Statements

H226

Flammable liquid and vapour

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Emergency Overview Physical State @20°C liquid Color colorless Odor Characteristic May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. Inhalation of high concentrations of vapor or aerosols may cause irritation of the upper respiratory tract. Vapors inhaled in strong concentration have a narcotic effect on the central nervous system. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause central nervous system damage. Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

Flammable liquids - Category 3 Aspiration toxicity - Category 1 Specific target organ systemic toxicity (single exposure) - Category 3 Specific target organ systemic toxicity (repeated exposure) - Category 1 Acute aquatic toxicity - Category 2 Chronic aquatic toxicity - Category 2

Contains

Hydrocarbons, C9-C12, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, aromatics (2-25%)

Health hazards

Inhalation Vapors inhaled in strong concentration have a narcotic effect on the central nervous system. Irritation of the respiratory tract due to excess fume. Causes headache, drowsiness or other effects to the central nervous system. loss of consciousness. Skin contact Prolonged or repeated contact may dry skin and cause irritation. 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). Nausea, Vomiting, Abdominal pain. Skin corrosion/irritation Not classified. Serious eye damage/eye irritation Not classified. Sensitization Not classified as a sensitizer. Carcinogenicity This product is not classified carcinogenic. 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 The current toxicological knowledge allows to not classify the product as a toxic to reproduction. Target Organ Effects (STOT) Central nervous system (CNS). STOT-single exposure Vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness. STOT - repeated exposure Causes damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure if inhaled.

Other hazards

Frequent or prolonged skin contact destroys the lipoacid cutaneous layer and may cause dermatitis.

Aspiration hazard

Not classified.

Environmental hazards

Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.

2.3 Other hazards

Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapours are heavier than air and may spread near ground level to sources of ignition . Vapors inhaled in strong concentration have a narcotic effect on the central nervous system. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.
