Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Colorless, volatile liquid with ethereal and faint sweetish odor. Non-flammable material. Overexposure may cause dizziness and loss of concentration. At higher levels, CNS depression and cardiac arrhythmia may result from exposure. Vapors displace air and can cause asphyxiation in confined spaces. At high temperatures (>250°C), decomposition products may include Hydrochloric Acid (HCl), Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) and carbonyl halides.
Health hazards
SKIN: Prolonged and/or repeated contact with this solvent can cause irritation of the skin (defatting of skin). EYES: Irritant. Liquid contact will irritate and may cause conjunctivitis. INHALATION: Genetron 11 has a relatively low order of acute toxicity. When oxygen levels in air are reduced to 12- 14% by displacement, symptoms of asphyxiation, loss of coordination, increased pulse rate and deeper respiration will occur. In repeated exposure tests with animals, changes were noted in liver functions and lipid production at levels above 100ppm. At higher levels, cardiac arrhythmia may occur. INGESTION: Discomfort due to volatility would be expected. Some of the inhalation effects could be expected. DELAYED EFFECTS: None identified.
