WARNING MESSAGES:
(1) Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents
with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately
concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Chronic exposure may
cause damage to the central nervous system, respiratory system, lung, eye, skin, liver,
gastrointestinal tract, spleen, kidneys, and blood.
(2) See Section IX for reportable Hazardous Air Pollutants.

cool closed containers.
V. HEALTH HAZARD DATA .
THRESHOLD LIMIT VALUE: See Section II.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
Acute- High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes and the
respiratory tract, and may cause headaches, dizziness,
anesthesia, drowsiness, unconsciousness, and other central
nervous system effects, including death. Product has a low
order of acute oral and dermal toxicity, but minute amounts
aspirated into the lungs during ingestion or vomiting may cause
mild to severe pulmonary injury and possibly death.
Chronic- Xylene contains ethylbenzene which has been classified as a
possible carcinogen to humans, Group 2B, by the International
Agency for Research on Cancer(IARC), based on sufficient
evidence in laboratory animals but inadequate evidence for
cancer in humans. Prolonged or repeated overexposure to
ethylbenzene may cause the following: kidney effects, liver
effects, lung effects, thyroid effects, testicular effects,
pituitary effects.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS PRONE TO AGGRAVATION BY EXPOSURE: consult physician
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: Skin and Inhalation
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. Restore breathing. Treat
symptomatically. Consult a physician.
EYES: Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least
15 minutes. Talk to a physician for medical treatment.
SKIN: Wipe off with towel. Wash with soap and water. Remove
contaminated clothing.
INGESTION: If swallowed, call a physician immediately. Remove
stomach contents by gastric suction or induce vomiting only
as directed by a medical personnel. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person.
VI. REACTIVITY DATA .
STABILITY: *stable* HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: *will not occur*
N-2018 3
INCOMPATIBILITY: * unknown *
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Fire, burning and welding may generate
carbon monoxide.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Fire, burning, and welding.
VII. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES .
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED:
Remove all sources of ignition (flames, hot surfaces and
electrical, static or frictional sparks). Avoid breathing
vapors. Ventilate area. Use non-sparking tools. Remove with
inert absorbant.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Dispose of in accordance with local, state, and
federal regulations.
VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION .
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: In confined areas of poor ventilation, use chemical
cartridge respirator or self-contained breathing
apparatus.
VENTILATION: Provide general dilution or local exhaust ventilation in
volume and pattern to keep TLV and LEL of most hazardous
ingredient in Section II, below acceptable limit.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: None required except for prolonged contact.
EYE PROTECTION:
Splash proof eye goggles. In emergency situations, use eye
goggles with a full face shield.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: *none*
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: See Section V
IX. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS .
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING:
Do not store near heat, sparks, or flame.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: * none *
