Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
YELLOW-BROWN VISCOUS LIQUID
(TECHNICAL GRADE)
, WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.
Physical Dangers:
Chemical Dangers:
The substance decomposes
on heating above 275°C
producing toxic fumes.
Reacts with strong oxidants.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV not established.
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of its aerosol and
by ingestion.
Inhalation Risk:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
irritates
the eyes,
the skin and
the respiratory tract.
The substance may cause effects on the nerve terminals of the skin
, resulting in subjective facial skin sensation characterized by tingling, burning or numb sensation.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
