Other physicochemical hazards

Highly flammable liquid and vapour. Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapours can travel considerable distances to a source of ignition where they can ignite, flash back, or explode. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated.

Health hazards

Immediate Health Effects: Can cause poisoning if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed by the skin. Symptoms of poisoning may appear even after several hours.
