liquid may produce gastrointestinal discomfort and may be harmful if swallowed.
Ingestion may result in nausea, pain and vomiting. Vomit entering the lungs by
aspiration may cause potentially lethal chemical pneumonitis
EYE
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material may cause
severe eye irritation in a substantial number of individuals and/or may produce
significant ocular lesions which are present twenty-four hours or more after
instillation into the eye(s) of experimental animals. Eye contact may cause
significant inflammation with pain. Corneal injury may occur; permanent
impairment of vision may result unless treatment is prompt and adequate.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce conjunctivitis.
The material may produce severe irritation to the eye causing pronounced
inflammation. Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce
conjunctivitis.
The liquid produces a high level of eye discomfort and is capable of causing
pain and severe conjunctivitis. Corneal injury may develop, with possible
permanent impairment of vision, if not promptly and adequately treated.
SKIN
Skin contact with the material may be harmful; systemic effects may result
following absorption.
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either
produces inflammation of the skin in a substantial number of individuals
following direct contact, and/or produces significant inflammation when applied
to the healthy intact skin of animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation
being present twenty-four hours or more after the end of the exposure period.
The material may accentuate any pre-existing dermatitis condition.
Entry into the blood-stream, through, for example, cuts, abrasions or lesions,
may produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the
use of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
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.
Histologically there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer
(spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis.
INHALED
The material may produce respiratory tract irritation. Symptoms of pulmonary
irritation may include coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, shortness of breath,
headache, nausea, and a burning sensation.
Unlike most organs, the lung can respond to a chemical insult or a chemical
agent, by first removing or neutralising the irritant and then repairing the
damage (inflammation of the lungs may be a consequence).
The repair process (which initially developed to protect mammalian lungs from
foreign matter and antigens) may, however, cause further damage to the lungs
file:///C|/Temp/House%20of%20Kolor/5090-36.HTM (3 of 17) [25/Aug/03 8:42:11 AM]
ChemWatch MSDS MSDS for HOUSE OF KOLOR SHIMRIN BASES - SG-101, SG-102
(fibrosis for example) when activated by hazardous chemicals. Often, this
results in an impairment of gas exchange, the primary function of the lungs.
Therefore prolonged exposure to respiratory irritants may cause sustained
breathing difficulties.
.
Inhalation of vapours, aerosols (mists, fumes) or dusts, generated by the
material during the course of normal handling, may be harmful.
Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be
accompanied by narcosis, drowsiness, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack
of coordination and vertigo.
If exposure to highly concentrated solvent atmosphere is prolonged this may lead
to narcosis, unconsciousness, even coma and possible death.
Xylene is a central nervous system depressant. Central nervous system (CNS)
depression may include nonspecific discomfort, symptoms of giddiness, headache,
dizziness, nausea, anaesthetic effects, slowed reaction time, slurred speech and
may progress to unconsciousness. Serious poisonings may result in respiratory
depression and may be fatal.
Headache, fatigue, lassitude, irritability and gastrointestinal disturbances
(e.g., nausea, anorexia and flatulence) are the most common symptoms of xylene
overexposure. Injury to the heart, liver, kidneys and nervous system has also
been noted amongst workers. Transient memory loss, renal impairment, temporary
confusion and some evidence of disturbance of liver function was reported in
three workers overcome by gross exposure to xylene (10000 ppm). One worker died
and autopsy revealed pulmonary congestion, oedema and focal alveolar
haemorrhage. Volunteers inhaling xylene at 100 ppm for 5 to 6 hours showed
changes in manual coordination reaction time and slight ataxia. Tolerance
developed during the workweek but was lost over the weekend. Physical exercise
may antagonise this effect. Xylene body burden in humans exposed to 100 or 200
ppm xylene in air depends on the amount of body fat with 4% to 8% of total
absorbed xylene accumulating in adipose tissue.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Substance accumulation, in the human body, is likely and may cause some concern
following repeated or long-term occupational exposure.
On the basis of epidemiological data, the material is regarded as carcinogenic
to humans. There is sufficient data to establish a causal association between
human exposure to the material and the development of cancer.
Exposure to the material may cause concerns for human fertility, generally on
the basis that results in animal studies provide sufficient evidence to cause a
strong suspicion of impaired fertility in the absence of toxic effects, or
evidence of impaired fertility occurring at around the same dose levels as other
toxic effects, but which are not a secondary non-specific consequence of other
toxic effects.
Exposure to the material for prolonged periods may cause physical defects in the
developing embryo (teratogenesis).
Excessive exposure to lead can affect the blood, the nervous system, heart,
endocrine organs and the immune system and the digestive system. The synthesis
of haemoglobin is inhibited and can result in anaemia. If left untreated,
neuromuscular dysfunction, possible paralysis and encephalopathy (brain tissue
damage) may result. Other symptoms of overexposure include joint and muscle
file:///C|/Temp/House%20of%20Kolor/5090-36.HTM (4 of 17) [25/Aug/03 8:42:11 AM]
ChemWatch MSDS MSDS for HOUSE OF KOLOR SHIMRIN BASES - SG-101, SG-102
pain, weakness of the extensor muscles (frequently the hand and wrist),
headache, dizziness, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting,
blue line on the gums, insomnia and metallic taste. High body levels produce
cerebrospinal pressure, brain damage with stupor leading to coma and, in some
cases, death. Early symptoms of lead poisoning ("plumbism") include anorexia and
loss of weight, constipation, apathy or irritability, occasional vomiting,
fatigue, headache, weakness, and a metallic taste in the mouth. Advanced
poisonings are characterised by intermittent vomiting, irritability,
nervousness, myalgia of the arms and legs (often with wrist and foot drop).
Severe poisonings may produce persistent vomiting, ataxia, stupor or lethargy,
visual disturbances progressing to optic neuritis and atrophy, hyper- tension,
papilloedema, cranial nerve paralysis, delirium, convulsions and coma.
Neurological effects include mental retardation, seizures, cerebral palsy and
marked muscular contractions that distort the spine, limbs, hips and sometimes
the cranial inervated muscles (dystonia musculorum deformans). Industrial
exposure has been associated with irreversible kidney damage.
Lead is a cumulative poison with adverse effects in pregnancy [NIOSHTIC]
Lead salts have been reported to cross the placenta and induce embryo- and
foeto-mortality. They also may have a teratogenic effect (causing birth
deformities) in certain animal species. Organometallic lead may not produce
these effects. Adverse effects of lead on human reproduction, embryonic and
foetal development and postnatal mental development have also been recorded.
Foetal exposure to lead may result in birth defects, mental retardation,
behavioural disorders and death during the first year of childhood. Paternal
effects may include reduced sex drive, impotence, sterility and adverse effects
on the sperm which in turn may increase the potential for increased birth
defects. Maternal effects may include miscarriage and stillbirth in exposed
women, or women whose husbands might be exposed, sterility or decreased
fertility, and abnormal menses. Exposure by both parents to lead may exacerbate
the reproductive effects.
FIRST AID
SWALLOWED
路 If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
路 If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down
position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
路 Observe the patient carefully.
路 Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced
awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious.
路 Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as
casualty can comfortably drink.
路 Seek medical advice.
Avoid giving milk or oils.
Avoid giving alcohol.
EYE

ChemWatch MSDS MSDS for HOUSE OF KOLOR SHIMRIN BASES - SG-101, SG-102
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
路 Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
路 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.
路 If pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
路 Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by
skilled personnel.
SKIN
If skin contact occurs:
路 Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear
路 Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
路 Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
INHALED
路 If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
路 Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
路 Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed,
where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
路 Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve
resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if
necessary.
路 Transport to hospital, or doctor.
ADVICE TO DOCTOR
Any material aspirated during vomiting may produce lung injury. Therefore emesis
should not be induced mechanically or pharmacologically. Mechanical means should
be used if it is considered necessary to evacuate the stomach contents; these
include gastric lavage after endotracheal intubation. If spontaneous vomiting
has occurred after ingestion, the patient should be monitored for difficult
breathing, as adverse effects of aspiration into the lungs may be delayed up to
48 hours.
Severe bismuth intoxication may be treated with dimercaptol (BAL in oil).
Induction of acidosis by administration of ammonium chloride has been claimed to
promote mobilisation of bismuth from tissue depots and increase the rate of
urinary excretion.
[Martindale:The Extra Pharmacopoeia]
In mouse models D-penicillamine (Cuprimine M.S. & D) is a useful chelating
agent. [Ellenhorn & Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].
For acute or short term repeated exposures to dichromates and chromates:
路 Absorption occurs from the alimentary tract and lungs.
路 The kidney excretes about 60% of absorbed chromate within 8 hours of
ingestion. Urinary excretion may take up to 14 days.
路 Establish airway, breathing and circulation. Assist ventilation.
路 Induce emesis with Ipecac Syrup if patient is not convulsing, in coma or
file:///C|/Temp/House%20of%20Kolor/5090-36.HTM (6 of 17) [25/Aug/03 8:42:11 AM]
ChemWatch MSDS MSDS for HOUSE OF KOLOR SHIMRIN BASES - SG-101, SG-102
obtunded and if the gag reflex is present.
路 Otherwise use gastric lavage with endotracheal intubation.
路 Fluid balance is critical. Peritoneal dialysis, haemodialysis or exchange
transfusion may be effective although available data is limited.
路 British Anti-Lewisite, ascorbic acid, folic acid and EDTA are probably not
effective.
路 There are no antidotes.
路 Primary irritation, including chrome ulceration, may be treated with ointments
comprising calcium-sodium-EDTA. This, together with the use of frequently
renewed dressings, will ensure rapid healing of any ulcer which may develop.
The mechanism of action involves the reduction of Cr (VI) to Cr(III) and
subsequent chelation; the irritant effect of Cr(III)/ protein complexes is thus
avoided. [ILO Encyclopedia]
[Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].
For acute or short term repeated exposures to xylene:
路 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.
路 Pulmonary absorption is rapid with about 60-65% retained at rest.
路 Primary threat to life from ingestion and/or inhalation, is respiratory
failure.
路 Patients should be quickly evaluated for signs of respiratory distress (e.g.
cyanosis, tachypnoea, intercostal retraction, obtundation) and given oxygen.
Patients with inadequate tidal volumes or poor arterial blood gases (pO2 < 50 mm
Hg or pCO2 > 50 mm Hg) should be intubated.
路 Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and
electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported;
intravenous lines and cardiac monitors should be established in obviously
symptomatic patients. The lungs excrete inhaled solvents, so that
hyperventilation improves clearance.
路 A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and
circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax.
路 Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm
because of potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled
cardioselective bronchodilators (e.g. Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred
agents, with aminophylline a second choice.

Odour Threshold Value: 20 ppm (detection), 40 ppm (recognition)
NOTE: Detector tubes for o-xylene, measuring in excess of 10 ppm, are
available commercially. (m-xylene and p-xylene give almost the same
response)
Xylene vapour is an irritant to the eyes, mucous membranes and skin and
causes narcosis at high concentrations. Exposure to doses sufficiently high
to produce intoxication and unconsciousness also produces transient liver
and kidney toxicity. Neurologic impairment is NOT evident amongst
volunteers inhaling up to 400 ppm though complaints of ocular and upper
respiratory tract irritation occur at 200 ppm for 3 to 5 minutes.
Exposure to xylene at or below the recommended TLV-TWA and STEL is thought
to minimise the risk of irritant effects and to produce neither significant
narcosis or chronic injury. An earlier skin notation was deleted because
percutaneous absorption is gradual and protracted and does not
substantially contribute to the dose received by inhalation.

An increased incidence of non-specific symptoms including headache, weakness,
fatigue, anorexia and joint and muscle weakness has been reported to occur in
mining and metallurgy workers exposed to 60-600 mg (as Mo). Some investigators
have attributed gout and elevated uric acid concentration found in some
Armenians to result from exposures to Armenian soils rich in molybdenum, whilst
exposure has been implicated as a cause of bone disease amongst Indians. "These
involvements are speculative". [US National Research Council]. As far as it is
known, the recommended TLV-TWA incorporates a large margin of safety against
potential pulmonary or systemic effects.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS
General exhaust is adequate under normal operating conditions. Local exhaust
ventilation may be required in special circumstances. If risk of overexposure
exists, wear approved respirator. Supplied-air type respirator may be required
in special circumstances. Correct fit is essential to ensure adequate
protection. Provide adequate ventilation in warehouses and enclosed storage
areas. Air contaminants generated in the workplace possess varying "escape"
velocities which, in turn, determine the "capture velocities" of fresh
circulating air required to effectively remove the contaminant.
Type of Contaminant: Air Speed:
solvent, vapours, degreasing etc., 0.25-0.5 m/s (50-100 f/min)
evaporating from tank (in still air).
aerosols, fumes from pouring 0.5-1 m/s (100-200 f/min.)
operations, intermittent container
filling, low speed conveyer transfers,
welding, spray drift, plating acid
fumes, pickling (released at low
velocity into zone of active
generation)
direct spray, spray painting in shallow 1-2.5 m/s (200-500 f/min.)
booths, drum filling, conveyer loading,
crusher dusts, gas discharge (active
generation into zone of rapid air
motion)
grinding, abrasive blasting, tumbling, 2.5-10 m/s (500-2000 f/min.)
high speed wheel generated dusts
(released at high initial velocity into
zone of very high rapid air motion)
Within each range the appropriate value depends on:
Lower end of the range Upper end of the range
1: Room air currents minimal or 1: Disturbing room air currents
favourable to capture
2: Contaminants of low toxicity or of 2: Contaminants of high toxicity
nuisance value only.
3: Intermittent, low production. 3: High production, heavy use
4: Large hood or large air mass in 4: Small hood-local control only
motion
Simple theory shows that air velocity falls rapidly with distance away from the
opening of a simple extraction pipe. Velocity generally decreases with the
square of distance from the extraction point (in simple cases). Therefore the

ChemWatch MSDS MSDS for HOUSE OF KOLOR SHIMRIN BASES - SG-101, SG-102
air speed at the extraction point should be adjusted, accordingly, after
reference to distance from the contaminating source. The air velocity at the
extraction fan, for example, should be a minimum of 1-2 m/s (200-400 f/min) for
extraction of solvents generated in a tank 2 meters distant from the extraction
point. Other mechanical considerations, producing performance deficits within
the extraction apparatus, make it essential that theoretical air velocities are
multiplied by factors of 10 or more when extraction systems are installed or
used.
路 Employees exposed to confirmed human carcinogens should be authorized to do so
by the employer, and work in a regulated area.
路 Work should be undertaken in an isolated system such as a "glove-box" .
Employees should wash their hands and arms upon completion of the assigned task
and before engaging in other activities not associated with the isolated system.
路 Within regulated areas, the carcinogen should be stored in sealed containers,
or enclosed in a closed system, including piping systems, with any sample ports
or openings closed while the carcinogens are contained within.
路 Open-vessel systems are prohibited.
路 Each operation should be provided with continuous local exhaust ventilation so
that air movement is always from ordinary work areas to the operation.
路 Exhaust air should not be discharged to regulated areas, non-regulated areas
or the external environment unless decontaminated. Clean make-up air should be
introduced in sufficient volume to maintain correct operation of the local
exhaust system.
路 For maintenance and decontamination activities, authorized employees entering
the area should be provided with and required to wear clean, impervious
garments, including gloves, boots and continuous-air supplied hood. Prior to
removing protective garments the employee should undergo decontamination and be
required to shower upon removal of the garments and hood.
路 Except for outdoor systems, regulated areas should be maintained under
negative pressure (with respect to non-regulated areas).
路 Local exhaust ventilation requires make-up air be supplied in equal volumes to
replaced air.
路 Laboratory hoods must be designed and maintained so as to draw air inward at
an average linear face velocity of 150 feet/ min. with a minimum of 125 feet/
min. Design and construction of the fume hood requires that insertion of any
portion of the employees body, other than hands and arms, be disallowed.

equipment at the point of exit and at the last exit of the day, to place used
clothing and equipment in impervious containers at the point of exit for
purposes of decontamination or disposal. The contents of such impervious
containers must be identified with suitable labels. For maintenance and
decontamination activities, authorized employees entering the area should be
provided with and required to wear clean, impervious garments, including gloves,
boots and continuous-air supplied hood.
路 Prior to removing protective garments the employee should undergo
decontamination and be required to shower upon removal of the garments and hood.
Overalls.
PVC Apron.
PVC protective suit may be required if exposure severe.
Eyewash unit.
Ensure there is ready access to a safety shower.
路 Employees working with confirmed human carcinogens should be provided with,
and be required to wear, clean, full body protective clothing (smocks,
coveralls, or long-sleeved shirt and pants), shoe covers and gloves prior to
entering the regulated area.
路 Employees engaged in handling operations involving carcinogens should be
provided with, and required to wear and use half-face filter-type respirators
with filters for dusts, mists and fumes, or air purifying canisters or
cartridges. A respirator affording higher levels of protection may be
substituted.
路 Emergency deluge showers and eyewash fountains, supplied with potable water,
should be located near, within sight of, and on the same level with locations
where direct exposure is likely.
RESPIRATOR
Respiratory protection may be required when ANY "Worst Case" vapour-phase
concentration is exceeded (see Computer Prediction in "Exposure Standards").
