(Cor*num3 Printed on ftocydod Paper MCD 000023061 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION # Potential Health Effects # Substance information Primary Routes of Entry: Skin, inhalation A few studies have indicated that workers exposed many years to high concentrations of benzene have a slightly higher incidence of leukemia. Benzene can also be toxic to the blood and blood-forming tissues. The product may cause irritation to the eyes, lungs, or skin after prolonged or repeated exposure. Extreme overexposure or aspiration into the lungs may cause lung damage or death. Overexposure may cause weakness, headache, nausea, confusion, blurred vision, drowsiness, and other nervous system effects; Greater overexposure may cause dizziness, slurred speech, flushed ace, unconsciousness, and convulsions. Inhalation of xylene can cause nausea, headache, weakness, dizziness, confusion, incoordination, and loss of consciousness. Ingestion can cause gastrointestinal irritation and symptoms of central nervous sytem depression; aspiration into the lungs may be lethal. High exposures can cause skin, eye, nose, and throat irritation; heart stress; anemia; respiratory difficulties; bleeding from mucosal surfaces; liver and kidney effects; and death. Remember that good hygienic practices can be helpful in preventing adverse health effects; for example, exposure to material and its fumes can be minimized by using protective clothing or devices while contaminated skin should be washed. Intermittent or occasional skin contact with the material is not expected to have serious health effects as long as good personal hygiene measures, such as those outlined in this material safety data sheet, are followed. The real risk for any chemical exposure is related to the degree of exposure. Carcinogenicity inforaation The following components are listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA or ACGIH as carcinogens.

Do not enter enclosed or confined space without proper protective equipment including respiratory protection. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Safeguards (Personnel) NOTE: Review FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES and HANDLING (PERSONNEL) sections before proceeding with clean-up. Use appropriate PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT during clean-up. Remove source of heat, sparks, flame, impact, friction and electricity including internal combustion engines and power tools. If equipment is used for spill cleanup, it must be explosion proof and suitable for flammable liquid and vapor. NOTE: Vapors released from the spill may create an explosive atmosphere. Initial Containment Dike spill. Prevent material from entering sewers, waterways, or low areas. Spill Clean Up Soak up with sawdust, sand, oil dry or other absorbent material. Shovel or sweep up. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling (Personnel) Avoid breathing vapors or mist. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash clothing after use. # Handling (Physical Aspects) * Use of non-sparking and explosion-proof equipment may be necessary depending on type of operation. Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, grind, or drill on or near full or empty container. Empty container retains residue (liquid and/or vapor) and may explode in heat of a fire. Storage Store in accordance with National Fire Protection Association recommendations. Store away from heat, sparks and flames. (ConartMtf GASC0065 Pag# 4 MCD 000023064 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Controls Ventilation: Storage and use areas should be well ventilated. Use fans or blowers in enclosed areas. Personal Protective Equipment Respiratory Protection: A NlOSH/MSHA-approved, air purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air-supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. Protective Gloves: Should be worn when any potential exists for skin contact. NBR or neoprene recommended. Eye Protection: Goggles or face shield for spray/mists or if splashing is probable. Other Protective Equipment: Coveralls are recommended if splashing is probable. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION # Animal Data Animal studies have shown that prolonged or repeated inhalation exposures to high concentrations of some petroleum distillates have caused liver tumors in mice and kidney damage and tumors in male rats. However, kidney effects were not seen in similar studies involving female rats, guinea pigs, dogs, or monkeys. Present studies indicate the kidney effects will only occur in male rats. Also, human studies do not indicate this peculiar sensitivity for kidney damage and studies reported in 1992 showed that this particular type of rat kidney damage is not useful in predicting a human health hazard. The significance of liver tumors in mice exposed to high doses of chemicals is highly speculative and probably not a good indicator for predicting a potential human carcinogenic hazard. Mouse skin painting studies have shown that petroleum middle distillates (boiling range 100-700 F; naphtha, jet fuel, diesel fuel, kerosene, etc.) can cause skin cancer when repeatedly applied and never washed from the animal's skin. The relative significance of this to human health is uncertain since the petroleum distillates were not washed from the skin and resulting skin effects (irritation, cell damage, etc.) may play a role in the tumorigenic response. A few studies have shown that washing the animalrs skin with soap and water between treatements greatly reduces the carcinogenic effect of some petroleum oils. One published study reports limited data suggesting long-term ingestion of 500 mg/kg of toluene caused increased malignant tumors in rats. Other more extensive inhalation studies demonstrated no carcinogenic effects in animals. Animal studies with toluene have failed to demonstrate birth defects in rats and mice. However, toluene has been shown to cause delayed growth and extra ribs in the offspring of rats and mice at inhaled doses (266-399 ppm) that were non-toxic to the mother. Toluene has not been conclusively shown to cause adverse reproductive effects*in humans. Toluene overexposure may also cause cardiac irregularities and hearing loss (animal data). XYLENE: Eye: Animal testing indicates this material is an eye irritant.

This material has not been tested for skin sensitization. Single exposure to high doses caused: Narcosis. Ingestion: LD50, rat: 4,500 mg/kg (Slightly toxic). Single exposure caused: Prostration and incoordination. Repeated exposure caused: Shallow respiration, prostration, liver and kidney effects, reduced weight gain, and altered hematology and clinical chemistry. Long-term exposure caused: Decreased body weight and histopathological changes of the liver. Inhalation: 4 hour, LC50, rat: 6,700 ppm (Very low toxicity). Single exposure caused: Upper respiratory tract irritation, behavioral effects, incoordination, prostration, altered respiratory rate, low blood pressure, and altered hematology. Repeated exposure caused: Incoordination: decreased response to sound; histopathological changes of the liver, kidneys, adrenals, heart, spleen, lungs, and bone marrow; altered hematology; and reduced weight gain. Long-term exposure caused: Liver effects. Additional Toxicological Effects of Xylene: One published study reports limited data suggesting high oral doses caused an increase in malignant tumors in rats. However, other more extensive animal studies have demonstrated no evidence of carcinogenicity. Animal data show developmental effects only at or near levels producing other toxic effects in the adult animal. Reproductive data on adult animals show: No change in reproductive performance. Tests have shown that this material does not cause genetic damage in bacterial or mammalian cell cultures, or in animals. In animal testing, this material has not caused permanent genetic damage in reproductive cells of mammals (has not produced heritable genetic damage).
