SWALLOWED
?If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
?If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open
airway and
prevent aspiration.
Avoid giving milk or oils.
Avoid giving alcohol.
?If spontaneous vomiting appears imminent or occurs, hold patient's head down, lower than their hips to help avoid
possible
aspiration of vomitus.
EYE
?If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
?Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
?Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by
occasionally lifting
the upper and lower lids.

Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
SKIN
?If skin contact occurs:
?Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
?Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
INHALED
?If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
?Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
?Any material aspirated during vomiting may produce lung injury. Therefore emesis should not be induced
mechanically or
pharmacologically.
Following acute or short term repeated exposures to toluene:
?Toluene is absorbed across the alveolar barrier, the blood/air mixture being 11.2/15.6 (at 37 degrees C.) The
concentration of
toluene, in expired breath, is of the order of 18 ppm following sustained exposure to 100 ppm. The tissue/blood
proportion is 1/3
except in adipose where the proportion is 8/10.
?Metabolism by microsomal mono-oxygenation, results in the production of hippuric acid. This may be detected in the
urine in
amounts between 0.5 and 2.5 g/24 hr which represents, on average 0.8 gm/gm of creatinine. The biological half-life
of hippuric
acid is in the order of 1-2 hours.
For acute or short term repeated exposures to xylene:
?Gastro-intestinal absorption is significant with ingestions. For ingestions exceeding 1-2 ml (xylene)/kg,
intubation and lavage
with cuffed endotracheal tube is recommended. The use of charcoal and cathartics is equivocal.
?Pulmonary absorption is rapid with about 60-65% retained at rest.
Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
?Foam.
?Dry chemical powder.
FIRE FIGHTING
?Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
?May be violently or explosively reactive.
When any large container (including road and rail tankers) is involved in a fire,
consider evacuation by 500 metres in all directions.
FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD
?Liquid and vapour are flammable.
?Moderate fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame.
Combustion products include: carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), other pyrolysis products typical of burning
organic
material.
Contains low boiling substance: Closed containers may rupture due to pressure
buildup under fire conditions.
May emit clouds of acrid smoke.
FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY
?Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as
ignition may
result.
Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
MINOR SPILLS
?Remove all ignition sources.
?Clean up all spills immediately.
MAJOR SPILLS
?Clear area of personnel and move upwind.
?Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.

Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the MSDS.
Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING
?Containers, even those that have been emptied, may contain explosive vapours.
?Do NOT cut, drill, grind, weld or perform similar operations on or near containers.
Contains low boiling substance:
Storage in sealed containers may result in pressure buildup causing violent rupture of containers not rated
appropriately.
?Check for bulging containers.
?Vent periodically.
?DO NOT allow clothing wet with material to stay in contact with skin.
?Electrostatic discharge may be generated during pumping - this may result in fire.
?Ensure electrical continuity by bonding and grounding (earthing) all equipment.
?Avoid all personal contact, including inhalation.
?Wear protective clothing when risk of overexposure occurs.
SUITABLE CONTAINER
?Packing as supplied by manufacturer.
?Plastic containers may only be used if approved for flammable liquid.
?For low viscosity materials (i) : Drums and jerry cans must be of the non-removable head type. (ii) : Where a can
is to be used
as an inner package, the can must have a screwed enclosure.
?For materials with a viscosity of at least 2680 cSt. (23 deg. C).
STORAGE INCOMPATIBILITY
?Avoid reaction with oxidising agents.
STORAGE REQUIREMENTS
?Store in original containers in approved flammable liquid storage area.
?Store away from incompatible materials in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
?Harmful if swallowed. ?Possible risk of harm to the unborn child.
?HARMFUL- May cause lung damage if swallowed. ?Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect*.
?Irritating to eyes and skin. ?Cumulative effects may result following
exposure*.
?Vapours may cause dizziness or suffocation. ?* (limited evidence).
?Vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness.
?May produce discomfort of therespiratory
system*.
?Inhalation and/or skin contactmay produce
health damage*.
?* (limited evidence).
TOXICITY AND IRRITATION
?Lifetime exposure of rodents to gasoline produces carcinogenicity although the relevance to humans has been
questioned. Gasoline induces kidney cancer in
male rats as a consequence of accumulation of the alpha2-microglobulin protein in hyaline droplets in the male (but
not female) rat kidney.
The material may produce severe irritation to the eye causing pronounced inflammation. Repeated or prolonged
exposure to irritants may produce
conjunctivitis.
The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may produce a contact dermatitis
(nonallergic). This form of dermatitis is
often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling the epidermis.
