SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Threshold Limit Value
The individual TLV's are 100 ppm for perchlor and 500 ppm for methylene chloride. Consult 29 CFR 1910.1000 for details 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 o: the individual components.
Perchloroethylene^ )--0ral LCLo (rabbit): 5,000 mg/ kg Inhalation LCLo (rat): 4,000 ppm (four-hours)
Methylene Chloride^--Oral LD<j0 (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.
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 com bination 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 perchlor 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.
SL 074481
2- - CSM-211
Eye contact can result in irritation, pain and discomfort. Pro longed or repeated contact with the skin can cause irritation and dermati ti s.
Chronic
May cause narcosis, pulmonary congestion and liver and kidney darrage upon prolonged or repeated inhalation of vapor.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures
Inhalation Overexposure
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.
Note to Physician
Avoid use of adrenalin in any case where a person has been overcome by perchloroethylene or methylene chloride.
Eye 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 vomiting by placing a finger far back in the throat. Call a physician. If vomiting cannot be induced, take immediately to a hospital or a 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 naximurn 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.
-3- CSM-211
SECTION VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION Respiratory Protection NIOSH/MHSA-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 o Do not use in poorly ventilated or confined spaces, o Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. o Do not store in open, unlabeled or mislabeled containers. Other Precautions o Avoid prolonged or repeated breathing of vapor. o Use only with ventilation sufficient to limit employee exposure as far below OSHA permissible exposure limit as practical. o Avoid contact with eyes. o Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin, o Do not take internally.
