2.3 Other hazards

Due to the presence of solvents there is a possibility of organ system damage. The presence of the solvent component suggests that the product may be irritating to the respiratory system. The product contains Naphthalene which is considered extremely hazardous to children - the SUSMP states that Naphthalene can be fatal to children if swallowed. The product is a combustible liquid and will potentially form flammable/explosive mixtures in air. There may be static discharge issues with the product in large scale operations that could lead to a fire. People with pre-existing skin conditions, such as eczema or dermatitis, should take precautions so as not to exacerbate the condition. As for all chemical products, persons should not expose open wounds, cuts, abrasions or irritated skin to this material.
