Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
COLOURLESS
LIQUID.
Physical Dangers:
Chemical Dangers:
The substance polymerize with acids and bases
with fire or explosion hazard.
On combustion, forms acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
Reacts with active hydrogen compounds (e.g., alcohols, amines).
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV: 0.1 ppm as TWA; (skin); A3; (ACGIH 2004).
MAK: H;
Carcinogen category: 2;
(DFG 2004).
OSHA PEL: none
NIOSH REL: Ca TWA 10 ppm (60 mg/m3) skin See Appendix A
NIOSH IDLH: Ca N.D. See: IDLH INDEX
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation,
through the skin
and
by ingestion.
Inhalation Risk:
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
is irritating to
the eyes
,
the skin
and
the respiratory tract
.
Inhalation of the substance may cause lung oedema (see Notes).
Exposure at high level may result in death.
The effects may be delayed.
Medical observation is indicated.
See Notes.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
The substance may have effects on the kidneys, ovary, testis
, resulting in tissue lesions.
This substance is possibly carcinogenic to humans.
Animal tests show that this substance possibly causes toxic effects upon human reproduction.

N O T E S
|
The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential.
Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered.
EP-206, ERLA-2270, ERLA-2271, UNOX Epoxide 206, NCI-C60135, and Chissonox-206 are trade names.
