| 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
INHALATION:
REMOVE THE VICTIM TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED ADMINISTER
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, HAVE MEDICAL PERSONNEL
ADMINISTER OXYGEN. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
SKIN CONTACT:
REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. IMMEDIATELY WASH CONTACTED AREA THOROUGHLY
WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
EYE CONTACT:
IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION PERSISTS.
INGESTION:
SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. IMMEDIATELY CALL LOCAL POISON CONTROL
CENTER OR GO TO AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO OR
INDUCE VOMITING IN AN UNCONSCIOUS OR DROWSY PERSON.
MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS:
FLAMMABLE LIQUID! POISONOUS IF SWALLOWED. INGESTION MAY CAUSE BLINDNESS,
ABDOMINAL DISCOMFORT OR PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS,
MALAISE, BLURRING OF VISION, IRRITABILITY, BACK PAIN, DECREASE IN URINE
OUTPUT, KIDNEY FAILURE, AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS. METHYL ALCOHOL
MAY BE ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN IN HARMFUL AMOUNTS. INHALATION MAY CAUSE
HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS, NAUSEA, VISUAL IMPAIRMENT, NARCOSIS AND
UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
INDICATION OF IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT, IF NEEDED:
SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION IF SWALLOWED. IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION
MAY BE REQUIRED FOR PROLONGED INHALATION AND SKIN EXPOSURES.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN:
THE COMBINATION OF VISUAL DISTURBANCES, METABOLIC ACIDOSIS AND AN OSMOL GAP
IS EVIDENCE OF METHANOL POISONING. ETHANOL IS ANTIDOTAL AND ITS EARLY
ADMINISTRATION MAY BLOCK THE FORMATION OF TOXIC METABOLITES OF METHANOL.
THE PRINCIPAL TOXIC EFFECT OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL, WHEN SWALLOWED, ARE KIDNEY
DAMAGE AND METABOLIC ACIDOSIS. THE COMBINATION OF METABOLIC ACIDOSIS, AN
OSMOL GAP AND OXALATE CRYSTALS IN THE URINE IS EVIDENCE OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL
POISONING. ETHANOL IS ANTIDOTAL AND ITS EARLY ADMINISTRATION MAY BLOCK THE
FORMATION OF NEPHROTOXIC METABOLITES OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL IN THE LIVER. THE
OBJECTIVE IS TO RAPIDLY ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN A BLOOD ETHANOL LEVEL OF
APPROXIMATELY 100 MG/DL BY GIVING A LOADING DOSE OF ETHANOL FOLLOWED BY A
MAINTENANCE DOSE. INTRAVENOUS ADMINISTRATION OF ETHANOL IS THE PREFERRED
ROUTE. ETHANOL BLOOD LEVELS SHOULD BE CHECKED FREQUENTLY. HEMODIALYSIS MAY
BE REQUIRED.
4-METHYL PYRAZOLE (FOMEPIZOLE(R)), A POTENT INHIBITOR OF ALCOHOL
DEHYDROGENASE, HAS BEEN USED THERAPEUTICALLY TO DECREASE THE METABOLIC
CONSEQUENCES OF METHANOL AND ETHYLENE GLYCOL POISONING. THIS ANTIDOTE IS
NOW APPROVED BY THE F.D.A. AND IN MANY CASES HAS REPLACED ETHANOL IN THE
TREATMENT OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL POISONING. PULMONARY EDEMA WITH HYPOXIA HAS
BEEN DESCRIBED IN A NUMBER OF PATIENTS FOLLOWING POISONING WITH ETHYLENE
GLYCOL. RESPIRATORY SUPPORT WITH MECHANICAL VENTILATION MAY BE REQUIRED.
THERE MAY BE CRANIAL NERVE INVOLVEMENT IN THE LATE STAGES OF TOXICITY FROM
SWALLOWED ETHYLENE GLYCOL. IN PARTICULAR, EFFECTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED
INVOLVING THE SEVENTH, EIGHTH AND NINTH CRANIAL NERVES, PRESENTING WITH
BILATERAL FACIAL PARALYSIS, DIMINISHED HEARING AND DYSPHAGIA.
AS THERE ARE COMPLICATED AND SERIOUS OVERDOSES, WE RECOMMEND YOU CONSULT
WITH THE TOXICOLOGISTS AT YOUR POISON CONTROL CENTER.
| 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES | |
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
USE WATER FOG, CARBON DIOXIDE, ALCOHOL FOAM OR DRY CHEMICAL. COOL FIRE
EXPOSED CONTAINERS WITH WATER.
SPECIFIC HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE CHEMICAL:
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE LIQUID. METHANOL-WATER MIXTURES WILL BURN UNLESS VERY
DILUTE. FLAME IS INVISIBLE IN DAYLIGHT. VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY
FLOW ALONG SURFACES TO DISTANT IGNITION SOURCES AND FLASHBACK. BURNING MAY
PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE AND CARBON DIOXIDE, ALDEHYDES, KETONES, ORGANIC
ACIDS AND HYDROCARBON FRAGMENTS.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND PRECAUTIONS FOR FIRE FIGHTERS:
FIREFIGHTERS SHOULD WEAR POSITIVE PRESSURE SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS AND FULL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING FOR FIRES IN AREAS WHERE CHEMICALS
ARE USED OR STORED.
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
ELIMINATE ALL IGNITION SOURCES. VENTILATE AREA. WEAR APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE
CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT (SEE SECTION 8).
METHODS AND MATERIALS FOR CONTAINMENT/CLEANUP:
COLLECT WITH ABSORBENT MATERIAL AND PLACE IN A CONTAINER SUITABLE FOR
FLAMMABLE WASTE.
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING:
FLAMMABLE LIQUID! MAY BE FATAL OR CAUSE BLINDNESS IF SWALLOWED! DO NOT
SWALLOW. DO NOT EAT, DRINK OR SMOKE WHEN USING THIS PRODUCT. DO NOT BREATHE
MISTS OR VAPORS. USE ONLY OUTDOORS OR IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA. AVOID EYE
AND SKIN CONTACT. WASH EXPOSED SKIN THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. WEAR
APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT (SEE SECTION 8). TAKE OFF
IMMEDIATELY ALL CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. WASH CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE
REUSE.
CONDITIONS FOR SAFE STORAGE, INCLUDING ANY INCOMPATIBILITIES:
KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS, OPEN FLAMES AND ALL OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION.
KEEP CONTAINER TIGHTLY CLOSED. STORE LOCKED UP IN A COOL, WELL VENTILATED
AREA AWAY FROM OXIDIZERS.
NFPA CLASSIFICATION IB.

| 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION | |
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
ACUTE HAZARDS:
INHALATION:
MAY CAUSE IRRITATION OF THE NOSE AND THROAT. HIGH VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS MAY
PRODUCE NAUSEA, VOMITING, HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS, TINGLING,
NUMBNESS AND SHOOTING PAINS IN THE HANDS AND FOREARMS, AND VISUAL
DISTURBANCES.
SKIN CONTACT:
PROLONGED CONTACT WITH THE SKIN MAY CAUSE REDNESS AND DEFATTING OF THE SKIN
AND ABSORPTION OF HARMFUL AMOUNTS OF METHANOL.
EYE CONTACT:
LIQUID, VAPORS OR MIST MAY CAUSE DISCOMFORT IN THE EYE WITH PERSISTENT
CONJUNCTIVITIS, SEEN AS SLIGHT EXCESS REDNESS OR CONJUNCTIVA. SERIOUS
CORNEAL INJURY IS NOT ANTICIPATED.
INGESTION:
CONTAINS METHANOL AND ETHYLENE GLYCOL. MAY CAUSE ABDOMINAL DISCOMFORT OR
PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS, HEADACHE, MALAISE, BLURRING
OF VISION, IRRITABILITY, BACK PAIN, DECREASE IN URINE OUTPUT, KIDNEY
FAILURE, AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS, INCLUDING IRREGULAR EYE
MOVEMENTS, CONVULSIONS AND COMA. VISUAL EFFECTS FROM METHANOL INCLUDE
BLURRED VISION, DOUBLE VISION, CHANGES IN COLOR PERCEPTION, RESTRICTION OF
VISUAL FIELDS AND COMPLETE BLINDNESS. CARDIAC FAILURE AND PULMONARY EDEMA
MAY DEVELOP. SEVERE KIDNEY DAMAGE WHICH MAY BE FATAL FOLLOWS THE SWALLOWING
OF LARGE VOLUMES OF ETHYLENE GLYCOL. SIGNS OF RENAL INSUFFICIENCY MAY BE
DELAYED 36 TO 48 HOURS POST INGESTION. A FEW REPORTS HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED
DESCRIBING THE DEVELOPMENT OF WEAKNESS OF THE FACIAL MUSCLES, DIMINISHING
HEARING, AND DIFFICULTY WITH SWALLOWING, DURING THE LATE STAGES OF SEVERE
POISONING.
WITH MASSIVE OVERDOSES OF METHANOL, LIVER, KIDNEY AND HEART MUSCLE INJURY
HAVE BEEN DESCRIBED. THERE MAY BE A DELAY OF 6-12 HOURS BETWEEN SWALLOWING
METHANOL AND THE ONSET OF SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS. INGESTION OF MODERATE
QUANTITIES OF METHANOL ALSO PRODUCES METABOLIC ACIDOSIS. 60-200 ML OF
METHANOL IS A FATAL DOSE FOR MOST ADULTS INGESTION OF AS LITTLE AS 10 ML
MAY CAUSE BLINDNESS.
CHRONIC EFFECTS:
PROLONGED OR REPEATED INHALATION EXPOSURE MAY PRODUCE SIGNS OF CENTRAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM INVOLVEMENT, INCLUDING NAUSEA, VOMITING, HEADACHE, RINGING
IN THE EARS, DIZZINESS, VERTIGO, CLOUDY AND DOUBLE VISION. PROLONGED
OVEREXPOSURE AT LEVELS OF 800-1000 PPM MAY RESULT AND IN SEVERE EYE DAMAGE.
PROLONGED OR REPEATED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN SENSITIZATION AND AN
ASSOCIATED DERMATITIS IN SOME INDIVIDUALS. ETHYLENE GLYCOL HAS BEEN FOUND
TO CAUSE BIRTH DEFECTS IN LABORATORY ANIMALS. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS
FINDING TO HUMANS HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED.
