SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATIO
N
Likely Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, Eye and Skin Contact
Acute symptoms and effects:
Inhalation: Severe overexposure may result in nausea, dizziness, headache. Can cause drowsiness, irritation of eyes and nasal passages.
Eye Contact: Vapours slightly uncomfortable. Overexposure may result in severe eye injury with corneal or conjunctival inflammation on contact with the liquid.
Skin Contact: Liquid contact may remove natural skin oils resulting in skin irritation. Dermatitis may occur with prolonged contact.
Ingestion: May cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and mental sluggishness.
Chronic (long-term) effects: None known to humans
