The effect of methylene chloride upon this is not known. SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA Threshold Limit Value - The individual TLV's are 100 ppm for trichlor and 500 ppm for methylene chloride. Consult 29 CFR 1910.1000 for de tails on the method for calculating permissible exposure limits for mixtures. Acute Toxicity Values - No tests have been run on this blend of solvents. The following is data on the toxicity of the individual components: Trichlor - Oral LD50 (rat): 4,900-7,000 mg/kg Oral LDLo (human): 857 mg/kg Inhalation LCLq (rat): 8,000 ppm/4 hour Methylene Chloride - Oral LD50 (rat): 2,136 mg/kg Inhalation LCLq (guinea pig): 5,000 ppm/2 hours Inhalation TCLq* (human): 500 ppm/8 hours Effects of Overexposure Acute: Irritant and central nervous system depressant. Inhalation can cause irritation of the respiratory tract, dizziness, nausea, headache, loss of coordination and equilibrium, unconsciousness and even death in confined or poorly ventilated areas. Fatalities following severe acute exposure have been attributed to ventricular fibrillation. Research^has recently shown that methylene chloride is metabo lized by the body to carbon monoxide. Further, the amount of carbon monoxide formed is directly related to the amount of methylene chloride absorbed and can be sufficient to produce a substantial stress on the cardiovascular system through the elevation of the level of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb)--the product formed by the combi SL 074476 -2- CSM-133 nation of carbon monoxide and the blood's hemoglobin, thus effectively reducing the amount of hemoglobin available for the formation of oxyhemoglobin. Employees working with this blend of trichlor and methylene chloride should be made aware of this hazard. Further, employees with a history or even a suspicion of having cardiovascular disease should not be exposed to methylene chloride for any length of time. Chronic: May damage the liver and kidneys upon prolonged repeated inhalation of the vapor. Trichloroethylene, 50% (by vol.) of CSM-133, has been shown to cause cancer in experimental laboratory animals (mice) via chronic ingestion^) of liquid. Although no evidence presently exists showing trichloroethylene to cause cancer in rats or humans, it is strongly suggested that trichloroethylene users re view their health programs, "tighten-up" their operations, and Institute good operating and housekeeping practices designed to limit employee exposure as much below current OSHA permissible exposure limits as practical. Emergency and First Aid Procedures Inhalation Overexposure: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breath ing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician. Note to Physician: Avoid use of adrenalin in any case where a person has been overcome by trichloroethylene or methylene chloride. Eve Contact: Flush with plenty of water for at least fifteen minutes. If irritation occurs, consult a physician. Skin Contact; Wash thoroughly with plenty of soap and water. If irritation occurs, consult a physician. Swallowing: If conscious, drink a quart of water then induce vomit ing by placing a finger far back in the throat. Call a physician. If vomiting cannot be induced, take immediately to a hospital or physician. If unconscious, or in convulsions, take immediately to a hospital or physician. DO NOT induce vomiting or give anything by mouth. SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled Immediately evacuate area and provide maximum ventilation. Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory and skin/eye protection should be allowed in area. Collect spilled material on sawdust or vermiculite and sweep into closed containers for disposal. Then flush area with plenty of water and maintain ventilation until vapors are eliminated. SL 074477 -3- CSM-133 SECTION VIII ~ SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION Respiratory Protection - NIOSH/MSHA-approved organic vapor respirator for concentrations below 1,000 ppm. For 1,000 ppm and above, use air-supplied respiratory protection. Consult 29 CFR 1910.134 for details. SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storing Do not use in poorly ventilated or confined spaces. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Do not store in open, unlabeled or mislabeled containers. Other Precautions Avoid prolonged or repeated breathing of vapor. Use only with ventilation sufficient to limit employee exposure as far below OSHA permissible exposure limit as practical. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Do not take internally. REFERENCES 1. NIOSH Registry of Toxic Effect of Chemical Substances, 1975 2. Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology, Vol. II, Second Edition, Fourth Edition, F. A. Patty, 1963 3.
