Decomposition products are hazardous.
Health hazards
Eye contact may cause irritation with discomfort, tearing, or blurring of vision. Overexposure by inhalation may cause liver damage with altered enzyme levels, and temporary nervous system depression with anesthetic effects such as dizziness, weakness, headache, confusion, incoordination, and loss of consciousness. With overexposure (>2%), possibly temporary alteration of the heart’s electrical activity with irregular pulse, palpitations, or inadequate circulation. Increased susceptibility to the effects of this material may observed in persons with pre-existing disease of the central nervous system, cardiovascular system, and liver.
