Tergitol TMN-0(90% Aqueous) Page Number: 2 Section 3. Hazards Identification Potential Acute Health Effects Potential Chronic Health Effects Hazardous in case of eye contact (irritant). Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator), of ingestion, of inhalation. CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: MUTAGENIC EFFECTS: TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Repeated or prolonged exposure is not known to aggravate medical condition. Section 4. First Aid Measures Eye Contact Skin Contact Serious Skin Contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 5 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention. Wash with soap and water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Get medical attention if irritation develops. Cold water may be used. Inhalation Serious Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention. Ingestion Serious Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical attention if symptoms appear. Section 5. Fire and Explosion Data Flammability of the Product Auto-Ignition Temperature Flash Points Flammable Limits Products of Combustion Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances May be combustible at high temperature.

Tergitol TMN-0(90% Aqueous) Page Number: 3 Section 6. Accidental Release Measures Small Spill Large Spill Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements. Absorb with an inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system. Section 7. Handling and Storage Precautions Storage Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Do not ingest. Do not breathe gas/fumes/ vapor/spray. Avoid contact with eyes. Wear suitable protective clothing. If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Keep away from incompatibles such as oxidizing agents, acids, alkalis. Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls Personal Protection Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill Exposure Limits Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are proximal to the work-station location. Safety glasses or Splash goggles. Lab coat or Synthetic apron. Gloves (impervious). Respiratory protection is normally not required for usual industrial handling. Respiratory protection is needed if ventilation is inadequate and exposure limits are exceeded and if handling of material produces mist/aerosol or vapor. Splash goggles. Full suit. Boots. Gloves. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product. Polyethylene Glycol: TWA: 0 (mg/m 3 ) from AIHA (WEELs) [United States] Inhalation Consult local authorities for acceptable exposure limits. Section 9.

Toxicological Information Routes of Entry Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans Other Toxic Effects on Humans Toxicity to Animals Chronic Effects on Humans other Toxic Effects on Humans Absorbed through skin. Eye contact. Acute oral toxicity (LD50): 5650 mg/kg [Rat]. Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator), of ingestion, of inhalation. LD50 [Rabbit] - Route: Skin; Dose: 4780 ul/kg This product may contain trace amounts of the following which may cause cancer: Acetaldehyde,4-Dioxane Formaldehyde Ethylene Oxide This product may contain trace amounts of the following which may cause reproductive harm: Ethylene Oxide Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: May cause skin irritation. It may be absorbed through the skin, but no evidence of harmful effects was found from available information. Eyes: Causes severe eye irritation with possible chemical burns and conjunctivitis. Corneal injury may be severe, extensive, and if not treated promptly, could result in impairment of vision. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. Short-term harmful health effects are not expected from vapor generated at ambient temperature. Ingestion: May cause irritation of the digestive tract (mouth, throat, esophagus, and stomach) with pain or discomfort in the mouth, throat, and chest and abdomen, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, thrist. May also affect behavior and respiration. Symptoms may include dizziness, drowsiness, sluggishness, unsteady gait, weakness, and rapid breathing. Aspiration into the lungs may occur during ingestion or vomiting, resulting in lung injury. Chronic Potential Health Effects: Skin: Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause dermatits. Prolonged contact may also cause more severe irritation and possible tissue destruction.
