Combustible liquid

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Emergency Overview Physical State @20°C liquid Color colorless Odor Characteristic Combustible liquid. May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. Vapors inhaled in strong concentration have a narcotic effect on the central nervous system. The inhalation of vapours or aerosols may be irritating for the respiratory tract and for mucous membranes. If swallowed accidentally, the product may enter the lungs due to its low viscosity and lead to the rapid development of very serious pulmonary lesions (medical survey during 48 hours). Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Incomplete combustion and thermolysis may produce gases of varying toxicity such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, various hydrocarbons, aldehydes and soot. These may be highly dangerous if inhaled in confined spaces or at high concentration.

Health hazards

Inhalation Vapors inhaled in strong concentration have a narcotic effect on the central nervous system. The inhalation of vapours or aerosols may be irritating for the respiratory tract and for mucous membranes. Skin contact Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. Eye contact Burning feeling and temporary redness. Ingestion If swallowed accidentally, the product may enter the lungs due to its low viscosity and lead to the rapid development of very serious pulmonary lesions (medical survey during 48 hours). Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, Abdominal pain. Skin corrosion/irritation Not classified based on available data. Serious eye damage/eye irritation Not classified based on available data. Sensitization Not classified based on available data. Carcinogenicity Not classified based on available data. Mutagenic effects The mutagenic potential of the substance has been extensively studied in a range of in-vivo and in-vitro assays. Germ Cell Mutagenicity Genetic toxicity : negative. Reproductive toxicity Not classified based on available data. Developmental Toxicity Results of guideline developmental toxicity studies on the substance and OECD developmental toxicity screening studies showed no evidence of developmental toxicity in rats. STOT - single exposure Not classified based on available data. STOT - repeated exposure Not classified based on available data.

Aspiration hazard

May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. The fluid can enter the lungs and cause damage (chemical pneumonitis, potentially fatal).

Environmental hazards

Not classified based on available data.

2.3 Other hazards

Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.
