SECTION 2: Hazards identification

DANGER FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. CAUSES EYE AND SKIN BURNS. HARMFUL IF INHALED. CAUSES RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION. MAY BE HARMFUL IF ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN OR IF SWALLOWED. MAY CAUSE TARGET ORGAN 1 DAMAGE, BASED ON ANIMAL DATA. ASPIRATION HAZARD IF SWALLOWED – CAN ENTER LUNGS AND CAUSE DAMAGE. DO NOT ADD NITRITES - MAY FORM SUSPECTED CANCER CAUSING NITROSAMINES. Flammable liquid. Harmful by inhalation. Corrosive to eyes and skin. Causes burns. May be harmful if absorbed through skin or if swallowed. Irritating to respiratory system. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Do not ingest. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. May cause target organ damage, based on animal data. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Wash thoroughly after handling. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage.

Potential health effects

Eye: Causes eye burns. Vapor or mist may cause irritation and severe burns. Contact with liquid is corrosive to the eyes and causes severe burns. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. Skin: Contact with liquid is corrosive and causes severe burns and ulceration. Substance is rapidly absorbed through the skin. May cause cyanosis of the extremities. May cause skin rash (in milder cases), and cold and clammy skin with cyanosis or pale color. Ingestion: May cause severe and permanent damage to the digestive tract. Aspiration hazard. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause perforation of the digestive tract. Ingestion of large amounts may cause CNS depression. May cause systemic effects. Inhalation: Irritation may lead to chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. May cause liver and kidney 2 damage. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. May cause systemic effects. May cause burning sensation in the chest. Chronic: Chronic inhalation and ingestion may cause effects similar to those of acute inhalation and ingestion.
