The substance can presumably form explosive peroxides.
Reacts with strong oxidants.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV not established.
MAK: skin absorption (H); sensitization of skin (Sh);
Carcinogen category: 3A;
(DFG 2004).
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of its vapour.
Inhalation Risk:
No indication can be given about the rate in which a harmful concentration in the air is reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
is irritating to
the eyes
and
the skin
.
Exposure could cause lowering of consciousness.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis.
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
