Signs And Symptoms of Exposure:
Inhalation of fumes resulting from thermal degradation (over 600° F) may cause "fume fever" which has symptoms
similar to metal fume fever or influenza (chills, fever, tightness of the chest).
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated By Exposure:
N/A
Emergency And First Aid Procedures:
The symptoms of "Fume Fever" mentioned above do not occur until several hours after exposure and may pass
within 36 to 48 hours, even in the absence of treatment.
