HEALTH EFFECTS
Eye
May cause mild eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing,
and redness.
Skin
May cause mild skin irritation. Symptoms may include redness and
burning of skin.
Swallowing
Swallowing small amounts of this material during normal handling
is not likely to cause harmful effects. Swallowing large amounts
may be harmful.
Inhalation
Breathing of vapor or mist is possible.
Symptoms of Exposure
Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through breathing,
swallowing, and/or passage of the material through the skin may
include stomach or intestinal upset (Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea)
irritation (nose, throat, and airways).
Target Organ Effects
Overexposure to this material (or its components) has been suggested
as a cause of the following effects in laboratory animals: testis
damage.
Developmental Information
This material (or a component) has been shown to cause birth defects
in laboratory animal studies. The relevance of these finding to
human is uncertain.
Cancer Information
These is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of di(2-ethylhexyl)
Phthalate in experimental animals. Administered in the feel, this
chemical caused increased incidence of liver cancer in male and
female rats and mice. The relevance of this finding to humans
in uncertain. This material is listed as a carcinogen by the International
Agency for Research on Cancer and the National Toxicology Program.
Other Health Effects
No Data
Primary Routes of Entry
Inhalation, Skin Contact
FIRST
AID MEASURES
Eye
Contact If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure
and into fresh air. Flush eyes gently with water while holding
eyelids apart. If symptoms persist or there is any visual difficulty,
seek medical attention.
Skin Contact
Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed area with soap and
Water. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Launder clothing
before reuse.
Inhalation
If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into
fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. If breathing
is difficult, administer oxygen. Keep person warm and quiet; seek
immediate medical attention.
Ingestion
Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious,
do not give anything by mouth; place individual on the left side
Note to Physicians: Preexisting disorders of the following organs
(or organ systems) may be aggravated by exposure to this material:
lung (for example, asthma-like conditions), male reproductive
system.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash
Point (test method) 420.0 - 425.0 F (215.5 - 218.3 degree C) COC
Extinguishing Media
Regular foam, water fog, carbon dioxide, dry chemical.

Special Fire fighting Procedures
Water or foam may cause frothing which can be violent and possibly
endanger the life of the firefighter. Wear a self-contained breathing
apparatus with a full-face piece operated in the positive pressure
demand mode with appropriate turnout gear and chemical resistant
personal protective equipment. Refer to the personal protective
equipment section of this MSDS.

product.
PERSONAL
PROTECTION
Eye Protection
Chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA regulations are
advised; however, OSHA regulations also permit other type safety
glasses. Consult your safety representative.
If exposure limit(s) of product or any component is exceeded (see
exposure guidelines), a NIOSH/MSHA approved air supplied OSHA
regulations also permit other NIOSH/MSHA
Skin Protection
Wear resistant gloves such as neoprene or polyethylene.
Respiratory Protection
Not required under normal conditions of use. If workplace exposure
limit(s) of product or any component is exceeded (see exposure
guidelines), a NOISH/MSHA approved air supplied respirator is
advised in absence of proper environmental control. OSHA regulations
also permit other NOISH/MSHA respirators (negative pressure type)
under specified conditions (see your industrial hygienist). Engineering
or administrative controls should be implemented to reduce exposure.
Engineering Controls
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation
to maintain exposure below TLV(s).
