Chemical Composition/Ingredients
The GHS is an acronym for The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals. The GHS is a system for standardizing and harmonizing the classification and labelling of chemicals. Chemicals are associated with codes that define their health, physical and environmental hazards.This universal hazard communication system was developed to ensure that employers, employees and consumers are provided with adequate, practical, reliable and comprehensible information on the hazards of chemicals, so that they can take effective preventive and protective measure for their own health and safety.

The GHS classifications for chemicals associated with products in this database may be viewed by selecting the "Advanced" button on the Chemical Ingredients tables. Since this is a work in progress, GHS classifications may not be shown for all chemical ingredients.-

Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview
Danger. Highly flammable liquid and vapor. Harmful if swallowed, in contact with skin and if inhaled. May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. Causes serious eye irritation May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Suspected of causing cancer. Causes damage to eyes.
Potential Health Effects
Eye Contact: Liquid, vapors or mist may cause irritation of the eyes with persistent conjunctivitis, as seen as slight excess redness or conjunctiva. May cause permanent injury if not removed promptly.
Skin Contact: Prolonged contact with the skin may cause irritation with redness and defatting of the skin and absorption of harmful amounts of methanol.
Inhalation: May cause irritation of the nose and throat with headache, particularly from mists. High vapor concentrations may produce euphoria, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, tingling, numbness and shooting pains in the hands and forearms, tremors, convulsions, visual disturbances, coma, respiratory arrest and death.
Ingestion: Contains methanol. May cause abdominal discomfort or pain, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, confusion, drunken behavior, central nervous system depression, coma and death. Visual effects from methanol include blurred vision, double vision, changes in color perception, restriction of visual fields and complete blindness. With massive overdoses of methanol, liver, kidney and heart muscle injury have been described. There may be a delay of several hours between swallowing methanol and the onset of signs and symptoms. 60-200 ml of methanol is a fatal dose for most adults. Ingestion of as little as 10 ml may cause blindness. Aspiration of the petroleum hydrocarbons in this product during ingestion or vomiting may cause lung inflammation and damage. -
Chronic health effects
From SDS:
Prolonged or repeated inhalation exposure may produce signs of central nervous system involvement, including nausea, vomiting, headache, ringing in the ears, dizziness, vertigo, cloudy and double vision. Prolonged overexposure to methanol at levels of 800-1000 ppm may result in severe eye damage. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged overexposure to petroleum distillates with adverse liver, kidney and bone marrow effects and with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the product may be harmful or fatal. -
Carcinogenicity
Naphthalene and cumene are listed as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B) by IARC and is reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen by NTP. None of the other components greater than 0.1 percent are listed as a carcinogen by IARC, NTP, ACGIH, or OSHA. -
Handling information
Harmful or Fatal if Swallowed! Do not swallow. Avoid eye and skin contact. Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after use. Flammable Liquid! Do not smoke during use. Do not reuse empty containers unless properly cleaned. Empty containers retain product residues and may be hazardous. Do not flame cut, drill, weld, etc. on or near empty containers, even empty. Keep container away from heat, sparks, open flames and all other sources of ignition. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area. -
Disposal information
Dispose of product in accordance with all local, state/provincial and federal regulations. -

First Aid
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists.Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Immediately wash contacted area thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, get medical attention.Inhalation: Remove the victim to fresh air. If breathing has stopped administer artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, have medical personnel administer oxygen. Get immediate medical attention.Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention. Immediately call local poison control center or go to an emergency department. Never give anything by mouth to or induce vomiting in an unconscious or drowsy person. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration into the lungs.Notes to Physician: If clinically indicated, stomach contents should be evacuated carefully in a manner which avoids aspiration. A serious potential effect is aspiration pneumonitis, which may lead to non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema. The patient should be observed for signs of lung injury if aspiration is suspected. The combination of visual disturbances, metabolic acidosis and an osmol gap is evidence of methanol poisoning. Ethanol is antidotal and its early administration may block the formation of toxic metabolites of methanol. The objective is to rapidly achieve and maintain a blood ethanol level of approximately 100 mg/dl by giving a loading dose of ethanol followed by a maintenance dose. Intravenous administration of ethanol is the preferred route. Ethanol blood levels should be checked frequently. Hemodialysis may be required. 4-Methylpyrazole, a potent inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase, has been used therapeutically to decrease the metabolic consequences of methanol poisoning. Consult with a medical toxicologist or your poison control center.
