Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
COLOURLESS LIQUID
, WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.
Physical Dangers:
The vapour mixes well with air, explosive mixtures are formed easily.
As a result of flow, agitation, etc., electrostatic charges can be generated.
Chemical Dangers:
The substance can presumably form explosive peroxides.
Reacts with strong oxidants.
Attacks rubber, paints and lining materials.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV not established.
MAK not established.
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of its vapour.
Inhalation Risk:
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached rather quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
If this liquid is swallowed, aspiration into the lungs may result in chemical pneumonitis.
Exposure at high levels could cause lowering of consciousness.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
The liquid defats the skin.
