SECTION 2: Hazards identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Colorless liquid with a kerosene odor. Can cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Potential health effects
Trauma and burns secondary to explosions and fires can result. In enclosed spaces, oxygen may be displaced by vapors or consumed by combustion. Incomplete combustion will produce carbon monoxide and other toxic gases. INHALATION: Overexposure may cause weakness, headache, nausea, confusion, blurred vision, drowsiness and other central nervous system effects. Extremely high-level exposure may result in dizziness, irregular heartbeat, coma, collapse and death. EYE CONTACT: Contact may cause eye irritation. Naphthalene vapor causes eye irritation. SKIN CONTACT: Contact may irritate or burn skin. Absorption through the skin may cause symptoms of intoxication. INGESTION: Based on acute toxicity studies in animals, Jet Fuel is practically non-toxic by ingestion. If aspirated (liquid enters lung) following ingestion, severe lung irritation and pulmonary edema (swelling of lung tissue) may occur. Aspiration may also result in central nervous system depression or excitement. Serious, permanent lung damage may result. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain may occur following ingestion
