POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
EYE:
This substance is slightly irritating to the eyes and could cause
prolonged (days) impairment of your vision. The degree of the injury will
depend on the amount of material that gets into the eye and the speed and
thoroughness of the first aid treatment. Eye contact with the vapors,
fumes, or spray mist from this substance could also cause similar signs
and symptoms. This hazard evaluation is based on the data from similar
materials.
SKIN:
Prolonged or frequently repeated contact may cause the skin to become
cracked or dry from the defatting action of this material.
INGESTION:
This substance is slightly toxic to internal organs if swallowed. The
degree of injury will depend on the amount absorbed from the gut. The
target organ(s) is the nervous system. Because of the low viscosity of
this substance, it can directly enter the lungs if it is swallowed (this
is called aspiration). This can occur during the act of swallowing or
when vomiting the substance. Once in the lungs, the substance is very
difficult to remove and can cause severe injury to the lungs and death.
This hazard evaluation is based on data from similar materials.
INHALATION:
This substance is slightly toxic to internal organs if inhaled. The
degree of injury will depend on the airborne concentration and duration of
exposure. The target organ(s) is the nervous system. Inhalation of
gasoline vapor at airborne concentrations exceeding 1000 ppm may cause
signs and symptoms of central nervous system effects such as headache,
dizziness, loss of appetite, weakness and loss of coordination. Vapor
concentrations in excess of 5000 ppm may cause loss of consciousness, coma
and death. Brief exposures to high vapor concentrations may also cause
pulmonary edema and bronchitis. Intentional exposures to excessively high
concentrations (e.g., when used as a drug of abuse) have been reported to
result in clinical manifestations that may include convulsions, delirium,
and hallucinations. These manifestations are not known to occur following
accidental inhalation of gasoline vapor during normal operations. This
hazard evaluation is based on data from similar materials.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE:
EYE: May include pain, tears, swelling, redness, and blurred vision.
INGESTION: May include one or more of the following: headache,
dizziness, loss of appetite, weakness and loss of coordination.
______________________________________________________________________
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
______________________________________________________________________
EYE:
Flush eyes immediately with fresh water for at least 15 minutes while
holding the eyelids open. Remove contact lenses if worn. No additional
first aid should be necessary. However, if irritation persists, see a
doctor.
SKIN:
No first aid procedures are required. As a precaution, wash skin
thoroughly with soap and water. Remove and wash contaminated clothing.
INGESTION:
If swallowed, give water or milk to drink and telephone for medical
advice. DO NOT make person vomit unless directed to do so by medical
personnel. If medical advice cannot be obtained, then take the person and
product container to the nearest medical emergency treatment center or
hospital.
INHALATION:
If respiratory irritation or any signs or symptoms as described in this
document occur, move the person to fresh air. If any of these effects
continue, see a doctor.
NOTE TO PHYSICIANS:
Ingestion of this product or subsequent vomiting can result in aspiration
of light hydrocarbon liquid which can cause pneumonitis.

FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
This product presents an extreme fire hazard. Liquid very quickly
evaporates, even at low temperatures, and forms vapor (fumes) which can
catch fire and burn with explosive violence. Invisible vapor spreads
easily and can be set on fire by many sources such as pilot lights,
welding equipment, and electrical motors and switches.
For fires involving this material, do not enter any enclosed or confined
fire space without proper protective equipment. This may include
self-contained breathing apparatus to protect against the hazardous
effects of normal products of combustion or oxygen deficiency. Read the
entire document.
COMBUSTION PRODUCTS:
Normal combustion forms carbon dioxide and water vapor; incomplete
combustion can produce carbon monoxide.

ADDITIONAL TOXICOLOGY INFORMATION:
Lifetime inhalation of whole gasoline vapor has caused increased liver
tumors in female mice. The mechanism of this response is still being
investigated but it is thought to be an epigenetic process unique to the
female mouse. Inhalation exposure to whole gasoline vapor also caused
kidney damage and eventually kidney cancer in male rats. No other animal
model studied has shown these adverse kidney effects and there is no
physiological reason to believe that they would occur in man.
The data above is obtained from studies sponsored by the American
Petroleum Institute (API).
This product contains benzene. The OSHA Benzene Standard (29 CFR
1910.1028) contains detailed requirements for training, exposure
monitoring, respiratory protection and medical surveillance triggered by
the exposure level. Refer to the OSHA Standard before using this product.
Repeated or prolonged breathing of benzene vapors has been associated with
the development of chromosomal damage in experimental animals and various
blood diseases in humans ranging from aplastic anemia to leukemia (a form
of cancer). All of these diseases can be fatal. No birth defects have
been shown to occur in pregnant laboratory animals exposed to doses not
toxic to the mother. However, some evidence of fetal toxicity such as
delayed physical development has been seen at such levels. The available
information on the effects of benzene on human pregnancies is inadequate
but it has been established that benzene can cross the human placenta.
This product contains toluene. Toluene has been reported to decrease
immunological responses in test animals. It has also been reported that
when young rats were exposed to 1000 ppm toluene for 14 hours daily, for
two weeks, irreversible hearing loss was detected. The same daily exposure
to 700 ppm for as long as 16 weeks was without effect. Since the level
necessary to produce hearing loss is greater than 7 times the ACGIH
TLV-TWA for toluene, worker exposures at or below 100 ppm is not expected
to cause any adverse effects. There are also reports that chronic solvent
abusers (glue sniffers, solvent huffers) who deliberately inhale high
concentrations (several thousand ppm) of toluene for prolonged periods (up
to ten hours/day) have suffered liver, kidney and brain damage. Toluene
may also cause mental and/or growth retardation in the children of female
solvent abusers who directly inhale toluene when they are pregnant.
Toluene caused growth retardation in rats when administered at doses that
were toxic to the mothers (1500 ppm). Concentrations of up to 5000 ppm
did not cause birth defects. There were no effects in the offspring at
doses that did not intoxicate the pregnant rats. The exposure level at
which no effects were seen (No Observed Effect Level, NOEL) is 750 ppm. We
recommend that the precautions outlined in this MSDS be followed to keep
toluene concentrations below the recommended exposure standards.
This product contains xylene, a chemical that has been reported to cause
developmental toxicity in rats and mice exposed by inhalation during
pregnancy. The effects noted consisted of delayed development and minor
skeletal variations; additionally, when pregnant mice were exposed by
ingestion to a level that killed nearly one-third of the test group,
lethality (resorptions) and malformations (primarily cleft palate)
occurred. Malformations have not been reported following inhalation
exposure. Because of the very high levels of exposure used in these
studies, we do not believe that their results imply an increased risk of
reproductive toxicity to workers exposed to xylene levels at or below the
exposure standard.
Xylene has given negative results in several mutagen testing assays
including the Ames assay. In a cancer study sponsored by the National
Toxicology Program (NTP), technical grade xylene gave no evidence of
carcinogenicity in rats or mice dosed daily for two years.
Mixed xylenes have been shown to cause probable hearing loss in rats
exposed to 800 ppm in the air for 14 hours per day for six weeks.
Although no information is available for lower concentrations, other
chemicals that cause hearing loss in rats at relatively high
concentrations do not cause hearing loss at low concentrations. Men
exposed to 135 to 400 ppm of m-xylene for over 3 hours per day for a total
of 4 days showed no hearing loss. Worker exposure to xylenes at the
permissible exposure limit (100 ppm, time-weighted average) is not
expected to cause hearing loss.
This product contains n-hexane. Prolonged or repeated skin contact or
breathing of vapors may cause nerve damage characterized by progressive
weakness and numbness in the arms and legs. Recovery ranges from no
recovery to complete recovery depending upon the severity of the nerve
damage.
