11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Health Hazard
Summary
Low toxicity. Use safe work practices to avoid eye or skin contact and inhalation. Chronic exposure may result in
cirrhosis
of the liver. Over exposure may result in central nervous system (CNS) depression, with nausea
,
dizziness
and unconsciousness at high levels. Ammonia vapour may result in severe eye and respiratory trac
t
irritation,
however due to the low content, such effects are only anticipated in poorly ventilated areas. When
used
in small quantities, the potential for over exposure is reduced.
Eye Low to moderate irritant. Contact may result in irritation, lacrimation, pain and redness.
Inhalation
Irritant. Over exposure may result in irritation of the nose and throat, coughing and headache. High level
exposure
may result in nausea, dizziness and drowsiness.
Skin
Low irritant. Prolonged or repeated contact may result in mild irritation, rash and dermatitis.
Ingestion
Low toxicity. Ingestion may result in gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea,
headache, dizziness and drowsiness with large quantities. Chronic exposure may result in liver damage.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Environment
If spilled on soil, ethanol will either evaporate or leach into the ground due to the relatively high vapour pressur
e
and low adsorption in soil. It will biodegrade, probably to acetic acid and formaldehyde. Ethanol will volatilise
from
water and biodegrade, and is not expected to bioconcentrate. It will photodegrade in air with a half-life rangin
g
from hours (polluted air) to days (clean air).
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Waste Disposal
Disposal requirements are dependent on the hazard classification of the waste produced, as defined under th
e
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) 40 CFR 261. The disposal of this material must be conducte
