Other hazards which do not result in classification
Etibor-68 is a white, odourless, granular substance that is not flammable, combustible, or explosive, and has low acute oral and dermal toxicity.
Potential health effects
Inhalation is the most significant route of exposure in occupational and other settings. Dermal exposure is not usually a concern because Etibor-68 is poorly absorbed through intact skin. Inhalation Occasional mild irritation effects to nose and throat may occur from inhalation of Etibor-68 dusts at levels higher than 10 mg/m3. Eye contact Etibor-68 is a serious eye irritant. Skin contact Etibor-68 does not cause irritation to intact skin. Ingestion Products containing Etibor-68 are not intended for ingestion. Etibor-68 has low acute toxicity. Small amounts (e.g. a teaspoonful) swallowed accidentally are not likely to cause effects; swallowing amounts larger than that may cause gastrointestinal symptoms. Potential ecological effects Large amounts of Etibor-68 can be harmful to plants and other species. Therefore releases to the environment should be minimized. Signs and symptoms of exposure Symptoms of accidental over-exposure to Etibor-68 have been associated with ingestion or absorption through large areas of damaged skin. These may include nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, with delayed effects of skin redness and peeling. Refer to section 11 for details on Toxicological data.
