<br /> �- Health Hazard Data 1
<br /> onditions Aggravated by Long•Term re:Alcoholism and CNS.ladncy,skirt.a live di3 Target Orgaas:CNS, liver,
<br /> in. Primary Entry Routes:Inhalation•skirt contactlabsorp6on.Acute Effects: Vapor inhalation causes respiratory tract irritation,fatigue,
<br /> ,confusion .dizziness,headache dilated pupils,watering eyes,nervousness,insomnia,parasthesis,and vertigo progressing W narcotic coma.
<br /> y result from cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation with catecholamines loss.Liquid splashed in the eye causes eorijunctival irritation,
<br /> orneal damage and possible burns.Prolonged skin contact leads to drying and fissured dermatitis.Ingestion causes GI tract irritationand
<br /> associated with inhalation.Chronlc Effects:Symptoms include mucous membrane irritation,headache,vertigo,nausea,appetite loss and
<br /> tolerance.Repeated heavy exposure may result in encephalopathies(cerebellar ataxia and cognitive dysfunction),liver eniargement,.a id
<br /> strophy(wasting away).Symptoms usually appear at workdays end,worsen at weeks end and decrease or disappear over the weekend.
<br /> RST AID Eyes:Do not allow victim to rub or keep eyes tightly shut.Gently lift eyelids and flush immediately and continuously with flooding
<br /> ounts of water until transported to an emergency medical facility.Consult an ophthalmologist immediately. Skin:Quickly remove contaminated
<br /> clothing.Rinse with flooding amounts of water for at least 15 min.Wash exposed area with soap and water.Inhalation:Remove exposed person to
<br /> —Irtsh air and support breathing as needed.Ingestlou:Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.Contact a poison control
<br /> Irneer and unless otherwise advised,have that conscious and alert person drink 1 to 2 glasses of water to dilute.Do not induce vomiting because of
<br /> Inger of aspiration into the lungs.Gastric lavage may be indicated if large amounts are swallowed;potential toxicity needs to be weighed against
<br /> aspiration risk when deciding for or against gastric lavage.Nate to Physicians: Monitor cardiac function. If indicated,use epinephrine and other
<br /> techolarnines carefully,because of the possibility of a lowered myocardial threshold to the arrhythmogenic effects or such substances.Obtain CBC,
<br /> lectrolytes,and urinalysis.Monitor arterial blood gases.If toluene has>0.02%(200 ppm)benzene,evaluate for potential benzene toxicity.BEL
<br /> ppuric acid in urine,sample at shift end(2.5 S/g creatinine);Toluene in venous blood,sample at shift end(1.0 mg/L).
<br /> Sectibin 7. Spill,Ei-ak,-and Dts sal Procedures
<br /> �pN/I.eak:Notify safety personnel,isolate and ventilate area,deny entry,and stay upwind.Cleanup personnel protect against inhalation and skinleye
<br /> ontadt Use suvitir spray to cool-ar►d disperse vapoii'butit mii-f not prevent ignition-in closed spaces.Cellosolve,hycar absorbent materials,and
<br /> fluorocarbon water can also be used for vapor suppression/containmcnt.Take up small spill with earth,sand,vemticulite,or other absorbent,
<br /> noncombustible material.Dine for ahead of large spills for later reclamation or disposal.For water spills,(10 ppm or greater)apply activated carbon at
<br /> ::OX the spilled amount and remove trapped material with suction hoses or use mechanical dredges/lifts to rcrnove immobilized masses of pollutants
<br /> end precipitates. Toluene can undergo fluidized bed incineration at 842 to 1796'F(450 to 980'C),rotary kiln incineration at 1508 to 2912'F(820 to
<br /> 6W'C),or liquid injection incineradon at 1202 to 2912'F(650 to 1600'C).Follow applicable OSHA regulations(29 CFR 1910.120). Eeotoxlclty
<br /> Values:Blue gill,LCw=17 mg/U24 hr,shrimp(Crangonfracis coron),L.C50=4.3 ppm196 hr,fathead minnow(Pimephales promelas),LC50=36.2
<br /> ng!L.96 hr.Environmental Degradation:If released to land,toluene evaporates and undergoes car kmbial degradation.In water,toluene volatilize
<br /> std biodegrades with a half-life of days to several weeks.In.aa,toluene degrades by reaction with photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals.
<br /> Isposal:Treat contaminated water by gravity separation of solids,followed by skimming of surface.Pass through dual media filtration and carbon
<br /> absorption units(carbon ratio 1 kg to 10 kg soluble material).Return waste water from backwash to gravity separator.Contact your supplier or a
<br /> eased contractor for dcu@ d recommendations.Follow applicable Federal,state,and local regulations.

<br /> toragt Requirements:Prevent physical damage to container:.Saxe in a cool,drywell-ventilated area away from ignition sources and incom-
<br /> obles.Outside or detached storage is preferred.If stored inside,use a standard flammable liquids warehouse,room,or cabinet.To event static
<br /> sparks,electrically ground and bond all equipment used with toluene,Do not use open lights in toluene areas.Install Class 1.Groep D electrical
<br /> luipment.Check that toluene is fizz of or contains<1%benzene before use.Engineering Controls:To reduce potential health hazards,use
<br /> Jflicient dilution or local exhaust ventilation to control airborne contaminants and to maintain concentrations at the lowest practical level.Adminis-
<br /> ative Costrots:Adopt controls for confined spaces(29 CFR 1910.145)if entering areas of unknown toluene levels(boles.wells,storage tanks).
<br /> Consider preplacement and periodic medical exams of exposed workers that crruphasize,the CNS,live,kidney,ad skirt.Include hernocytometrie
<br /> -,d thrombocyte count in cases where benzene is a contaminant of toluene.Monitor air at regular intervals to ensure effective ventilation-
