Ethylene glycol (EG) intoxication may initially produce behavioral changes,
drowsiness, vomiting, diarrhea, thirst, and convulsions. EG is nephrotoxic
(kidney damaging). End stages of poisoning may include renal damage or
failure with acidosis. Supportive measures, supplemented with hemodialysis if
indicated, may limit the progression and severity of toxic effects.
For ethylene glycol poisoning intravenous ethanol is a recognized antidotal
treatment; other antidotal treatments also exist for EG poisoning.
Aspiration of this product during induced emesis may result in severe lung
injury. If evacuation of stomach is necessary, use method least likely to cause
aspiration - such as gastric lavage after endotracheal intubation. Contact a
poison center for additional treatment information.

Other:
118°C (244°F) typical by ASTM D 92 (COC) for ethylene glycol. If material
contains water from addition - flash will not occur until water has boiled off.
Not determined.
Use water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam, all purpose AFFF or carbon
dioxide to extinguish fire.
Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. If leak or spill has not ignited,
ventilate area and use water spray to disperse gas or vapor and to protect
personnel attempting to stop a leak.
Use water spray to cool adjacent structures and to protect personnel. Shut off
source of flow if possible (safely). Stay away from storage tank ends.
Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any
discoloration of storage tank due to fire.
Fire fighters must wear MSHA/NIOSH approved positive pressure breathing
apparatus (SCBA) with full face mask and full protective equipment.
Dense smoke may be generated while burning. Toxic fumes, gases or vapors
may evolve on burning. Heavy flammable vapors may settle along ground level
and low spots to create an invisible fire hazard. The vapors may extend to
sources of ignition and flash back.
Fires involving this product may release COx, NOx, SOx, reactive hydrocarbons
and irritating vapors.
Not determined.
Not determined. Care should always be exercised in dust/mist areas.
