11. Toxicological Information

 

 

- Inhalation:

 

Low vapour concentratios cause irritation of the respiratory tract, causing. coughing and slight difficulty with breathing.Higher concentrations produce more severe irritation, and may be accompanied by nausea, fatigue, weakness, euphoria, drowsiness, double vision, ataxia, and coma.

 

- Skin:

May produce mild reddening of the skin.Prolonged contact may produce a drying and fissuring due to a defatting action.  

 

- Eyes:

Vapor is mildly irritating.Liguid produces chemical conjunctivitis     

with mild transient corneal injury.

 

 

- Ingestion:

Slightly toxic. Ingestion of moderate quantities may cause abdominal  discomfort, nausea and drowsiness..

 

 

12. Ecological Information

 

 

BLEND-IN 77  is almost  insoluble in water and will float on the surface.It could cause a fire or explosion if a large spill drained into a sewer system and would be highly toxic to fish if dischartged to natural waters.Avoid dischange to sewers or waterways! At very low concentratiaon in water is biodegradability in biological wastewater treatment plant.

 

13. Disposal Considerations

 

 

Methods of disposal:

 

 

Controlled incineration.

Danger(s):

Emptied vase contain solvent vapours, hezardous in respect of fire, explosion and noxiousness Disposal only to licensed vase reconditioners.
