Other hazards which do not result in classification

Moderately irritating to eyes. Slightly irritating to respiratory system. A component or components of this material may cause cancer. This product contains benzene which may cause leukaemia (AML - acute myelogenous leukae- mia). May cause MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndrome). This material is a static accumulator. Even with proper grounding and bonding, this material can still accumulate an electrostatic charge. If sufficient charge is allowed to accumulate, electrostatic discharge and ignition of flammable air- vapour mixtures can occur. Liquid evaporates quickly and can ignite leading to a flash fire, or an explosion in a confined space. Ether oxygenates are significantly more water soluble and less biodegradable than benzene, tol- uene, ethyl benzene and xylenes (BTEX)
