Any material aspirated during vomiting may produce lung injury. Therefore emesis should not be induced mechanically or pharmacologically. Mechanical means should be used if it is considered
necessary to evacuate the stomach contents; these include gastric lavage after endotracheal intubation. If spontaneous vomiting has occurred after ingestion, the patient should be monitored for
difficult breathing, as adverse effects of aspiration into the lungs may be delayed up to 48 hours.
For acute or short term repeated exposures to petroleum distillates or related hydrocarbons:
Primary threat to life, from pure petroleum distillate ingestion and/or inhalation, is respiratory failure.
Patients should be quickly evaluated for signs of respiratory distress (e.g. cyanosis, tachypnoea, intercostal retraction, obtundation) and given oxygen. Patients with inadequate tidal volumes or
poor arterial blood gases (pO2 50 mm Hg) should be intubated.
Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported; intravenous lines and cardiac monitors should
be established in obviously symptomatic patients. The lungs excrete inhaled solvents, so that hyperventilation improves clearance.
A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax.
Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm because of potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled cardioselective bronchodilators (e.g.
Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred agents, with aminophylline a second choice.
Lavage is indicated in patients who require decontamination; ensure use of cuffed endotracheal tube in adult patients. [Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology]
Treat symptomatically.
for naphthalene intoxication: Naphthalene requires hepatic and microsomal activation prior to the production of toxic effects. Liver microsomes catalyse the initial synthesis of the reactive
1,2-epoxide intermediate which is subsequently oxidised to naphthalene dihydrodiol and alpha-naphthol. The 2-naphthoquinones are thought to produce haemolysis, the 1,2-naphthoquinones are
thought to be responsible for producing cataracts in rabbits, and the glutathione-adducts of naphthalene-1,2-oxide are probably responsible for pulmonary toxicity. Suggested treatment regime:
Induce emesis and/or perform gastric lavage with large amounts of warm water where oral poisoning is suspected.
Instill a saline cathartic such as magnesium or sodium sulfate in water (15 to 30g).
Demulcents such as milk, egg white, gelatin, or other protein solutions may be useful after the stomach is emptied but oils should be avoided because they promote absorption.
If eyes/skin contaminated, flush with warm water followed by the application of a bland ointment.
Severe anaemia, due to haemolysis, may require small repeated blood transfusions, preferably with red cells from a non-sensitive individual.
Where intravascular haemolysis, with haemoglobinuria occurs, protect the kidneys by promoting a brisk flow of dilute urine with, for example, an osmotic diuretic such as mannitol. It may be useful
to alkalinise the urine with small amounts of sodium bicarbonate but many researchers doubt whether this prevents blockage of the renal tubules.
Use supportive measures in the case of acute renal failure. GOSSELIN, SMITH HODGE: Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, 5th Ed.

Oxidation in the presence of transition metal salts not only accelerates but also selectively decomposes the hydroperoxides.
Hock-rearrangement by the influence of strong acids converts the hydroperoxides to hemiacetals. Peresters formed from the hydroperoxides undergo
Criegee rearrangement easily.
Alkali metals accelerate the oxidation while CO2 as co-oxidant enhances the selectivity.
Microwave conditions give improved yields of the oxidation products.
Photo-oxidation products may occur following reaction with hydroxyl radicals and NOx - these may be components of photochemical smogs.
Oxidation of Alkylaromatics: T.S.S Rao and Shubhra Awasthi: E-Journal of Chemistry Vol 4, No. 1, pp 1-13 January 2007
Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic rings and strong oxidising agents.
Aromatics can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds.
CARE: Water in contact with heated material may cause foaming or a steam explosion with possible severe burns from wide scattering of hot material.
Resultant overflow of containers may result in fire.

Exposure controls
Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed engineering controls can be highly
effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.
The basic types of engineering controls are:
Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.
Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and ventilation that strategically "adds" and
"removes" air in the work environment. Ventilation can remove or dilute an air contaminant if designed properly. The design of a ventilation system must match
the particular process and chemical or contaminant in use.
Employers may need to use multiple types of controls to prevent employee overexposure.
Local exhaust ventilation usually required. If risk of overexposure exists, wear approved respirator. Correct fit is essential to obtain adequate protection.
Supplied-air type respirator may be required in special circumstances. Correct fit is essential to ensure adequate protection.
An approved self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) may be required in some situations.
Provide adequate ventilation in warehouse or closed storage area. Air contaminants generated in the workplace possess varying "escape" velocities which, in
Appropriate engineering turn, determine the "capture velocities" of fresh circulating air required to effectively remove the contaminant.

Type of Contaminant: Air Speed:

grinding, abrasive blasting, tumbling, high speed wheel generated dusts (released at high initial velocity into zone of very high rapid 2.5-10 m/s (500-2000

Simple theory shows that air velocity falls rapidly with distance away from the opening of a simple extraction pipe. Velocity generally decreases with the square
of distance from the extraction point (in simple cases). Therefore the air speed at the extraction point should be adjusted, accordingly, after reference to
distance from the contaminating source. The air velocity at the extraction fan, for example, should be a minimum of 1-2 m/s (200-400 f/min) for extraction of
solvents generated in a tank 2 meters distant from the extraction point. Other mechanical considerations, producing performance deficits within the extraction
apparatus, make it essential that theoretical air velocities are multiplied by factors of 10 or more when extraction systems are installed or used.

damage to the health of the individual.
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either produces inflammation of the skin in a substantial number of individuals following
direct contact, and/or produces significant inflammation when applied to the healthy intact skin of animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation being present
twenty-four hours or more after the end of the exposure period. Skin irritation may also be present after prolonged or repeated exposure; this may result in a
form of contact dermatitis (nonallergic). The dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema) which may progress to
blistering (vesiculation), scaling and thickening of the epidermis. At the microscopic level there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer of the skin
Skin Contact (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the epidermis.
The material may accentuate any pre-existing dermatitis condition
Repeated exposure may cause skin cracking, flaking or drying following normal handling and use.
Skin contact with the material may damage the health of the individual; systemic effects may result following absorption.
Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material
Entry into the blood-stream through, for example, cuts, abrasions, puncture wounds or lesions, may produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the
skin prior to the use of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
Eye When applied to the eye(s) of animals, the material produces severe ocular lesions which are present twenty-four hours or more after instillation.
On the basis, primarily, of animal experiments, concern has been expressed that the material may produce carcinogenic or mutagenic effects; in respect of the
available information, however, there presently exists inadequate data for making a satisfactory assessment.
Long-term exposure to respiratory irritants may result in disease of the airways involving difficult breathing and related systemic problems.
Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce cumulative health effects involving organs or biochemical systems.
Chronic In a two-year inhalation study, groups of mice were exposed at 0, 10 or 30 ppm naphthalene, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week for 103 weeks. Female mice showed an
increase of pulmonary alveolar/bronchiolar adenomas at 30 ppm. There was no increase in the incidence of tumours in male mice. Naphthalene inhalation was
associated with an increase in the incidence and severity of chronic inflammation, metaplasia of the olfactory epithelium, and hyperplasia of the respiratory
epithelium in the nose, and chronic inflammation of the lungs of both sexes.

Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ceases. This may be due to a non-allergenic condition known
as reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) which can occur following exposure to high levels of highly irritating compound. Key criteria for the
diagnosis of RADS include the absence of preceding respiratory disease, in a non-atopic individual, with abrupt onset of persistent asthma-like symptoms
within minutes to hours of a documented exposure to the irritant. A reversible airflow pattern, on spirometry, with the presence of moderate to severe
bronchial hyperreactivity on methacholine challenge testing and the lack of minimal lymphocytic inflammation, without eosinophilia, have also been included
in the criteria for diagnosis of RADS. RADS (or asthma) following an irritating inhalation is an infrequent disorder with rates related to the concentration
of and duration of exposure to the irritating substance. Industrial bronchitis, on the other hand, is a disorder that occurs as result of exposure due to high
concentrations of irritating substance (often particulate in nature) and is completely reversible after exposure ceases. The disorder is characterised by
dyspnea, cough and mucus production.
For dichlorotoluenes:
2,6-Dichlorotoluene is moderately toxic in a repeated dose study (i.e. liver, kidney, thymus) and reproductive/ developmental toxicity study (maternal toxicity).
Repeat dose toxicity: In a combined repeat dose and reproductive/developmental toxicity screening test, using 2,6-dichlorotoluene both male and female
rats showed histopathological changes in liver, kidney and thymus, and maternal toxicity was observed. The no observed effect levels (NOEL) were obtained
as 30 mg/kg/day for repeated dose toxicity and 100 mg/kg/day for reproductive toxicity.
DICHLOROTOLUENE In a combined repeat dose and reproductive/developmental toxicity screening test, using 2,4-dichlorotoluene, dose dependent salivation was found in all
treated groups. Toxicological significant changes in haematological and blood chemical examinations were found at the highest dose (e.g. decrease of
platelet count). Increased liver and kidney weights were also found at the same level with pathological remarks (e.g. centrilobular swelling of hepatocytes).
For reproductive/developmental end-points, a decrease of fertility was found in conjunction with normal copulation but with low pregnancy at the highest
dose. However, no histopathological change related to infertility was seen in the paternal organs. Decreases of pup body weights were noted in the highest
dose group during the lactation period. Therefore, the overall NOEL was less than 12.5 mg/kg/day for repeated dose toxicity and 79 mg/kg/day for
reproductive toxicity.
Mutagenicity/ genotoxicity: 2,4-Dichlorotoluene showed no genotoxic effects in bacteria and in a chromosomal aberration test in vitro..
2,4-Dichlorotoluene showed negative results in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA at concentrations
up to 1 mg/plate with or without metabolic activation system.
A chromosomal aberration test in line with Guidelines for Screening Mutagenicity Testing of Chemicals (Japan) and OECD Test Guideline 473 was
conducted using cultured Chinese Hamster lung (CHL/IU) cells exposed to 2,4-dichlorotoluene. No structural chromosomal aberrations or polyploidy
were observed up to a maximum concentration (90 ug/ml) in both continuous treatment and short-term treatment with or without an exogenous metabolic
activation system.
2,6-Dichlorotoluene had no genotoxic effects in bacteria and in chromosomal aberration test in vitro

o-Chlorotoluene, tested according to OECD Guideline 406, is not sensitizing to the skin of guinea pigs.
The NOEL for repeated dosing (3 months) by gavage in rats is 20 mg/kg bw. In higher dosage (80 or 320 mg/kg bw) unspecific signs of toxicity were
observed, e.g. reduced body weight gain in male animals, elevated BUN, elevated WBC count, reduced prothrombin time.
The NOEL for repeated dosing via capsule (3 months) in dogs is 20 mg/kg bw. In higher dosage (80 mg/kg bw) one animal showed vomiting, and red
blood was detected in faeces, which might be due to the slightly irritating property of o-chlorotoluene.
In range finding study tests, the LOAELs after inhalation were 4 mg/l (approx. 4000 mg/m3, 14 d) in rats and 8 mg/l (approx. 8000 mg/m3, 23 d) in rabbits.

In the rat study, males and females received 2- chlorotoluene 0, 20, 80, or 320 mg/kg bw solution by gavage for 103- 104 days. Gross and histological
evaluation revealed that the administration of o-chlorotoluene to rats did not produce any treatment -related pathology in these organs. Histopathologic

Fatty acid amides (FAA) are ubiquitous in household and commercial environments. The most common of these are based on coconut oil fatty acids
alkanolamides. These are the most widely studied in terms of human exposure.
Fatty acid diethanolamides (C8-C18) are classified by Comite Europeen des Agents de Surface et de leurs Intermediaires Organiques (CESIO) as
Irritating (Xi) with the risk phrases R38 (Irritating to skin) and R41 (Risk of serious damage to eyes). Fatty acid monoethanolamides are classified as
Irritant (Xi) with the risk phrases R41
Several studies of the sensitization potential of cocoamide diethanolamide (DEA) indicate that this FAA induces occupational allergic contact dermatitis
and a number of reports on skin allergy patch testing of cocoamide DEA have been published. These tests indicate that allergy to cocoamide DEA is
becoming more common.
Alkanolamides are manufactured by condensation of diethanolamine and the methylester of long chain fatty acids. Several alkanolamides (especially
secondary alkanolamides) are susceptible to nitrosamine formation which constitutes a potential health problem. Nitrosamine contamination is possible
either from pre-existing contamination of the diethanolamine used to manufacture cocoamide DEA, or from nitrosamine formation by nitrosating agents in
formulations containing cocoamide DEA. According to the Cosmetic Directive (2000) cocoamide DEA must not be used in products with nitrosating
agents because of the risk of formation of N-nitrosamines. The maximum content allowed in cosmetics is 5% fatty acid dialkanolamides, and the maximum
content of N-nitrosodialkanolamines is 50 mg/kg. The preservative 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol is a known nitrosating agent for secondary and tertiary
DIETHANOLAMINE amines or amides. Model assays have indicated that 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol may lead to the N-nitrosation of diethanolamine forming the
COCOATE carcinogenic compound, N-nitrosodiethanolamine which is a potent liver carcinogen in rats (IARC 1978).
Several FAAs have been tested in short-term genotoxicity assays. No indication of any potential to cause genetic damage was seen Lauramide DEA was
tested in mutagenicity assays and did not show mutagenic activity in Salmonella typhimurium strains or in hamster embryo cells. Cocoamide DEA was not
mutagenic in strains of Salmonella typhimurium when tested with or without metabolic activation

food packaging); in EVA copolymers for food packaging; lubricants for manufacture of metallic food packaging; irradiation of prepared foods; release
agents in manufacture of food packaging materials, food contact surface of paper and paperboard; cellophane in food packaging; closure sealing gaskets;
and release agents in polymeric resins and petroleum wax. The low order of toxicity indicates that the use of FND Amides does not pose a significant
hazard to human health.
The differences in chain length, degree of saturation of the carbon chains, source of the natural oils, or addition of an amino group in the chain would not
be expected to have an impact on the toxicity profile. This conclusion is supported by a number of studies in the FND family of chemicals (amines,
cationics, and amides as separate categories) that show no differences in the length or degree of saturation of the alkyl substituents and is also supported
by the limited toxicity of these long-chain substituted chemicals
The Fatty nitrogen-derived amides (FND amides) comprise four categories:
Subcategory I: Substituted Amides
Subcategory II: Fatty Acid Reaction Products with Amino Compounds (Note: Subcategory II chemicals, in many cases, contain Subcategory I chemicals
as major components)
Subcategory III: Imidazole Derivatives
Subcategory IV: FND Amphoterics
Acute Toxicity: The low acute oral toxicity of the FND Amides is well established across all Subcategories by the available data. The limited acute toxicity
of these chemicals is also confirmed by four acute dermal and two acute inhalation studies
Repeated Dose and Reproductive Toxicity: Two subchronic toxicity studies demonstrating low toxicity are available for Subcategory I chemicals. In
addition, a 5-day repeated dose study for a third chemical confirmed the minimal toxicity of these chemicals. Since the Subcategory I chemicals are major
components of many Subcategory II chemicals, and based on the low repeat-dose toxicity of the amino compounds (e.g. diethanolamine, triethanolamine)
used for producing the Subcategory II derivatives, the Subcategory I repeat-dose toxicity studies adequately support Subcategory II.
Two subchronic toxicity studies in Subcategory III confirmed the low order of repeat dose toxicity for the FND Amides Imidazole derivatives. For
Subcategory IV, two subchronic toxicity studies for one of the chemicals indicated a low
order of repeat-dose toxicity for the FND amphoteric salts similar to that seen in the other categories.
Genetic Toxicity in vitro: Based on the lack of effect of one or more chemicals in each subcategory, adequate data for mutagenic activity as measured by
the Salmonella reverse mutation assay exist for all of the subcategories.
Developmental Toxicity: A developmental toxicity study in Subcategory I and in Subcategory IV and a third study for a chemical in Subcategory III are
available. The studies indicate these chemicals are not developmental toxicants, as expected based on their structures, molecular weights, physical
properties and knowledge of similar chemicals. As above for repeat-dose toxicity, the data for Subcategory I are adequate to support Subcategory II.
In evaluating potential toxicity of the FND Amides chemicals, it is also useful to review the available data for the related FND Cationic and FND Amines
Category chemicals. Acute oral toxicity studies (approximately 80 studies for 40 chemicals in the three categories) provide LD50 values from approximately
400 to 10,000 mg/kg with no apparent organ specific toxicity. Similarly, repeated dose toxicity studies (approximately 35 studies for 15 chemicals) provide
NOAELs between 10 and 100 mg/kg/day for rats and slightly lower for dogs. More than 60 genetic toxicity studies (in vitro bacterial and mammalian cells
as well as in vivo studies) indicated no mutagenic activity among more than 30 chemicals tested. For reproductive evaluations, 14 studies evaluated
reproductive endpoints and/or reproductive organs for 11 chemicals, and 15 studies evaluated developmental toxicity for 13 chemicals indicating no
reproductive or developmental effects for the FND group as a whole.
No significant acute toxicological data identified in literature search.

The (M)SDS is a Hazard Communication tool and should be used to assist in the Risk Assessment. Many factors determine whether the reported Hazards are Risks in the workplace or other
settings. Risks may be determined by reference to Exposures Scenarios. Scale of use, frequency of use and current or available engineering controls must be considered.
