Principle Routes of Exposure
Ingestion, Eyes, Inhalation, Skin Absorption
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
Asthma, Heart disease, Respiratory disorder Inhalation : Inhalation of vapors is irritating to the respiratory system, may cause throat pain and cough. Inhalation of aerosol may cause irritation to the upper respiratory tract. Higher exposure may cause lung edema, circulatory collapse and unconsciousness. Skin : May cause skin irritation and/or dermatitis. Prolonged skin exposure may cause destruction of the dermis with impairment of the skin to regenerate at site of contact. Eyes : Causes serious eye irritation. Blurred vision May cause impairment of vision and corneal damage Ingestion : Ingestion of high concentrations may cause injuries to gastrointestinal tract, liver and kidneys. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Chronic Exposure : Repeated inhalation exposure may cause impairment of lung function and permanent lung damage. Effects from chronic skin exposure would be similar to those from single exposure except for effects secondary to tissue destruction.
