The quantity swallowed incidental to industrial handling are not likley to cause injury, but ingestion of larger quantities may cause injury. If liquid is aspirated, ie enters the lung, lung damage, or even death due to chemical pneumonia, may be caused. (Chemical pneumonia is a condition caused by petroleum or petroleum-like solvents. May cause moderate eye irritation. May cause corneal injury. Vapours may irritate eyes. Vapours may cause lacrymation (tears). Repeated or prolonged skin contact may lead to irritation. Repeated contact will cause drying and flaking of the skin. A single exposure is not likely to result in the absorption of harmful amounts through the skin. Excess vapour concentrations are readily attainable and could be hazardous on a single exposure. Excessive exposure may irritate the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. Signs and symptoms of excessive exposure are central nervous system effects such as headache, dizziness, drowsiness. Anaesthetic or narcotic effects are also symptoms of excessive exposure. Nausea and gastrointestinal effects may be experienced.continued inhalation may result in unconsciousness and death. No relevant data is available for this product. However it is anticipated that prolonged or repeated skin contact may lead to dermatitic effects and prolonged (hours) and excessive exposure may lead to serious adverse effects, even death. Effects of long-term or repeated exposure to toluene: The liquid defats the skin. The substance may have effects on the central nervous system and other organs. Exposure to the substance may enhance hearing damage caused by exposure to noise. Animal tests show that this substance possibly causes toxicity to human reproduction or development. The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion. Toxicological data available for the component solvents follows: TOLUENE; Signs and symptoms of excessive exposure may be central nervous system effects. Excessive exposure may cause neurologic signs and symptoms, irritation of the upper respiratory tract. Note: Intentional misuse by deliberate inhalation may cause nervous system damage, liver and kidney effects, hearing loss and death. Animal tests show that this substance possibly causes toxicity to human reproduction or development. METHYL ETHYL KETONE; Repeated excessive exposure to high concentrations may cause liver effects. Animal tests show that this substance possibly causes toxic effects upon human reproduction. Do NOT induce vomiting. Call a doctor and/or transport to an emergency facility immediately. Hold eyes open, wash with flowing water for 1 minutes. Consult a doctor. Wash affected areas with copious quantities of water. Remove to fresh air if effects occur. If not breathing commence resuscitation (eg. mouth-to-mouth). If breathing difficult, oxygen can be given by trained person. Call a doctor. If poisoning occurs contact a doctor or a Poisons Information Centre. Print Date: 26/06/2012

Flammability Fire Hazards Because rapid absorption of toluene may occur through the lungs if aspirated and cause systemic effects, the decision of whether to induce vomiting should be made by the attending physician. If lavage is performed, consider lavage with protected airway and administration of activated charcoal. The danger of aspiration must be weighed against the toxicity of the other components. Potential for cardiac sensitisation, particularly in abuse situations. Hypoxia or negative inotropes may enhance these effects. Consider oxygen therapy. Repeated excessive exposure to high concentrations of methyl isobutyl ketone, a component of this product, may aggravate pre-existing liver disease. The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion. None established for this mixture. Workplace Exposure Standards (W.E.S.) have been published by Worksafe Australia in May 199 for each solvent. W.E.S. T.W.A. S.T.E.L. Toluene; 100 ppm, 10 ppm Methyl ethyl ketone; 10 ppm, 300 ppm Methyl isobutyl ketone; 0 ppm, 7 ppm n-butanol; 0 ppm, Peak **, Skin # n-butyl acetate; 10 ppm, 200 ppm ** Peak - peak limitation; a ceiling concentration which should not be exceeded. # Skin; absorption through the skin may be a significant source of exposure. T.W.A. - Time-weighted average exposure concentration. S.T.E.L. - Short term exposure limit. Control atmospheric concentrations below exposure guidelines. Use with good general ventilation or with local exhaust ventilation for some operations. Odour: Methyl isobutyl ketone has a distinctive odour and a odour threshold of less than 1 ppm. Methyl ethyl ketone has an odour threshold of 2 ppm. However in a mixture of solvents the specific odour of each chemical is not distinct and should not be used as a means of assessing exposure potential. SAFE HANDLING INFORMATION Storage and Transport Storage and Transport Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Control atmospheric concentrations below exposure guidelines. If respiratory protection is required use an approved air-purifying (organic vapour) respirator. Avoid contact with skin. Wear clean body-covering clothing. If prolonged or repeated exposure is anticipated wear impervious gloves. Remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly before re-use. Avoid contact with eyes. Wear safety glasses. If potential for eye contact likely wear chemical goggles. If vapour exposure causes discomfort wear full-face respirator. Extremely flammable. Keep away from heat,sparks or naked flames. Flameproof equipment necessary in area where this chemical is being used. Nearby equipment must be earthed. May form explosive mixtures with air. Store in well ventilated area. Store away from sources of heat or ignition. Store away from oxidizing agents. Not to be loaded with oxidizing agents (class ). Do not store in pits or basements where vapours may become entrapped.
