POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
Primary routes of exposure
Routes of entry for solids and liquids include eye and skin
contact, ingestion and inhalation. Routes of entry for gases
include inhalation and eye contact. Skin contact may be a route of
entry for liquefied gases.
Solvents are absorbed through the skin.
Acute toxicity
Inhalation may cause CNS depression, blurred vision, dizziness and
drowsiness.
Overexposure may cause nausea and vomiting.
Inhalation causes headache and nausea.
Vapors have a suffocating effect.
Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling this
product may be harmful or fatal.
May cause sensitization by skin contact.
Information on: ethyl benzene
Vapors are readily absorbed through the lungs. Inhalation of
ethylbenzene vapors causes drowsiness, narcosis, headaches,
cramps, and tightness of the chest. Severe overexposure can
cause death due to respiratory center paralysis. If aspiration
occurs, chemical pneumonitis or pulmonary edema may result.
Ingestion may result in kidney or liver damage. Ethyl benzene
is absorbed through the skin at a low rate.
Information on: ethylene glycol butyl ether
Because butyl cellosolve is skin absorbed, contact may result
in systemic effects. Acute inhalation overexposures have led
to changes of the lungs, kidneys, livers, and blood of mice.

Version: 1.0 (30144359/CDU_GEN_US/EN)
Information on: formaldehyde
Formaldehyde is highly irritating to the upper respiratory
tract and eyes, nose, throat and lungs. Repeated exposure may
lead to sensitization in some individuals. Formaldehyde
overexposure can cause symptoms of bronchial asthma, either by
direct irritation or sensitization. Inhalation may cause
irritation to the respiratory tract, breathing difficulties,
coughing, CNS effects, pneumonitis and pulmonary edema.
Information on: isobutanol
Inhalation or ingestion of isobutanol may result in narcosis.
Information on: methyl ethyl ketone
Inhalation of high concentrations of methyl ethyl ketone may
produce irritation to the nose, throat and eyes; CNS effects
and peripheral neuropathy. Ingestion of high oral doses may
produce liver damage.
Information on: naphthalene
Ingestion results in cramps, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea;
listlessness; bladder irritation; colored urine and
hemolyticanemia and hemoglobinuria. The vapors cause eye
irritation at a concentration of 15 ppm in air. Sensitization
has been known to occur in workers.
Information on: ethylene glycol propyl ether
An animal study indicates that contact with 2-propoxyethanol
may result in sensitization in some individuals.
Information on: 1,2,4 trimethylbenzene
Inhalation of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene may result in CNS effects
including CNS depression, nausea, anxiety and headache.
Aspiration of the liquid into the lungs may result in
pulmonary edema and chemical pneumonitis. Asthmatic bronchitis
may be aggravated by 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene exposure.
Information on: toluene
Inhalation may be irritating and result in fatigue,
headaches,CNS effects and narcosis. Severe inhalation
overexposures may cause death by paralysis of the respiratory
tract. Aspiration of toluene into the lungs can cause chemical
pneumonitis which can be fatal.
Irritation
Skin contact may result in irritation, defatting and dermatitis.
Vapors cause irritation to the respiratory tract and the eyes.
Prolonged inhalation of product vapor can result in irritation of
the mucous membranes.
Information on: ethyl benzene
Ethylbenzene is extremely irritating to the eyes, skin and
upper respiratory tract. Eye contact may result in
conjunctivitis and corneal injury.
Medical conditions aggravated by overexposure
The use of products that contain or liberate formaldehyde is
regulated under the OSHA Formaldehyde Standard (see 29 CFR
1910.1048).
Consult the standard for medical surveillance requirements.

Version: 1.0 (30144359/CDU_GEN_US/EN)
Animal studies indicate that chronic overexposure to
ethylbenzene may cause liver and kidney injury. Increased
liver and kidney weight were found in rats exposed to 400 ppm
for 186 days. Animal studies indicate that the vapors may be
embryotoxic. Prolonged skin contact will cause edema and
blistering. In NTP 2-year inhalation studies, clear evidence
of carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene in male rats was noted
based on increased incidences of kidney neoplasms. Incidences
of testicular adenoma were also increased. In female rats,
male mice and female mice there was some evidence of
carcinogenicity, based on kidney adenoma, lung neoplasms and
liver neoplasms, respectively. The International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified ethylbenzene in
Category 2B, sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in
animals.
Information on: ethylene glycol butyl ether
Overexposure may cause hemolytic anemia. No significant
adverse effects were seen in rats exposed to airborne butyl
cellosolve levels of up to 77 ppm for 50 days or rabbits
exposed dermally to 150 mg/kg/day for 90 days. Embryotoxicity
and malformations occurred among offspring of rats exposed to
100 ppm by inhalation. These effects were accompanied by
maternal toxicity.
Information on: formaldehyde
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has
classified formaldehyde as a Group 1 (known) human carcinogen
based on epidemiological evidence linking formaldehyde
exposure to occurence of nasopharyngeal cancer. NTP listed
carcinogen. The use of products that contain or liberate
formaldehyde is regulated under the OSHA Formaldehyde Standard
(see 29 CFR 1910.1048).
Information on: isobutanol
Chronic overexposure to isobutanol has been associated with
anorexia and weight loss in humans. Following repeated doses
to 6400 ppm, mice exhibited slight liver and kidney injury.
Studies of limited size indicated that isobutanol was
carcinogenic to rats by the oral and subcutaneous routes.
Information on: methyl ethyl ketone
Methyl ethyl ketone was teratogenic and embryotoxic to rats by
inhalation at concentrations of 1,000 and 3,000 ppm. Repeated
skin contact may result in dermatitis.
Information on: naphthalene
Repeated oral ingestion has been known to produce cataracts in
experimental animals. Lung and kidney damage have been known
to occur via the intraperitoneal route in animals; however,
this is not considered a relevant route of exposure. Reduction
in the pup number per litter has been known to occur in mice
dosed 300 mg/kg naphthalene orally. In an NTP 2-year bioassay
there was some evidence of carcinogenic activity in female
mice as indicated by the increased incidences of pulmonary
alveolar/bronchiolar adenomas.
Information on: ethylene glycol propyl ether
In subchronic studies, 2-propoxyethanol caused damage to the
liver, kidneys, spleen, and red blood cells of rats. Rats
exposed to airborne concentrations of 400 to 800 ppm for two
weeks exhibited spleen and red blood cell damage. In a study

Version: 1.0 (30144359/CDU_GEN_US/EN)
involving rats exposed to vapors as high as 400 ppm, it was
shown that propyl cellosolve did not cause teratogenic and
reproductive effects.
Information on: amorphous silica
In recent studies, fumed and precipitated synthetic amorphous
silicas were fibrogenic to the lungs of monkeys, with the
fumed form being the most active type.
Information on: titanium dioxide
In a National Cancer Institute (NCI) feeding study, titanium
dioxide was not carcinogenic to rats or mice at maximum
tolerated doses. In another study, TiO2 caused fibrosis and
lung cancer in rats exposed to 250 mg/m3 by inhalation.
However, no effects were seen at lower airborne
concentrations.
Information on: 1,2,4 trimethylbenzene
In a subchronic toxicity study, male rats were gavaged with
either 0.5 or 2.0 g/kg 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene once daily, for
5 days/week for four weeks. Mortality occured in 1 rat from
the low dose group; all rats died in the high dose group
during the study.
Information on: toluene
Chronic overexposure to toluene may result in liver and kidney
damage. Animal studies indicate that toluene is embryotoxic
and teratogenic when administered at high doses.
