Other hazards which do not result in classification
Vapours are heavier than air. Vapours may travel across the ground and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger.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.Slightly irritating to respiratory system.Slightly irritating to the eye.Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.
Other physicochemical hazards
