EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: white viscous liquid.
Caution! May cause eye and skin irritation. May cause respiratory and digestive tract irritation.
Target Organs: None known.
Potential Health Effects
Eye: May cause mild eye irritation.
Skin: Prolonged and/or repeated contact may cause irritation and/or dermatitis.
Ingestion: May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Causes gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal.
