Delayed and immediate effects as well as chronic effects from short and long-term exposure
Conclusion/Summary : There are no data available on the mixture itself. This product either contains
formaldehyde or is capable of releasing formaldehyde above 0.5 ppm under certain
conditions. Formaldehyde is a known cancer hazard, a skin sensitizer and a
respiratory sensitizer. Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in
excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result in adverse health effects
such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on
the kidneys, liver and central nervous system. Symptoms and signs include
headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme
cases, loss of consciousness. Solvents may cause some of the above effects by
absorption through the skin. There is some evidence that repeated exposure to
organic solvent vapors in combination with constant loud noise can cause greater
hearing loss than expected from exposure to noise alone. Ingestion may cause
nausea, diarrhea and vomiting. This takes into account, where known, delayed and
immediate effects and also chronic effects of components from short-term and long-
term exposure by oral, inhalation and dermal routes of exposure and eye contact.
