SECTION 2: Hazards identification

This material is hazardous according to UN GHS Criteria. Classification includes all GHS hazard classes. For hazard categories with two cut-off/concentration limits, classification was based on the higher limit. GHS CLASSIFICATION Flammable liquid: Category 4 Acute inhalation toxicant: Category 4 Skin irritation: Category 2 Germ Cell Mutagen: Category 1B Carcinogen: Category 1B Reproductive toxicant (developmental): Category 2 Specific target organ toxicant (repeated exposure): Category 2 Acute aquatic toxicant: Category 1 Chronic aquatic toxicant: Category 1

Other physicochemical hazards

Thermal burn hazard - contact with hot material may cause thermal burns. Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an ignition. Material can release vapours that readily form flammable mixtures. Vapour accumulation could flash and/or explode if ignited. Combustible.

Health hazards

High-pressure injection under skin may cause serious damage. Hydrogen sulphide, a highly toxic gas, is expected to be present. Signs and symptoms of overexposure to hydrogen sulphide include respiratory and eye irritation, dizziness, nausea, coughing, a sensation of dryness and pain in the nose, and loss of consciousness. Odour does not provide a reliable indicator of the presence of hazardous levels in the atmosphere. May be irritating to the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs.

Environmental hazards

No additional hazards. NOTE: This material should not be used for any other purpose than the intended use in Section 1 without expert advice. Health studies have shown that chemical exposure may cause potential human health risks which may vary from person to person.
