Can <br />react violently with oxidizing agents. Firefighters <br />should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and <br />' <br />full protective clothing. <br />' <br />SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION <br />The primary routes of entry are by: Inhalation, Skin contact <br />' <br />EFFECTS OF <br />OVEREXPOSURE: <br />Eye: <br />Moderately irritating to the eyes. <br />Skin: <br />Prolonged and repeated liquid contact can cause defatting and drying of the <br />skin resulting in skin irritation and dermatitis. <br />' <br />Inhalation: <br />This product may cause irritation to the nose, throat, and respiratory tract. <br />Prolonged inhalation of elevated concentrations may result in liver and kidney <br />damage. Overexposure to vapors can cause bronchopneumonia, with fatal <br />pulmonary edema at high concentrations. Repeated exposure to high level <br />benzene concentrations may produce injury of the blood -forming tissues <br />causing blood abnormalities and possibly leukemia. <br />Ingestion: <br />This product may be harmful or fatal if swallowed. Ingestion may result in <br />vomiting; aspiration (breathing) of vomitus into the lungs must be avoided as <br />even small quantities may result in pneumonitis. <br />' <br />EMERGENCY <br />AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: <br />' Eye Contact: Flush with water for 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. Get medical <br />attention. <br />Skin Contact: Flush with water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Follow by <br />washing with soap and water. Do not reuse clothing or shoes until cleaned. <br />If irritation persists, get medical help. <br />' Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air and provide oxygen if breathing is difficult. Rescue <br />breathing should be performed if victim has stopped breathing. Get medical <br />attention. <br />Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below <br />hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs. Get medical attention. <br />CARCINOGENICITY: (Due to benzene content) <br />Federal OSHA: Yes NTP: Yes IARC: YES Cal/OSHA: Yes <br />I <br />' cca09-23-92/8787a.51/cp31 A-9 <br />
