Health Hazards Information - Recommended Personal Protective Equipment: Protective gloves;
goggles or face shield; Symptom Following Exposure: INHALATION: causes headache and slight
giddiness. INGESTION: causes MU=, vomiting, and cramping; depression of central nervous system
ranging from mild headache to anesthesia, coma, and death, pulmonary irritation secondary to
exhalation of solvent; signs of kidney and liver damage may be delayed. ASPIRATION: causes severe
lung irritation with coughing, gagging, dyspnea, substernal distress, and rapidly developing pulmonary
edema; later, signs of bronchopneumonia and pneumonitis; acute onset of central nervous system
excitement followed by depression; General Treament for Exposure: INGESTION do NOT induce
vomiting; seek medical attention. ASPIRATION: enforce bed rest; administer oxygen; EYES: wash
with copious quantity of water. SKIN: remove solvent by wiping and wash with soap and water;

Limits: Data not available; Toxicity by Ingestion: Grade 1; LD,, 5-15 g/kg; Late Toxicity: Data not
available; Vapor (Gas) Im'tant Characteristics: Slight smarting of eyes or respiratory system if present
in high concentrations. The effects is temporary; Liquid or Solid Im*tant Characteristics: Minimum
hazard. If spilled on clothing and allowed to remain, may cause smarting and reddening of skin; Odor
i%reshold Data not available.
