May cause respiratory and digestive tract irritation. The toxicological properties of this material have not been fully investigated. Butyl Dioxitol Hazardous in case of eye contact (irritant), of ingestion, of inhalation. Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact(irritant, permeator). Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates CAUSES EYE IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. EMERGENCY OVERVIEW - CHRONIC HAZARD WARNING Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene No information found. Butyl Dioxitol May cause kidney injury. Repeated exposure may cause central nervous system damage. May cause cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation of the blood), acidosis, and quick, shallow breathing. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates NO ADVERSE EFFECTS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED IN HUMANS AS A RESULT OF CHRONIC EXPOSURE.

Potential health effects

Inhalation Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Breathing of the mists, vapors or fumes may irritate the nose, throat and lungs. Butyl Dioxitol: This material does not normally present an inhalation hazard, however, in applications where vapors (caused by high temperature) or mists (caused by mixing) are created, breathing may cause a mild burning sensation in the nose, throat and lungs. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Vapors or mist, expecially as generated from heating the material or as from exposure in poorly ventilated areas or confined spaces, may be irritating and cause discomfort in nose and throat. Prolonged exposure may cause difficulty breathing. Ingestion Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: May cause irritation of the mouth, throat, and gastrointestinal tract. Exposure may also cause central nervous system symptoms. Butyl Dioxitol: Liquid can directly enter the lungs (aspiration) when swallowed or vomited. Serious lung damage and possiblyfatal chemical pneumonia (chemical pneumonitis) can develop if this occurs. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: May be harmful by ingestion. Skin Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: May cause skin irritation. Butyl Dioxitol: May be slightly irritating to the skin. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Brief contact may cause slight irritation. Prolonged contact, as with clothing wetted with material, may cause more severe irritation and discomfort. Eyes Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Exposure to vapors, fumes or mists may cause irritation. Direct contact may cause irritation. Butyl Dioxitol: Irritating to the eyes causing a burning sensation, redness, swelling and/or blurred vision. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Causes irritation and possible injury to the cornea. Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure Inhalation Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Sore throat, coughing, labored breathing, sneezing and burning sensation, depending on the concentration and duration of exposure. May cause central nervous system depression or effects. Symptoms may include headache, excitation, euphoria, dizziness, incoordination, drowsiness, light-headedness, blurred vision, fatigue, tremors, convulsions, loss of consciousness, coma, respiratory arrest and death, depending on the concentration and duration of exposure. Butyl Dioxitol: Burning in nose and throat, coughing. Headache, dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, nausea. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Discomfort in nose and throat, nasal discharge, coughing, difficulty breathing. Ingestion Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Salivation, pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Exposure may also cause central nervous system symptoms similar to those listed under Inhalation. Butyl Dioxitol: Headache, dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, nausea, vomiting. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Abdominal discomfort, nausea, and diarrhea. Skin Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Drying, reddening, itching, and cracking. Repeated or prolonged contact with large amounts of this material may result in absorption through the skin to produce toxic effects. Butyl Dioxitol: Redness, pain and itching. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Local redness and swelling. Eyes Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Redness, tearing, and blurred vision. Butyl Dioxitol: Redness, tearing, and pain. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Excess blinking and tear production. Marked redness and swelling of the eye with injury to the cornea. Carcinogenicity Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: Not listed by NTP or IARC as a known or possible carcinogen. Butyl Dioxitol: Not listed as a known or anticipated carcinogen by NTP or IARC. Linear alkyl phenyl ethoxylates: Not listed by NTP or IARC as a known or possible carcinogen. Mutagenicity Bis(1-methylethyl) naphthalene: No information available.
