health hazards acute and chronic: potential health effects: eye contact:
severely irritating. If not removed promptly, will injure eye
tissue, which may result in permanent damage. Skin contact:
frequent/prolonged contact may irritate and cause dermatitis. Low
order of toxicity. Inhalation: vapor concentrations above exposure
levels are irritating to eyes and respiratory tract, may cause
headaches and dizziness, are anesthetic and may have other central
nervous system effects. Ingestion: small amounts of the liquid
aspirated into the respiratory system during ingestion, or from
vomiting, may cause pulmonary edema. Chronic effe cts: no
neurotoxic effects.
effects of overexposure: inhalation: may cause headaches and dizziness,
are anesthetic.
First aid: eye contact: immediately flush eyes with large amount of
water for at least 15 minutes. Get prompt medical attention. Skin
contact: immediately flush with large amount of water; use soap if
available . Remove contaminated clothing, including shoes, after
flushing has begun. Inhalation: using proper respiratory
protection, immediately remove the affected victim from exposure.
administer artificial respiration if breathing is stopped. Keep at
rest. Call for prompt medical attention. Ingestion: if swallowed,
do not induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.
