V. FIRE FIGHTING Flash Point and Method 12.9 ºC / 55.2 ºF(Closed Cup)
MEASURES Flammability Limit, by volume (LEL-UEL) 0.6 - 7 %
Autoignition Temperature 450 ºC
GENERAL HAZARD:
Highly flammable liquid; may release flammable vapors when temperatures are at or over the flash point. Toxic gases will form upon combustion.
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Allow fire to burn out under controlled conditions or fight fire from a safe distance, extinguishing with foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or dry
sand. Do not use directly "WATER" to extinguish to avoid the danger of fire spread that may be caused by floating flammable material on the
water surface. But if possible to do without hazard, use water spray to cool fire exposed surface and isolate material from heat.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical or dry sand.
FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT:
Respiratory and eye protection required for fire fighting personnel. Full protective equipment (Bunker Gear) and a self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) should be used for all indoor fires and significant outdoor fires. For small outdoor fires, which may easily be extinguished with
a portable fire extinguisher, use of an SCBA may not be required.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCT:
Smokes, fumes and oxide of carbon.
VI. ACCIDENTAL Provide maximum ventilation. Personal protection should be used. Remove all sources of ignition. Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. Avoid
RELEASE runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Take up spilled material with vermiculite, dry sand (Don't use organic material to take
MEASURES up or wipe for example: sawdust, cotton cloth or paper which cause fire by spontaneous chemical reaction with air and paint and organic materials)
and place in a disposal container.
VIII. EXPOSURE The face, eyes, head, hands, and all other exposed parts of the bodies of employees handling paints shall be protected. All footwear shall be non-
CONTROLS / sparking, such as rubbers, rubber boots or rubber soled shoes without nails. Coveralls or other outer clothing shall be of cotton. Rubber, rather than
PERSONAL plastic, gloves shall be used because of the danger of static sparks.
PROTECTION
No matches, lighted cigarettes, cigars, or pipes, and no cigarette lighters or ferrous articles shall be taken into the area where work is being done. All
employees continuously in a compartment in which painting is being performed shall be protected by air line respirators in accordance with the
requirements of the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) and by suitable protective clothing. Employees entering such
compartments for a limited time shall be protected by filter cartridge type respirators in accordance with the requirements of the OSHA. All
employees doing exterior paint spraying shall be protected by suitable filter cartridge type respirators in accordance with the requirements of the
OSHA and by suitable protective clothing.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling it. Thoroughly wash the hands with soap and water before meals and at the end of the work shift.
EXPOSURE GUIDELINE:
Chemical Name Threshold Limit Value
Xylene, all isomers 100 ppm (TWA8, ACGIH)
Solvent naphtha (petroleum), light aromatic 100 mg/m3 (TWA8, HSPA occupational exxposure limits [OELs])
Ethylbenzene 20 ppm (TWA8, ACGIH)
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Based on the human evidence including "throat irritation, severe pulmonary
congestion, alveolar haemorrhage, pulmonary oedema, congestion accompanying hepatomegaly, centrilobular vacuolation of hepatocytes, nerve
cell damage associated with dot haemorrhage, swelling and disappearance of Nissl bodies, limb cyanosis, a transient increase in serum
transaminase activity, an increase in the blood level of urea, a decrease in endogenous creatinine clearance in the urine, liver damage, severe
kidney damage, amnesia, coma" and "pulmonary congestion, pulmonary oedema, focal alveolar haemorrhage," it is classified as Category 1
Target organ toxicant and the evidence from animal studies including "strong narcotic effect," it is classified as Category 3 Target organ toxicant.
The basis for the classification includes data on xylene with unknown composition or containing other substances.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: Based on the human evidence including "eye/nose irritation, thirst" and
"chronic headache, chest pain, abnormal electroencephalogram, dyspnea, cyanosis of the hands, fever, a decrease in WBC count, discomfort,
impairment of pulmonary function, a decrease in working capacity, physical/mental disorders," it is classified as Category 1 Target organ toxicant.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Classified as Category 2 Aspiration toxicant based on the report that aspiration of xylene or acute exposure to high
vapour concentrations of this substance may cause chemical pneumonitis, haemorrhage into the air spaces, and pulmonary oedema. A worker
exposed to the vapours of a solvent containing 75 percent xylene (approximate airborne xylene concentration of 60 to 350 ppm) developed
giddiness, anorexia, and vomiting. After inhalation of high (not further specified) concentrations of xylene, workers may become flushed, feel hot,
and experience confusion, dizziness, tremors, and other signs or symptoms of central nervous system toxicity.
Ethylbenzene
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, ingestion, skin and/or eye contact.
SYMPTOMS: Irritation eyes, skin, mucous membrane; headache; dermatitis; narcosis, coma
Page 4 of 6 TARGET ORGANS: Eyes, skin, respiratory system, central nervous system
DAVIES LIQUID-TILE PENETRATING SEALER CLEAR
INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance is irritating to the eyes , the skin and the respiratory tract. Swallowing the liquid may
cause aspiration into the lungs with the risk of chemical pneumonitis. The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system. Exposure
above the occupational exposure limit (OEL) could cause lowering of consciousness.
EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: This substance is possibly carcinogenic to humans. The substance may have effects
on the kidneys and liver, resulting in impaired functions Repeated contact with skin may cause dryness and cracking.
ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY: The calculated LD50 (Rat, oral) was 3,500 mg/kg. Therefore, it was classified as Category 5.
ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY : The dermal LD50 for ethylbenzene in New Zealand White rabbits was calculated as 15,415 mg/kg body-weight.
Hence, it is not classified.
ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY: The acute inhalation LC50, vapor, 4 hours for ethylbenzene in Carworth Wistar rats was calculated as 17.8
mg/L (4,000 ppm) body weight. For this fact, it is classified as Category 4.
SKIN CORROSION/IRRITATION: Undiluted ethylbenzene has been shown to produce moderate irritation when applied to the uncovered skin of
rabbits. The application of undiluted ethylbenzene to the ear and to the shaved abdomen of rabbits up to 20 times during a 4-week period
resulted in moderate irritation. There was erythema and edema with superficial necrosis and exfoliation of large patches of skin. From this fact,
ethylbenzene is classified as Category 3 (Mild skin irritant).
SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE/IRRITATION: Drop application to rabbit eyes caused slight irritation and no corneal injury demonstrable by fluorescein
staining. Standard testing on rabbit eyes gave an injury grade of 2 on a scale of 10. Ethylbenzene is classified as Category 2B (mildly irritating to
eyes).
RESPIRATORY / SKIN SENSITIZATION: Respiratory sensitization: Classification is not possible because the available data were insufficient to
warrant a classification.
Skin sensitization: Classification is not possible because the available data were insufficient to warrant a classification.
GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: In a National Toxicology Program study, ethylbenzene was not mutagenic in Salmonella tests and did not induce
chromosomal aberrations or sister chromatid exchange in Chinese hamster ovary CHO) cells in vitro , although it did induce trifluoro-thymidine
resistance in mouse lymphoma cells at the highest concentration tested (80 mg/litre). There was no increase of micronuclei in the peripheral
blood of mice exposed to ethylbenzene. Based on these data, ethylbenzene is not classified as mutagenic.
CARCINOGENICITY: IARC reported that there is inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene but there is sufficient
evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene. Thus, ethylbenzene is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B).
ACGIH classified ethylbenzene as A3; Confirmed animal carcinogen with unknown relevance to humans. From these facts, ethylbenzene is
classified as Category 2 (Suspected human carcinogen).
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Based on the description of mice/rat teratogenicity tests: Toxic effects on the embryo (urinary malformation) are
observed at dosing levels not toxic to maternal animals, it is classified as Category 1B (Presumed human reproductive toxicant).
EFFECTS ON OR VIA LACTATION: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Classification is not possible due to lack of data.
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - SINGLE EXPOSURE: Single high exposures to ethylbenzene through inhalation cause irritation of the
mucous membranes and central nervous system effects (2,180 ppm). Ethylbenzene is classified as Category 2 (central nervous system) and
Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation).
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY - REPEATED EXPOSURE: Classification is not possible because the available data were insufficient to
warrant a classification.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Classified as Category 1 Aspiration toxicant based on the description in International Chemical Safety Cards (ICSC):
Ethylbenzene, if swallowed, may cause chemical pneumonia due to misswallowing. The substance is a hydrocarbon, the kinematic viscosity of
which stands at 0.6 mm2/s (25 ºC).
