Other hazards

Vapour is heavier than air and can travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flashback Vapours may form explosive mixture with air Auto ignition on large surfaces Hazardous polymerisation may occur Polymerization is a highly exothermic reaction and may generate sufficient heat to cause thermal decomposition and/or rupture containers Components of the product may be absorbed into the body by inhalation and ingestion Vapour is heavier than air and can travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flashback Vapours may form explosive mixture with air Auto ignition on large surfaces Hazardous polymerisation may occur Polymerization is a highly exothermic reaction and may generate sufficient heat to cause thermal decomposition and/or rupture containers Components of the product may be absorbed into the body by inhalation and ingestion
