SECTION VI-REACTIVITY DATA
Reactivity: Stable
Conditions to avoid: Prevent vapor accumulation. Avoid heat and flames.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Strong oxidizers.
Hazardous Decomposition (Byproducts): Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Hazardous Polymerization: Should not occur.
SECTION VII-HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, Ingestion, eyes, and Skin.
Health Hazards:
Acute: May cause eye, skin, gastrointestinal, and lung irritation. May cause central nervous system
depression.
Chronic: Prolonged and repeated exposures to high concentrations may cause hearing loss. May cause
anemia, decreased blood cell count, and bone marrow hypoplasia. Liver and kidney damage may occur.
Exposure to toluene may affect the developing fetus.
Skin Contact: May cause irritation and redness. Prolonged or repeated exposure can cause defatting and drying of
the skin, which may result in a burning sensation and a dried, cracked appearance.
Eye Contact: May cause redness, tearing, and irritation of the eyes. Direct contact may cause permanent eye
damage.
Inhalation: May cause headache, nausea, dizziness, and loss of coordination. Continued inhalation may result in
unconsciousness and death.
Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. Aspiration of the material into the lungs can cause chemical
pneumonitis, which can be fatal.
Carcinogen: Contains trace amounts of Naphthalene (0.39-0.79 by wt.), which has been shown by the NTP to be
carcinogenic.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: Persons with pre-existing skin, eye, or lung disorders may be more
susceptible to the effects of the substance.

SECTION IX-EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Skin: Clean material from skin with acetone, then wash with soap and water followed by moisturizer.
Eyes: Flush with a gentle but large stream of clean water for 15 minutes, lifting the lower and upper eyelids
occasionally. Call a physician if irritation persists.
Inhalation: Move to fresh air and provide oxygen if breathing is difficult. Seek medical attention.
Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. If vomiting occurs spontaneously,
keep head below hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs. Get medical attention immediately.
