HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS (See Section 11 for toxicological data.)
EYE: May cause slight transient (temporary) eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely. Mists may
cause eye irritation.
SKIN CONTACT: Prolonged contact is essentially nonirritating to skin. A single prolonged
exposure is not likely to result in the material being absorbed through skin in harmful amounts.
Repeated exposures may cause flaking and softening of skin.
INGESTION: Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be extremely low. No hazards
anticipated from swallowing small amounts incidental to normal handling operations.
INHALATION: At room temperature, vapours are minimal due to physical properties. Mists may
cause irritation of upper respiratory tract (nose and throat).
SYSTEMIC (OTHER TARGET ORGAN) EFFECTS: Repeated excessive exposure to propylene
glycol may cause central nervous system effects.
CANCER INFORMATION: Did not cause cancer in laboratory animals.
TERATOLOGY (BIRTH DEFECTS): Birth defects are unlikely. Exposures having no adverse
effects on the mother should have no effect on the fetus.
REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS: In animal studies, has been shown not to interfere with
reproduction.
