11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Health Effects:
Acute -
Swallowed: Swallowing may result in irritation of the mouth
and throat. Swallowing small quantities may result in
headache, weakness, dizziness and nausea; swallowing
larger amounts may lead to unconsciousness.
Eye: Vapour and liquid can cause irritation of the eye; mild
irritation at 200 – 300 ppm and more marked at 3300 ppm.
Watering and congestion of the eyes can occur at higher
concentrations.
Skin: Contact with skin can result in mild to moderate irritation.
Will have a degreasing action on skin. Repeated or
prolonged skin contact may lead to irritant contact dermatitis.
Can be absorbed through the skin.
Inhaled: Vapour is irritant to mucous membranes and
respiratory tract. Inhalation of high concentrations can
produce central nervous system depression, which can lead
to loss of co-ordination, impaired judgement and, if exposure
is prolonged, unconsciousness.
Health Effects –
Chronic:
None known.
