6. HEALTH HAZARD DATA: (CONTINUED)
significant skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause some skin irritation, even a burn. Hay be a weak skin sensitizer.
SKIN ABSORPTION: A single prolonged skin exposure is not likely to result in absorption of harmful amounts. The LD50 for absorption in rabbits is 3000 mg/kg.
INGESTION: Single dose oral toxicity is low. The LD50 for rats is between 1000 and 2000 mg/kg. Amounts ingested incidental to industrial handling are not likely to cause injury; however ingestion of larger amounts may cause injury.
INHALATION: At room temperature, exposures to vapors are unlikely due to physical properties; higher temperatures may generate vapor levels sufficient to cause irritation. Dusts may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract. Dusts may cause sneezing.
SYSTEMIC OTHER EFFECTS: No convincing evidence of carcinogenicity has been seen in long-term animal studies. Has been toxic to the fetus in laboratory animals at doses toxic to the mother.
7. FIRST AID:
EYES: Irrigate with flowing water immediately and continuously for 15 minutes. Consult medical personnel.
SKIN: Wash off in flowing water or shower. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Wash thoroughly after handling.
INGESTION: Induce vomiting if large amounts are ingested. Consult medical.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air if effects occur. Consult

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: If burn is present, treat as any thermal burn, after decontamination. No specific antidote. Supportive care. Treatment based on judgment of the physician in response to reactions of the patient.
8. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
EXPOSURE GUIDELINE (S): Dow IHG is 5 mg/m3.
VENTILATION: Good general ventilation sufficient for most conditions. Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Atmospheric levels should be maintained below the exposure guideline. When respiratory protection is required for certain operations, use an approved air-purifying respirator.
SKIN PROTECTION: For brief contact, no precautions other than clean body-covering clothing should be needed. Use impervious gloves when prolonged or frequently repeated contact could occur.
EYE PROTECTION: Use chemical goggles.
9. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Practice reasonable care to avoid eye and skin contact.
