TOLUENE & ISOOCTANE MATRIX - PHOSPHOROUS CALIBRATION SET

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Identification: TOLUENE FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. Liquid can accumulate static charge by flow or agitation. Vapor is heavier than air and may spread long distances. Distant ignition and flashback are possible. Liquid can float on water and may travel to distant locations and/or spread fire. Can decompose at high temperatures forming toxic gases. Closed containers may rupture and explode in heat of fire. Mild central nervous system depressant. Vapor may cause headache, nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion and incoordination. SKIN IRRITANT. Causes moderate skin irritation. Aspiration hazard. Swallowing or vomiting of the liquid may result in aspiration into the lungs. POSSIBLE TERATOGEN/EMBRYOTOXIN - may harm the unborn child, based on animal information. Confined space hazard. Can accumulate in confined spaces, producing a fire and toxicity hazard. ISOOCTANE FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. Can accumulate static charge. Vapor is heavier than air and may spread long distances. Distant ignition and flashback are possible. Liquid can float on water and may travel to distant locations and/or spread fire. Central nervous system depressant. High vapor concentrations may cause headache, nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, unconsciousness and death. Aspiration hazard. Swallowing or vomiting of the liquid may result in aspiration into the lungs. GHS LABELING SYMBOLS:
