Health Hazards Information - Recommended Personal Protective Equipment: Air pack or organic
canister, rubber gloves, goggles; Symptoms Following Exposure: Vapor is irritant to the mucous
membrane of the eye and respiratory tract. Inhalation can cause dizziness, nausea, some anesthesia.
Very high concentration have a narcotic effect. The liquid is not highly irritating to the skin but can
cause dermatitis; General Treatment for Exposure: INHALATION remove victim to fresh air. Give
artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. EYES OR SKIN: wash affected skin areas with water;
flush eyes with water and get medical care if discomfort persists; Toxicity by Inhalation (Threshold
Limit Value) : 50 ppm; Short-Tern Exposure Limits: 150 ppm for 30 min. ; Toxicity by Ingestion: Grade
2; LD, 0.5 to 5 glkg (rat); Late Toxicity: Data not available; Vqor (Gas) Irritant Characteristics:
Vapors cause moderate irritation such that personnel will find high concentrations unpleasant. The
effect is temporary; Liquid or Solid Irritant Characteristics: Minimum hazard. If spilled on clothing
and allowed to remain, may cause smarting and reddening of the skin; Odor Threshold: Data not
available.
