vomiting, abdominal pain, fatigue, muscular weakness. Aspiration into the lungs can cause
CNS (central nervous system) and subsequent aspiration into the lungs can cause
pulmonary edema and chemical pneumonia depression. Chronic overexposure in high
concentrations may produce CNS depression.
Ingestion: Irritation of the mouth, esophagus, and stomach can develop following
ingestion. Symptoms include burning of the mouth, sore throat, vomiting, nausea,
dizziness, loss of consciousness. Due to its light viscosity, there is danger of aspiration into
the lungs during vomiting. Aspiration can result in severe lung damage or death.
Skin Contact: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause moderate to severe irritation
including itching and redness of the skin, defatting, and/or dermatitis. This product can also
be absorbed through the skin and produce CNS symptoms. Single prolonged exposure is
not likely to result in the product being absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts.
Signs And Symptoms Of Exposure: Eye irritation, respiratory irritation, drying and
cracking of skin, dizziness, fatigue, headache, unconsciousness or asphyxiation. Chronic
effects of ingestion and subsequent aspiration into the lungs can cause pneumatocele
(lung cavity) formation and chronic lung dysfunction. Repeated breathing of vapors can
cause effects to liver and kidneys.
Exposure to solvent vapor concentrations from the component solvents in excess of the
stated occupational exposure limits may result in adverse health effects such as mucous
membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys, liver and
central nervous system. Symptoms include headache, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, muscular
weakness, drowsiness and in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Repeated or prolonged contact with the preparation may cause removal of natural fat from
the skin resulting in dryness, irritation and possible non-allergic contact dermatitis. Solvents
may also be absorbed through the skin. Splashes of liquid in the eyes may cause irritation
and soreness with possible reversible damage. See section 2 for further details.
5. Fire-fighting measures
5.1. Extinguishing media
Use dry chemicals, carbon dioxide foam, water fog, or inert gas (nitrogen) for small fires. For large fires use foam,
water fog, or water spray. Water fog and spray are effective in cooling containers and adjacent structures but might
cause frothing and/or not achieve extinguishment. A water jet may be used to cool the container’s external walls to
prevent pressure build-
up, auto ignition, or explosion. NEVER use a water jet directly on the fire. Product will float and
can be re-ignited on surface of water.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous decomposition: High temperatures and fires may produce such toxic substances as carbon monoxide and
carbon dioxide.
Keep away from heat / sparks / open flames / hot surfaces - No smoking.
Keep cool.
Ground / bond container and receiving equipment.
Use explosion-proof electrical / ventilating / light / equipment.
Use only non-sparking tools.
