Response

P302+P352 IF ON SKIN Wash with plenty of water P304+P340 IF INHALED Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing P305+P351+P338 IF IN EYES Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. P308+P313 IF exposed or concerned Get medical advice/ attention P321: Specific treatment is required. P332+P313 If skin irritation occurs Get medical advice/attention P337+P313 If eye irritation persists Get medical advice/attention P362: Take off contaminated clothing.

Storage

P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. P405: Store locked up.

Disposal

P501: Dispose of contents/container according to local, regional, national, and international regulations. EMERGENCY OVERVIEW PHYSICAL APPEARANCE: Contains methylene chloride which is a nonflammable liquid with a mildly sweet odor. IMMEDIATE CONCERNS: DANGER! Poison. Contains methylene chloride which is harmful if inhaled. Can also cause skin and eye irritation. Methylene Chloride is a possible cancer hazard. May cause cancer based on animal data.

Potential health effects

EYES: Can cause moderate to severe eye irritation with temporary damage possible. SKIN: Prolonged or repeated contact of liquid can cause irritation, defatting of skin, and dermatitis. Prolonged single exposure can result in a progressively severe burning sensation or redness. SKIN ABSORPTION: Can be absorbed through the skin but not in sufficient amounts to cause adverse effects. INGESTION: Low toxicity if swallowed. Small amounts swallowed incidental to normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury; however, swallowing larger amounts may cause injury. Aspiration into the lungs may occur during ingestion or vomiting, resulting in rapid absorption and injury to other body systems. INHALATION: Inhalation is the major potential route of exposure. Exposure to high concentrations of vapor or mist can cause central nervous system depression with symptoms of headache, dizziness, stupor, loss of consciousness or death depending on concentration and duration of exposure. Exposure to high concentrations can cause irregular heartbeat, cardiac arrest and death. Overexposure has been shown to cause adverse effects on the lungs, liver, kidney, nervous system and internal organs. Carboxyhemoglobin levels can be elevated in persons exposed to methylene chloride and can cause a substantial stress on the cardiovascular system. CARCINOGENICITY: Methylene chloride has caused cancer in certain laboratory animal tests. IARC has classified methylene chloride in Group 2B as a substance considered possibly carcinogenic to humans. Methylene chloride appears on the NTP carcinogen list.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Alcoholism, acute and chronic liver and kidney disease, chronic lung disease, anemia, coronary disease or rhythm disorders of the heart. Exposure can result in cardiac sensitization and increase the risk of cardiac arrest.

Principle Routes of Exposure

Inhalation is the major potential route of entry CANCER STATEMENT: Methylene chloride has caused cancer in certain laboratory animal tests. IARC has classified methylene chloride in Group 2B as a substance considered possibly carcinogenic to humans. Methylene chloride appears on the NTP carcinogen list. IRRITANCY: Slight to moderate eye and skin irritation.
