11. Toxicological Information

- Inhalation:

Low vapour concentratios cause irritation of the respiratory tract, causing coughing and slight difficulty with breathing.

- Skin:

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

- Eyes:

Vapour is mildly irritating. Liquid 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

 BODY AUTOFLEX SPECIAL 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 slightly toxic to fish if discharged to natural waters. Avoid discharge to  

 sewers or waterways! At very low concentration in water it is biodegradable in biological wastewater treatment plants.
