Version: 2.4
Symptoms
Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through breathing, swallowing,
and/or passage of the material through the skin may include:, stomach or intestinal upset
(nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), irritation (nose, throat, airways), central nervous system
depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache,
unconsciousness), difficulty in breathing, Bloody urine, blood abnormalities (breakage of
red blood cells), kidney damage, liver damage, coma
Target Organs
Acute lethal exposure to ethylene glycol monobutyl ether in animal studies has
resulted in congestion of organs including kidney, spleen, and lung., Exposure to this
material (or a component) has been found to cause kidney damage in male rats. The
mechanism by which this toxicity occurs is specific to the male rat and the kidney effects
are not expected to occur in humans., Overexposure to this material (or its components)
has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in laboratory animals:, mild,
reversible liver effects, mild, reversible spleen effects, blood abnormalities
Carcinogenicity
This material is not listed as a carcinogen by the International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC), the National Toxicology Program (NTP), or the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Ethylene glycol monobutyl
ether has been shown to cause cancer in laboratory animals. The relevance of this finding
to humans is uncertain.
Reproductive hazard
This material (or a component) has been shown to cause harm to the fetus in
laboratory animal studies. Harm to the fetus occurs only at exposure levels that harm the
pregnant animal. The relevance of these findings to humans is uncertain.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes
If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into
fresh air. Flush eyes gently with water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids
apart; seek immediate medical attention.

INX Products PlastxKleen? Revision Date: 3/4/2008
MSDS Number: R0297297
Version: 2.4
Skin
Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with large amounts of water.
If skin is damaged, seek immediate medical attention. If skin is not damaged and
symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Launder clothing before reuse.
Ingestion
Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious, do not give
anything by mouth; place individual on the left side with the head down. Contact a
physician, medical facility, or poison control center for advice about whether to induce
vomiting. If possible, do not leave individual unattended.
Inhalation
If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. If
symptoms persist, seek medical attention. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.
Keep person warm and quiet; seek immediate medical attention.
Notes to physician
Hazards: Inhalation of high concentrations of this material, as could occur in
enclosed spaces or during deliberate abuse, may be associated with cardiac arrhythmias.
Sympathomimetic drugs may initiate cardiac arrhythmias in persons exposed to this
material. This material is an aspiration hazard. Potential danger from aspiration must be
weighed against possible oral toxicity (See Section 2 - Swallowing) when deciding
whether to induce vomiting.
Treatment: No information available.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media
Dry chemical, Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Hazardous combustion products
carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons
Precautions for fire-fighting
Material is volatile and readily gives off vapors which may travel along the
ground or be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, flames, sparks, heaters,
smoking, electric motors, static discharge or other ignition sources at locations near the
material handling point. Never use welding or cutting torch on or near drum (even empty)
because product (even just residue) can ignite explosively.Wear full firefighting turn-out
gear (full Bunker gear), and respiratory protection (SCBA). Water may be ineffective
for extinguishment unless used under favorable conditions by experienced fire fighters.
Use water spray to cool fire exposed containers and structures until fire is out if it can be
done with minimal risk. Avoid spreading burning liquid with water used for cooling
purposes.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions
For personal protection see section 8. Persons not wearing protective equipment
should be excluded from area of spill until clean-up has been completed.
Environmental precautions
Prevent spreading over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers). Do not
let product enter drains. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Local
authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Methods for cleaning up
Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g.
sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal
according to local / national regulations (see section 13).
Other information
Comply with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. Suppress (knock
down) gases/vapours/mists with a water spray jet.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied
containers retain product residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions
given in the data sheet must be observed. Static ignition hazard can result from handling
and use. Electrically bond and ground all containers, personnel and equipment before
transfer or use of material. Special precautions may be necessary to dissipate static
electricity for non-conductive containers. Use proper bonding and grounding during
product transfer as described in National Fire Protection Association document NFPA 77.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area, away from incompatible substances.

General advice
These recommendations provide general guidance for handling this product.
Personal protective equipment should be selected for individual applications and should
consider factors which affect exposure potential, such as handling practices, chemical
concentrations and ventilation. It is ultimately the responsibility of the employer to
follow regulatory guidelines established by local authorities.
Exposure controls
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to
maintain exposure below exposure guidelines (if applicable) or below levels that cause
known, suspected or apparent adverse effects.
Eye protection
Wear chemical splash goggles when there is the potential for exposure of the eyes
to liquid, vapor or mist.
Skin and body protection
Wear normal work clothing including long pants, long-sleeved shirts and foot
covering to prevent direct contact of the product with the skin. Launder clothing before
reuse. If skin irritation develops, contact your facility health and safety professional or
your local safety equipment supplier to determine the proper personal protective
equipment for your use.
Wear resistant gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier).
Respiratory protection
A NIOSH-approved air-purifying respirator with an appropriate cartridge and/or
filter may be persmissible under certain circumstancs where airborne concentrations are
expected to exceed exposure limits (if applicable) or if overexposure has otherwise been
determined. Protection provided by air-purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive
pressure, air-supplied respirator if there is any potential for uncontrolled release,
exposure levels are not known or any other circumstances where an air-purifying
respirator may not provide adequate protection.
