• Routes of Entry: Not to be taken orally, no prolonged skin or eye irritation noted on prolonged exposure
• LD50: 5 grams/kilogram (Oral)
• Tested on: Rats
• Skin Overexposure effects: Prolonged skin or eye contact may cause light temporary irritation.
• Skin Irritation: Limited Tests indicate no significant long term irritation
• Eye Irritation: Limited Tests indicate no significant long term irritation.
• Inhalation Acute: Very low vapor pressure suggests that this would not be applicable.
• Inhalation Chronic: Very low vapor pressure suggests that this would not be applicable
• Oral Ingestion: Oral ingestion of small amounts will cause diarrhea. Oral Ingestion of large amounts could cause systemic collapse.
• Effects of Acute Exposure: Oral - see above; Skin or eye, Limited tests indicate no significant long term irritation
• Effects of Chronic Exposure: Oral - see above; Skin or eye, Limited tests indicate no significant long term irritation.
• Exposure Limits: No Tests Run - Very low vapor pressure combined with the very low toxicity and the small surface areas of the material when applied to contacts suggests that for practical purposes it would be virtually impossible to reach an airborne concentration that would be injurious. Limited testing on skin exposure indicate no significant long term irritation or sensitization. We suggest a precautionary washing of the exposed areas with soap and water.
