<br /> mart'of Risks Prolonged skin contact or excessive inhalation of benzene vapor may cause headache,weakness,appetite loss,and faugue-
<br /> most�rnportant health hazards are cancer(leukarna)and bone marrow damage with injury to blood-forming ussue from chrontc low-level
<br /> sure Higher level exposures may irritate the respiratory tract and cause central nervous system(CNS)depression
<br /> Medical Conditions Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure:Exposure may worsen ubnents of the heart,lungs,liver,kidneys,blood,and CNS
<br /> Target Oee�aans.Blood,central nervous system.bone marrow,eyes,upper respiratory tract,and skin
<br /> n,
<br /> Primary>rntry Routes:Inhalatioskirl contact.
<br /> Acute ffects:Symptoms of acute overexposure include irritation of the eyes,nose,and respiratory tract,breathlessness,euphoria.nausea.
<br /> drowsiness,headache,dizziness,and intoxication Severe exposure may lead to convulsions and unconsciousness Simi contact may cause a
<br /> drying rash(dermatitis)
<br /> Chronic Effects.Long-term chronic exposure may result in many blood disorders ranging from aplastic anerrna(an inability to form blood cells)
<br /> to leukemia.
<br /> FIRST AID
<br /> Eyes:Gently lift the eyelids and flush unmediawly and continuously with flooding amounts of water until transported to an emergency medical
<br /> facility Consult a physicnan unmednately
<br /> Skin-Quickly remove contaminated clothing Immediately rinse with flooding amounts of water for at least 15 mut For reddened or blistered
<br /> stun,consult a physwan.Wash affected area with soap and water
<br /> Inhalation:Remove exposed person to fresh err Emergency personnel should protect against inhalation exposure Provide CPR to support
<br /> breathing or circulation as necessary Keep awake and transport to a medical facthty
<br /> Ingestion:Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.if ingested,do not induce vomiting since aspiration may be
<br /> fatal Call a physician unmediately
<br /> After first aid,get appropriate fn-plant,paramedic,or community medical support.
<br /> Physician's Note:Evaluate chronic exposure with a CBC,peripheral smear,and reticulocyte count for signs of myelotoxicity Follow up any
<br /> early indicators of leukemia atilt a bone marrow biopsy Urinary phenol conjugates may be used for biological monitoring of recant exposure
<br /> Acute management is primarily supportive for CNS depression.
<br /> Stkum 7.0 4 114 Lesko slid Disposal Procedures
<br /> Spill/Leak:Design and practice a benzene spill control and countermeasure plan(SCOP) Notify safety personnel,evacuate all unnecessary
<br /> personnel,eliminate all heat and ignition sources.and provide adequate ventilation.Cleanup personnel should protect against vapor inhalation.eye 1
<br /> contact,and skin absorption Absorb as much benzene as possible with an meet.noncombustible material For large spills.dike far ahead of spill
<br /> and contain liquid.Use nonsparkmg tools to piece waste liquid or absorbent into closable containers for disposal Keep waste out of confined
<br /> spaces such as sewers,watersheds,and waterways because of explosion danger Follow applicable OSHA regulations(29 CFR 1910 120)
<br /> Disposal:Contact your supplier or a licensed contractor for detailed recommendations Follow applicable Federal,state.and local regulations.

<br /> Goggles:Wear protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles,per OSHA eye-and face-protection regulations(29 CFR 1910 133)
<br /> Respirator:Seek professional advice pnor to respirator selection and use Follow OSHA respirator regulauons(29 CFR 1910 134)and.if noces-
<br /> sary,wear a NIOSH-MVroved respirator For emergency or nonroutine opemuons(clemurig spills,reactor vessels,or storage tanks),wear an
<br /> SCBA Warning+Air purifying respirators do riot protect workers in oxygen-deficiew awsospheres'
<br /> Other:Wear impervious gloves.boots,aprons,and gauntlets to prevent skm contact.
<br /> Ventilation:Provide general and local explosion-proof ventilation systems to maintain saborne concentrations at least below the OSHA PELs
<br /> (Sec.2) Local exhaust ventilation is preferred since it prevents contammant dispersion into the work area by controlling it at its source t1°
<br /> Safety Stations:Make available in the work area emergency eyewash stations,safetylquick-drench showem and washing facilities.
<br /> Contaminated Equipment:Never wear contact lenses in the work area.soft lenses may absorb,and all lenses concentrate,irritants Remove this
<br /> material from your shoes and equipment.Launder contaminated clothing before wearing
