EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: white to pale yellow solid.
Warning! Causes eye and skin irritation.
Target Organs: Eyes, skin.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause severe eye irritation. Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Amines have been known to cause skin
irritation and sensitization. No skin absorption data found.
Ingestion:
May cause irritation of the digestive tract.
Inhalation:
Material has a low vapor pressure, so exposure to vapor is not
likely.
Chronic:
Not available.
Octadecylamine, a similar chemical, was tested for chronic toxicity
in rats exposed through the diet to up to 500 ppm for 2 years. No
significant pathological differences between control and test animals
were observed.
