Harmful if swallowed

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

*** Emergency Overview ***: Extremely Flammable! Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin, and if swallowed. May cause burns to the skin. Affects the central nervous system. Contact with eyes or skin causes irritation. Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: Exposure to liquid, aerosol, or vapors may cause irritation, tearing, redness, and swelling accompanied by a stinging sensation. Direct eye contact may cause irritation. Exposure may cause conjunctivitis. Damage may occur to the cornea or lens of the eye. Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: Direct skin contact may cause irritation. Symptoms may include swelling, redness, and rash. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis, drying, and defatting due to the solvent properties. Exposure may cause skin burns. Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Inhalation may cause irritation to the respiratory tract (nose, mouth, mucous membranes) & acute nervous system depression characterized by the following progressive steps: headache, dizziness, staggering gait, confusion, unconsciousness, or coma. Exposure may cause pulmonary edema. Exposure may cause coughing. Inhalation of vapors may cause feelings of euphoria and anesthetic effects. Prolonged exposure may cause narcosis, rapid breathing and death from asphyxiation. Inhalation may cause headaches, difficult breathing, and loss of consciousness. Respiratory depression, failure, or death may result from overexposure. Overexposure to METHYL NORMAL PROPYL KETONE, a component of this formulation, has been suggested as a cause of mild, reversible effects on the livers and kidneys of laboratory animals. Exposure to high concentrations or overexposure to one or more components may cause respiratory depression or failure, difficult breathing, chest constriction, loss of consciousness, or death. Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. May result in possible corrosive action in the mouth, stomach tissue, and digestive tract. Vomiting may cause aspiration of the solvent, resulting in chemical pneumonitis. Ingestion may cause a burning sensation in the mouth and esophagus. Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Ingestion causes damage to the central nervous system. It may include, acute nervous system depression, which is characterized by the following progressive steps: headache, dizziness, staggering gait, confusion, drowsiness, unconsciousness, or coma. Lung inflammation or other lung injury may occur if methyl n- propyl ketone enters the lungs through vomiting or swallowing. Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards: Prolonged contact will cause drying and cracking of the skin, due to defatting action. Skin sensitization, asthma, or other allergic responses may develop. Overexposure to ETHYL BENZENE, a component of this formulation, has been shown to cause damage to the liver and kidneys in tests in laboratory animals. Exposure to METHYL NORMAL PROPYL KETONE, a component of this formulation, has been found to cause kidney damage in male rats. The mechanism by which this toxicity occurs is specific to the male rat and the kidney effects are not expected to occur in humans. MINERAL SPIRITS, an ingredient of this formulation, has been shown to cause harm to the fetus in laboratory animal studies. Harm to the fetus occurs only at exposure levels that harm the pregnant animal. The relevance of these findings to humans is uncertain. Methyl n-propyl ketone, a component of this formulation, has been shown to cause harm to the fetus in labortory animal studies. Harm to the fetus occurs only at exposure levels that harm the pregnant animal. The relevance of these findings to humans is uncertain. Ethylbenzene, a component of this formulation, has been shown to cause harm to the fetus in labortory animal studies. Harm to the fetus occurs only at exposure levels that harm the pregnant animal. The relevance of these findings to humans is uncertain.
