Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
This product has a low vapour pressure and is not expected to present an inhalation hazard at ambient conditions. Heating to high temperatures or mechanical actions, may produce vapours or fumes. Inhalation of vapours or fumes can cause respiratory tract irritation and CNS depression with symptoms of nausea, headaches, vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, light-headedness, reduced coordination, unconsciousness and possibly death.
Potential health effects
Hot asphalt burns skin and eyes. At higher concentrations (above 10 ppm), hydrogen sulphide is extremely toxic by inhalation, may cause respiratory-tract irritation and respiratory failure, coma and death. Pulmonary oedema can occur up to 24 hours after hydrogen sulphide exposure. While hydrogen sulphide emits a strong odour of rotten eggs, detection by smell is not reliable as a warning for exposure to this substance, as it may deaden the sense of smell quickly. Refer to Section 11
