EMERGENCY OVERVIEW IMMEDIATE CONCERNS: Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors and/or aerosols which may be formed at elevated temperatures may be irritating to eyes and respiratory tract.

Potential health effects

EYES: Severely irritating. If not removed promptly, will injure eye tissue, which may result in permanent damage. SKIN: Prolonged or repeated contact can result in defatting and drying of the skin which may result in skin irritation and dermatitis (rash). Absorption through intact skin is possible. SKIN ABSORPTION: Skin absorption can occur. INGESTION: Single dose toxicity is low to moderate. If vomiting occurs, liquid can be aspirated into lungs, causing chemical pneumonia/systemic effects. Psychotropic, CNS, and gastrointestinal effects possible. INHALATION: Prolonged or repeated inhalation may cause lung damage and/or central nervous system disturbances. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE EYES Symptoms of overexposure include stinging, tearing, redness and pain SKIN: Prolonged exposure causes redness, pain, drying and cracking of the skin. INGESTION: Swallowing of this material may result in nausea, vomiting and weakness followed by central nervous system depression. INHALATION: High concentrations may lead to central nervous system effects (drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, headaches, paralysis and loss of consciousness). ACUTE TOXICITY: Overexposure may cause dizziness and loss of concentration. At higher levels, CNS depression and cardiac arrhythmia may result.

Principle Routes of Exposure

Inhalation is major route of entry SENSITIZATION: Possible cardiac sensitization.
