Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Not applicable. CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE EFFECTS Avoid long-term and repeated contact Repeated exposure to vapors above recommended exposure limits (see Section 8) may cause iritation of the respiratory system and permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents can be harmful or fatal. This product contains toluene. Toluene inhalation in animals (greater than 1500 ppm) and intentional inhalation of toluene-containing products by humans (e.g. glue) has caused adverse fetal development effects. This product contains cobalt or a cobalt compound which is a possible cancer hazard based on animal data. The risk of cancer depends on the duration and level of exposure. High exposures to xylenes in some: animal studies have been reported to cause health effects on the developing embryo and fetus. These effects were often at levels toxic to the mother. The effects of long-term, low level exposures to this product have not been determined. Safe handiing of this material on a long-term basis should emphasize the prevention of all contact with this material to avoid any effects from repetitive acute exposures.
