COMES IN A VARIETY OF COLORS. INHALATION OVEREXPOSURES TO THE VAPORS OF THIS
PRODUCT CAN CAUSE CENTRAL-NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS (E.G., DIZZINESS,
DROWSINESS, NAUSEA, AND HEADACHES). THIS PRODUCT CAN BE MILDLY TO SEVERELY
IRRITATING TO THE EYES, SKIN, AND OTHER CONTAMINATED TISSUE. VAPORS OF THIS
PRODUCT ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY TRAVEL TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION AND
FLASHBACK TO A LEAK OR OPEN CONTAINER. TETRAHYDROFURAN, A COMPONENT OF THIS
PRODUCT, IS KNOWN TO FORM EXPLOSIVE PEROXIDES UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.
EMERGENCY RESPONDERS MUST WEAR THE PROPER PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (AND
HAVE APPROPRIATE FIRE PROTECTION) SUITABLE FOR THE SITUATION TO WHICH THEY
ARE RESPONDING.
SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE BY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE:
THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ROUTES OF OCCUPATIONAL OVEREXPOSURE ARE INHALATION AND
CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES.
THE SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE TO THIS PRODUCT, VIA ROUTE OF EXPOSURE, ARE AS
FOLLOWS:
INHALATION:
INHALATION OF VAPORS, MISTS, OR SPRAYS OF THIS PRODUCT CAN BE IRRITATING TO
THE NOSE, THROAT, MUCOUS MEMBRANES, AND OTHER TISSUES OF THE RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM. SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE CAN INCLUDE COUGHING, SNEEZING, AND
SHORTNESS OF BREATH. ADDITIONALLY, THE COMPONENTS OF THIS PRODUCT ARE
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSANTS. SYMPTOMS OF OVER-EXPOSURE CAN INCLUDE
DROWSINESS, DIZZINESS, FATIGUE, HEADACHE, NAUSEA, AND GENERAL ANESTHETIC
EFFECTS. INHALATION OF HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF THIS PRODUCT (AS MAY OCCUR IN
A POORLY- VENTILATED AREA) MAY BE FATAL. BASED ON CLINICAL STUDIES INVOLVING
TEST ANIMALS, CYCLOHEXANONE AND TETRAHYDROFURAN, COMPONENTS OF THIS PRODUCT,
MAY CAUSE LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE AFTER LONG-TERM INHALATION OVEREXPOSURES.
THIS PRODUCT MUST BE USED WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. MECHANICAL EXHAUST MAY
BE NEEDED. ENSURE EXPOSURE TO VAPORS IS MINIMIZED BY USE OF APPROPRIATE
ENGINEERING CONTROLS, WORK PRACTICES, AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT, AS
DESCRIBED IN THE REMAINDER OF THIS DOCUMENT.
CONTACT WITH SKIN OR EYES:
CONTACT WITH THIS PRODUCT CAN BE IRRITATING TO CONTAMINATED SKIN AND EYES.
VAPORS OF THIS PRODUCT CAN REDDEN AND IRRITATE THE EYES. IF THE EYES ARE
CONTAMINATED WITH SPLASHES, SPRAYS OR MISTS OF THIS PRODUCT, REDDENING,
TEARING, AND CORNEAL OPACITY CAN OCCUR. THE LIQUID CAN BE MILDLY TO SEVERELY
IRRITATING TO CONTAMINATED SKIN (DEPENDING ON DURATION OF EXPOSURE).
PROLONGED OR REPEATED SKIN OVER-EXPOSURES CAN LEAD TO DERMATITIS.
SKIN ABSORPTION:
SKIN ABSORPTION IS A POTENTIAL ROUTE OF OVEREXPOSURE FOR CYCLOHEXANONE
(A COMPONENT OF THIS PRODUCT). SYMPTOMS OF SUCH EXPOSURE CAN INCLUDE THOSE
DESCRIBED UNDER "INHALATION" AND "CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES".
INGESTION:
INGESTION IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE A SIGNIFICANT ROUTE OF OCCUPATIONAL
OVEREXPOSURE FOR THIS PRODUCT. IF INGESTION OCCURS, REFER TO SECTION 4
(FIRST-AID MEASURES) AND GET MEDICAL HELP IMMEDIATELY. IF INGESTION OF THIS
PRODUCT DOES OCCUR, SYMPTOMS OF SUCH OVER-EXPOSURE CAN INCLUDE NAUSEA,
VOMITING, AND OTHER SYMPTOMS DESCRIBED FOR "INHALATION". INGESTION CAN ALSO
LEAD TO LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE. INGESTION OF THIS PRODUCT MAY BE FATAL.
INJECTION:
INJECTION IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE A SIGNIFICANT ROUTE OF OVER-EXPOSURE FOR
THIS PRODUCT. IF INJECTION DOES OCCUR (I.E. THROUGH A PUNCTURE BY AN OBJECT
CONTAMINATED WITH THE PRODUCT), LOCAL IRRITATION AND SWELLING CAN OCCUR.
ADDITIONAL SYMPTOMS MAY INCLUDE THOSE DESCRIBED FOR "INHALATION".
HEALTH EFFECTS OR RISKS FROM EXPOSURE: AN EXPLANATION IN LAY TERMS.
ACUTE:
OVER-EXPOSURES TO THIS PRODUCT CAN BE IRRITATING TO THE EYES, SKIN, AND
MUCOUS MEMBRANES, AND CAN ALSO CAUSE CENTRAL-NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS
(DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS, NAUSEA AND HEADACHES). INGESTION OF THIS PRODUCT, OR
INHALATION OF HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF THIS PRODUCT'S VAPORS, MAY BE FATAL.
CHRONIC:
PROLONGED OR REPEATED SKIN EXPOSURES CAN LEAD TO DERMATITIS (DRYNESS,
REDDENING AND IRRITATION OF THE SKIN). TETRAHYDROFURAN, A COMPONENT OF THIS
PRODUCT, MAY CAUSE LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE AFTER LONG-TERM INHALATION
OVEREXPOSURES. THERE IS LIMITED EVIDENCE FROM ANIMAL STUDIES THAT METHYL
ETHYL KETONE, A COMPONENT OF THIS PRODUCT, IS A REPRODUCTIVE TOXIN. REFER TO
SECTION11 (TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION) FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. A REPORT
FROM THE NATIONAL TOXICOLOGY PROGRAM (NTP) HAS SUGGESTED THAT EXPOSURE OF
MICE AND RATS TO TETRAHYDROFURAN (THF) VAPOR LEVELS UP TO 1800 PPM 6 HR/DAY,
5 DAYS/WEEK FOR THEIR LIFETIMES CAUSED AN INCREASED INCIDENCE OF KIDNEY
TUMORS IN MALE RATS AND LIVER TUMORS IN FEMALE MICE. NO EVIDENCE OF TUMORS
WAS SEEN IN FEMALE RATS OR MALE MICE. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THESE FINDINGS FOR
HUMAN HEALTH IS UNCLEAR AT THIS TIME, AND MAY BE RELATED TO "SPECIES
SPECIFIC" EFFECTS. ELEVATED INCIDENCES OF TUMORS IN HUMANS HAVE NOT BEEN
REPORTED FOR THF. THE NTP, IARC, OR OSHA DOES NOT LIST THF AS A CARCINOGEN.
ONE THF VENDOR (DUPONT) HAS RECOMMENDED A REDUCTION IN THE "ACCEPTABLE
EXPOSURE LIMIT" FROM 200 PPM TO 25 PPM, 8 AND 12 HOUR TIME WEIGHTED AVERAGE
AND A STEL OF 75 PPM.
