Hazard statements
WARNING! Combustible liquid and vapor. May affect the central nervous system causing dizziness, headache or nausea. May be harmful if inhaled. Harmful if swallowed. May cause eye, skin, and respiratory tract irritation. Closed container may forcibly rupture under extreme heat. Use cold water spray to cool fire- exposed containers to minimize the risk of rupture. Vapors may travel to areas away from work site before igniting/flashing back to vapor source. Vapors or mist may be a fire and explosion hazard when exposed to high temperature or ignition. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling solvents may be harmful or fatal. May cause kidney damage. May cause liver damage. May cause blood disorder.
Principle Routes of Exposure
Inhalation, Skin absorption, Skin contact, Eye Contact, Ingestion
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
Skin disorders, Respiratory disorders, Eye disorders HUMAN EFFECTS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE INHALATION: Breathing of vapor or mist is possible. Breathing small amounts of this material during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects. Breathing large amounts may be harmful. Symptoms are not expected at air concentrations below the recommended exposure limits, if applicable (see Section 8.). Amine –OH Polyol Ester: Inhalation is unlikely due to low vapor pressure. At eleated temperatures, may cause respiratory tract irritation with symptoms of coughing, sore throat and runny nose. SKIN: May cause mild skin irritation. Symptoms may include redness and burning of skin. Passage of this material into the body through the skin is possible, but it is unlikely that this would result in harmful effects during safe handling and use. Amine –OH Polyol Ester: May cause slight irritation. EYE: May cause mild eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing, and redness. Amine –OH Polyol Ester: Not expected to be irritating INGESTION: Swallowing small amounts of this material during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects. Swallowing large amounts may be harmful. Exposure causes severe irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. Amine –OH Polyol Ester: Ingestion is not a typical route of industrial exposure. Not expected to be harmful if swallowed, Aliphatic Carboxylic Ester: May be harmful if swallowed. Carcinogenicity: No Carcinogenic substances as defined by IARC, NTP and/or OSHA. This material is not listed as a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the National Toxicology Program (NTP), or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). SYMPTOMS: Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through breathing, swallowing, and/or passage of the material through the skin may include: stomach or intestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea), irritation (nose, throat, and airways), central nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache, Unconsciousness) TARGET ORGANS: Overexposure to this material (or its components) has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in laboratory animals: kidney damage, liver damage. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: Based on the available information, risk to the fetus from maternal exposure to this material cannot be assessed.
Precautionary statements
Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use personal protective equipment as required. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Keep away from open flames and hot surfaces. IF ON SKIN (or hair): Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower. IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical advice/attention. IF SWALLOWED: Get immediate medical advice/attention. IF exposed or concerned Get medical advice/attention. If skin irritation or rash occurs Get medical advice/attention .
