| |
| Route of Entry: |
Eye: major; Skin: major; Ingestion: minor |
| Effects of Acute Exposure: |
Irritation can result from liquid, mist or vapour contact
respiratory tract, eyes and skin. Absorption through skin or inhalation of
vapour at normal temperatures poses minimal hazard. Slightly toxic by ingestion,
but ingestion of large amounts will cause diarrhea. Aspiration can damage lungs
and cause death. |
| Effects of Chronic Exposure: |
Prolonged or repeated exposure can defat skin and lead to
dermatitis. May cause allergic skin response in some persons. Intense long-term
exposure may cause kidney problems |
