Repeated and prolonged overexposure to the mixture of solvent(s) listed in Section 2 can result in systemic effects including permanent brain, nervous system, liver, and kidney damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. |
|
Emergency |
Product
is beige, medium viscosity mastic with a strong solvent odor. DANGER: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE, VAPOR HARMFUL. CONTAINS HEXANE. Vapors can cause flash fire. Vapors may ignite explosively. Prevent buildup of vapors by opening all windows and doors to create cross-ventilation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Do not smoke. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights. Turn off stoves, heaters, and sparking electric motors. Keep away from all sources of ignition until all vapors are gone. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Avoid prolonged breathing of vapor. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. |
|
Routes
of Entry
|
Ingestion: Yes; Inhalation: Yes; Skin: Yes; Eye: Yes |
|
Inhalation
|
Avoid breathing vapors or mist. May cause headache and dizziness. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the nose, throat, and lungs and can cause systemic effects. Vapors can readily accumulate in confined or poorly ventilated areas. |
|
Ingestion
|
Ingestion is not a probable route of exposure. Harmful if swallowed. |
|
Skin
|
Prolonged or repeated skin contact can cause irritation. |
|
Eye

|
Target
Organs
|
Prolonged or repeated overexposure may cause eye, skin, respiratory system, central nervous system,and peripheral nervous system damage. |
|
|
Epinephrine and other sympathomimetic drugs may initiate cardiac arrhythmias (irregular beating) in persons exposed to high concentrations of hexane (e.g. in enclosed spaces or with deliberate abuse). If used, monitor heart action closely. Consider use of other drugs with less arrhythmogenic potential. |
|
Inhalation
|
Remove to fresh air. If difficulty persists seek medical attention. |
|
Ingestion
|
Call poison control center immediately. Follow their specific instructions. Do not induce vomiting. |
|
Skin

Hexane/Acute |
Ingestion of hexane can cause nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and diarrhea. Hexane can irritate the skin and eyes. Acutely, the most common toxic effects are central nervous system depression and chemical pneumonitis resulting from aspiration into the lungs following ingestion. |
|
Hexane/Chronic
|
Dermal irritation and central nervous system depression accompanied by peripheral nervous system damage (polyneuropathy) are common traits of sustained overexposure. |
| This formulation has not been tested for environmental effects. |
