Principle Routes of Exposure

Inhalation, Skin Contact, Eye Contact SIGNS & SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE EYES: Exposure to vapors can cause conjunctivitis or irritation to the eyes. SKIN: Prolonged contact can cause irritation of the skin. INGESTION: Not expected to be ingested. INHALATION: Inhalation of high vapor or mist concentrations can cause headaches and nausea. It may also cause irritation of throat, nose and lungs.

Acute Health Hazards

Excessive exposure can cause pulmonary edema.

Health hazards

Diethylene glycol monomethyl ether has been reported to cause slight toxic effects to the fetus at doses non-toxic to the mother following skin contact. Birth defects have been reported in laboratory animals only following high oral doses, exposures which have little relevance to potential human exposure. CARCINOGENICITY: IARC has determined that occupational exposure to Titanium Dioxide is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). IARC concluded lung tumors were observed in rats following high dose exposure by inhalation and in female rats exposed by intra-tracheal instillation. Other studies have shown no tumors in rats following inhalation exposure and no tumors in mice or rats following oral exposure.
