HAZARD RATING SYSTEM NFPA: HEALTH: 1 HMIS: HEALTH: 2 KEY: 0 – Minimal FLAMMABILITY: 1 FLAMMABILITY: 1 1 – Slight 2 - Moderate REACTIVITY: 0 REACTIVITY: 0 3 - Serious 4 - Severe POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, Ingestion, Skin Contact/Absorption, Eye Contact Eye: May cause slight transient (temporary) eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely. Vapors or mists may cause eye irritation. Skin: Prolonged or repeated exposure not likely to cause significant skin irritation.
PAGE 3
CHRONIC, PROLONGED OR REPEATED OVEREXPOSURE Effects of Repeated Overexposure: Repeated inhalation of ethylene glycol mist may produce signs of central nervous system involvement, particularly dizziness and nystagmus. Other Effects of Overexposure: repeated skin contact with ethylene glycol may, in a very small proportion of cases, cause sensitization with the development of allergic contact dermatitis. The incidence is significantly less than 1% with the undiluted material. 4.

A more effective intravenous antidote for physician use is 4-methylpyrazole, a potent inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenases, which effectively blocks the formation of toxic metabolites of ethylene glycol. It has been used to decrease the metabolic consequences of ethylene glycol poisoning before metabolic acidosis coma, seizures, and renal failure have occurred.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Protect People: Material is moderately toxic when ingested. Take adequate precautions to keep people, especially children away from spill site. PVC-coated rubber gloves and monogoggles or face shield can be used during cleanup of spill site. Product on surfaces can cause slippery conditions. Practice reasonable care and cleanliness. Avoid breathing spray mists if generated. Keep out of reach of children. Product may become a solid at temperatures below -18oC (0oF).

Hydrated Inorganic Acid Sodium Salt: The lowest dose of a similar compound reported to produce death in humans was estimated to be 709 mg/kg body weight for a person weighing 150 pounds, this would be equivalent to swallowing about one-tenth (.1) of a pound of the dry material in a short period of time. Acute oral LD50s for a similar compound = 2,650 mg/kg (rats) 2,000 mg/kg (mice) Mutagenicity (The Effects on Genetic Material): mutagenicity studies were negative.

ACUTE TOXICITY Peroral: The lethal dose in humans is estimated to be 3 oz. or 100 ml. Rat: LD50 (6000 – 13000) mg/kg Percutaneous: Rabbit: LD50 = >22270 mg/kg; 24 h occluded Inhalation: Rat: 8-hour exposure, substantially saturated vapor studies, dynamic generation method Mortality: 0/6 Inhalation: Mist/vapor study, rat, at 170°C, 8-hour exposure = 2.2 mg/l Mortality: 0/6 Inhalation: Rat: 8-hour exposure, fog = 10000 ppm; 65° - 70°C Mortality: 0/6 IRRITATION Skin: Rabbit: 24-hour occluded contact, 0.

SENSITIZATION (ANIMAL AND HUMAN STUDIES) Repeated skin contact with ethylene glycol may, in a very small proportion of cases, cause sensitization with the development of allergic contact dermatitis. The incidence is significantly less than 1% with the undiluted material. REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY A three-generation study indicated that ethylene glycol did not affect reproductive parameters at dietary concentrations up to 1.0 gm/kg/day in any generation.

Cutaneous application of ethylene glycol is ineffective in producing developmental toxicity. Exposure to high aerosol concentrations is only minimally effective in producing developmental toxicity. 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION (Concentrated Ethylene Glycol) ENVIRONMENTAL FATE Movement & Partitioning: Bioconcentration potential is low (BCF less than 100 or Log Kow less than 3). Log octanol/water partition coefficient (log Kow) is -1.36. Henry's Law Constant (H) is 6.0E-08 atm-m3/mol.

DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS DO NOT discharge to sewer. Wear appropriate personal protection. Take up with sand, vermiculite, or similar inert material. Dispose in accordance with federal, state and local regulations. 14. TRANSPORT INFORMATION U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Non-Bulk Not regulated by the US D.O.T.
