in target organs. Inhalation of high concentrations may cause irritation of the nose and throat and signs of nervous system depression (headache, fatigue, dizziness and drowsiness). Diesel is expected to show evidence of skin carcinogenic activity based on mutagenic and / or analytical data. Possible risk of irreversible effects. Solvent naphta (petroleum), heavy aromatics: harmful by ingestion, inhalation and skin contact. If swallowed, aspiration into the lungs may cause severe pulmonary injury. Inhalation of vapours or mists can cause irritation of the respiratory tract, nausea, headaches, dizziness and other central nervous system effects. Eye contact may cause severe irritation and possible damage. Skin contact may cause irritation which can be severe. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis and sensitization. Listed carcinogen: IARC: Yes NTP: Yes
