HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE FACT SHEET

Common Name: COAL TAR NAPHTHA

CAS Number: 8030-30-6DOT Number: UN 2553---------------------------------------------------------------------------

HAZARD SUMMARY* Coal Tar Naphtha can affect you when breathed in and

by passing through your skin.* Coal Tar Naphtha should be handled with extreme

caution since it may contain Benzene, which is aCARCINOGEN.

* Exposure can cause you to become dizzy and lightheadedand to pass out.

* Coal Tar Naphtha can cause irritation of the skin.* Exposure to vapor can irritate the eyes, nose and throat.* Exposure may damage the nervous system.* Long-term exposure can cause drying and cracking of the

skin.* Coal Tar Naphtha is a fire hazard.

IDENTIFICATIONCoal Tar Naphtha is a reddish-brown to colorless liquid witha noticeable odor. It is used as a solvent in making paint.

REASON FOR CITATION* Coal Tar Naphtha is on the Hazardous Substance List

because it is regulated by OSHA and cited by NFPA, DOTand NIOSH.

* Definitions are provided on page 5.

HOW TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE BEINGEXPOSEDThe New Jersey Right to Know Act requires most employersto label chemicals in the workplace and requires publicemployers to provide their employees with information andtraining concerning chemical hazards and controls. Thefederal OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, 1910.1200,requires private employers to provide similar training andinformation to their employees.

RTK Substance number: 0518Date: March 1986 Revision: June 1994---------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Exposure to hazardous substances should be routinelyevaluated. This may include collecting personal and areaair samples. You can obtain copies of sampling resultsfrom your employer. You have a legal right to thisinformation under OSHA 1910.20.

* If you think you are experiencing any work-related healthproblems, see a doctor trained to recognize occupationaldiseases. Take this Fact Sheet with you.

WORKPLACE EXPOSURE LIMITSOSHA: The legal airborne permissible exposure limit

(PEL) is 100 ppm averaged over an 8-hourworkshift.

* The above exposure limits are for air levels only. Whenskin contact also occurs, you may be overexposed, eventhough air levels are less than the limits listed above.

WAYS OF REDUCING EXPOSURE* Where possible, enclose operations and use local exhaust

ventilation at the site of chemical release. If local exhaustventilation or enclosure is not used, respirators should beworn.

* Wear protective work clothing.* Wash thoroughly immediately after exposure to Coal Tar

Naphtha and at the end of the workshift.* Post hazard and warning information in the work area. In

addition, as part of an ongoing education and trainingeffort, communicate all information on the health andsafety hazards of Coal Tar Naphtha to potentiallyexposed workers.

COAL TAR NAPHTHA page 2 of 6

This Fact Sheet is a summary source of information of allpotential and most severe health hazards that may result fromexposure. Duration of exposure, concentration of thesubstance and other factors will affect your susceptibility toany of the potential effects described below.---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Acute Health EffectsThe following acute (short-term) health effects may occurimmediately or shortly after exposure to Coal Tar Naphtha:

* Contact with Coal Tar Naphtha can cause irritation ofthe skin.

* Exposure to the vapor can irritate the eyes, nose, andthroat.

* Exposure can cause you to become dizzy and lightheadedand to pass out.

Chronic Health EffectsThe following chronic (long-term) health effects can occur atsome time after exposure to Coal Tar Naphtha and can lastfor months or years:

Cancer Hazard* Coal Tar Naphtha may contain Benzene, a

CARCINOGEN in humans.* Many scientists believe there is no safe level of exposure

to a carcinogen. Such substances may also have thepotential for causing reproductive damage in humans.

Reproductive Hazard* According to the information presently available to the

New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services,Coal Tar Naphtha has not been tested for its ability toaffect reproduction.

Other Long-Term Effects* Exposure may damage the nervous system.* Long-term exposure can cause drying and cracking of the

skin.* This chemical has not been adequately evaluated to

determine whether brain or other nerve damage couldoccur with repeated exposure. However, many solventsand other petroleum-based chemicals have been shown tocause such damage. Effects may include reduced memoryand concentration, personality changes (withdrawal,irritability), fatigue, sleep disturbances, reducedcoordination, and/or effects on nerves supplying internalorgans (autonomic nerves) and/or nerves to the arms andlegs (weakness, "pins and needles").

MEDICAL

Medical TestingIf symptoms develop or overexposure is suspected, thefollowing may be useful:

* Exam of the nervous system.

Any evaluation should include a careful history of past andpresent symptoms with an exam. Medical tests that look fordamage already done are not a substitute for controllingexposure.

Request copies of your medical testing. You have a legalright to this information under OSHA 1910.20.

WORKPLACE CONTROLS AND PRACTICES

Unless a less toxic chemical can be substituted for ahazardous substance, ENGINEERING CONTROLS are themost effective way of reducing exposure. The best protectionis to enclose operations and/or provide local exhaustventilation at the site of chemical release. Isolatingoperations can also reduce exposure. Using respirators orprotective equipment is less effective than the controlsmentioned above, but is sometimes necessary.

In evaluating the controls present in your workplace,consider: (1) how hazardous the substance is, (2) how muchof the substance is released into the workplace and (3)whether harmful skin or eye contact could occur. Specialcontrols should be in place for highly toxic chemicals or whensignificant skin, eye, or breathing exposures are possible.

In addition, the following control is recommended:

* Where possible, automatically pump liquid Coal TarNaphtha from drums or other storage containers toprocess containers.

Good WORK PRACTICES can help to reduce hazardousexposures. The following work practices are recommended:

* Workers whose clothing has been contaminated by CoalTar Naphtha should change into clean clothing promptly.

* Do not take contaminated work clothes home. Familymembers could be exposed.

* Contaminated work clothes should be laundered byindividuals who have been informed of the hazards ofexposure to Coal Tar Naphtha.

* If there is the possibility of skin exposure, emergencyshower facilities should be provided.


* On skin contact with Coal Tar Naphtha, immediatelywash or shower to remove the chemical.

* Wash any areas of the body that may have contacted CoalTar Naphtha at the end of each workday, whether or notknown skin contact has occurred.

* Do not eat, smoke, or drink where Coal Tar Naphtha ishandled, processed, or stored, since the chemical can beswallowed. Wash hands carefully before eating orsmoking.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

WORKPLACE CONTROLS ARE BETTER THANPERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. However, forsome jobs (such as outside work, confined space entry, jobsdone only once in a while, or jobs done while workplacecontrols are being installed), personal protective equipmentmay be appropriate.

The following recommendations are only guidelines and maynot apply to every situation.

Clothing* Avoid skin contact with Coal Tar Naphtha. Wear

solvent-resistant gloves and clothing. Safety equipmentsuppliers/manufacturers can provide recommendations onthe most protective glove/clothing material for youroperation.

* All protective clothing (suits, gloves, footwear, headgear)should be clean, available each day, and put on beforework.

Eye Protection* Wear splash-proof chemical goggles and face shield when

working with liquid, unless full facepiece respiratoryprotection is worn.

Respiratory ProtectionIMPROPER USE OF RESPIRATORS IS DANGEROUS.Such equipment should only be used if the employer has awritten program that takes into account workplaceconditions, requirements for worker training, respirator fittesting and medical exams, as described in OSHA 1910.134.

* Where the potential exists for exposures over 100 ppm,use a MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied-air respiratorwith a full facepiece operated in the positive pressuremode or with a full facepiece, hood, or helmet in thecontinuous flow mode, or use a MSHA/NIOSH approvedself-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepieceoperated in pressure-demand or other positive pressuremode.

* Exposure to 10,000 ppm is immediately dangerous to lifeand health. If the possibility of exposure above10,000 ppm exists, use a MSHA/NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepieceoperated in continuous flow or other positive pressuremode.

HANDLING AND STORAGE

* Prior to working with Coal Tar Naphtha you should betrained on its proper handling and storage.

* Coal Tar Naphtha must be stored to avoid contact withSTRONG OXIDIZERS (such as CHLORINE andCHLORINE DIOXIDE) since violent reactions occur.

* Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, well-ventilatedarea away from HEAT, SPARKS, or FLAME.

* Sources of ignition, such as smoking and open flames, areprohibited where Coal Tar Naphtha is used, handled, orstored in a manner that could create a potential fire orexplosion hazard.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q: If I have acute health effects, will I later get chronichealth effects?

A: Not always. Most chronic (long-term) effects resultfrom repeated exposures to a chemical.

Q: Can I get long-term effects without ever having short-term effects?

A: Yes, because long-term effects can occur from repeatedexposures to a chemical at levels not high enough tomake you immediately sick.

Q: What are my chances of getting sick when I have beenexposed to chemicals?

A: The likelihood of becoming sick from chemicals isincreased as the amount of exposure increases. This isdetermined by the length of time and the amount ofmaterial to which someone is exposed.

Q: When are higher exposures more likely?A: Conditions which increase risk of exposure include

physical and mechanical processes (heating, pouring,spraying, spills and evaporation from large surface areassuch as open containers), and "confined space"exposures (working inside vats, reactors, boilers, smallrooms, etc.).


Q: Is the risk of getting sick higher for workers than forcommunity residents?

A: Yes. Exposures in the community, except possibly incases of fires or spills, are usually much lower thanthose found in the workplace. However, people in thecommunity may be exposed to contaminated water aswell as to chemicals in the air over long periods.Because of this, and because of exposure of children orpeople who are already ill, community exposures maycause health problems.

Q: Don't all chemicals cause cancer?A: No. Most chemicals tested by scientists are not cancer-

causing.

Endocrine Toxicity Definitionfrom the Health Effects section of Scorecard

Endocrine toxicity is defined as adverse effects on the structure and /or functioning of the endocrinesystem that result from exposure to chemical substances. The endocrine system is composed of manyorgans and glands that secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream, including the pituitary,hypothalamus, thyroid, adrenals, pancreas, thymus, ovaries, and testes. Once synthesized, hormones areconveyed to a target tissue, where they function as chemical messengers that transmit informationbetween cells. Hormone levels and interactions control normal physiological processes, maintaining thebody’s homeostasis. Because the endocrine system is complex, a toxicant may interfere at any of anumber of points along a hormone’s pathway of production, regulation, and action. Some chemicals mayinjure the glands that synthesize and secrete hormones, while others disrupt hormonal actions at thetarget organ. Compounds that are toxic to the endocrine system may cause diseases such ashypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus, hypoglycemia, reproductive disorders, and cancer.

A wide variety of toxic substances can disrupt the function of the endocrine system. For example,chemicals that resemble the hormone estrogen can bind to estrogen receptors located throughout the bodyand either mimic the natural hormone or inhibit its actions. Exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicalssuch as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and DDT have caused a host of toxic effects in wildlife,including impaired reproduction and development. Other endocrine toxicants, such as persistentorganochlorine pesticides and dioxins, are being studied for their possible role in promoting hormone-induced cancers (such as breast cancer) and in lowering sperm counts and male fertility.

Specific organs and glands in the endocrine system are known to be damaged by chemical toxicants.Several chemicals and drugs can be toxic to the cells of the pancreas that produce insulin. Exposure tothe rodenticide Vacor (N-3-pyridylmethyl-N’-p-nitrophenyl urea) can interfere with the secretion andfunction of pancreatic hormones, resulting in diabetes mellitus and hyperglycemia. Polyhydroxyphenolsand the therapeutic drug lithium can disrupt thyroid gland function and cause hypothyroidism and goiter.Endocrine and reproductive dysfunction have been reported in men exposed to inorganic lead. Chronicexposure to lead can cause direct testicular toxicity, followed by hypothalamic or pituitary glanddisturbances.

Neurotoxicity Definitionfrom the Health Effects section of Scorecard

Neurotoxicity is defined as adverse effects on the structure or functioning of the central and/or peripheralnervous system that result from exposure to chemical substances. Neurotoxicants can causemorphological changes that lead to generalized damage to nerve cells (neuronopathy), injury to axons(axonopathy), or destruction of the myelin sheath (myelinopathy). It is well established that exposure tocertain agricultural and industrial chemicals can damage the nervous system, resulting in neurologicaland behavioral dysfunction. Symptoms of neurotoxicity include muscle weakness, loss of sensation andmotor control, tremors, alterations in cognition, and impaired functioning of the autonomic nervoussystem

The central nervous system (CNS) is composed of the brain and spinal cord. It is responsible for thehigher functions of the nervous system (conditioned reflexes, learning, memory, judgment, and otherfunctions of the mind). Chemicals toxic to the CNS can induce confusion, fatigue, irritability, and otherbehavioral changes. Methyl mercury and lead are known CNS toxicants. Exposure to these metals canalso cause degenerative diseases of the brain (encephalopathy).

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes all the nerves not in the brain or spinal cord. These nervescarry sensory information and motor impulses. Damage to the nerve fibers of the PNS can disruptcommunication between the CNS and the rest of the body. The organic solvents carbon disulfide, n-hexane,and trichloroethylene can harm the PNS, resulting in weakness in the lower limbs, prickling ortingling in the limbs (paresthesia), and loss of coordination.

Exposure to chemical agents can trigger a wide range of adverse effects on the nervous system.Neurotoxic substances can alter the propagation of nerve impulses or the activity of neurotransmittersand can disrupt the maintenance of the myelin sheath or the synthesis of protein. As a result,neurotoxicological assessments require the administration of a battery of functional and observationaltests. Neurotoxicity in humans is most commonly measured by neurological tests that assess cognitive,sensory, and motor function.

Skin or Sense Organ Toxicity Definitionfrom the Health Effects section of Scorecard

Skin and sense organ toxicity is defined as adverse effects on the skin or sense organs that result fromexposure to chemical substances. The senses of smell, vision, hearing, and taste are referred to as thespecial senses. Sense organs may be injured by a variety of physical, chemical, and biological agents.The sense of smell can become impaired, for example, as a result of occupational exposure to the metalscadmium and nickel. A variety of chemicals that act both locally and systemically in the body can affectvision. Airborne chemicals such as inorganic irritant gases and vapors (ammonia, chlorine, hydrogensulfide, and sulfur dioxide) formaldehyde, and many organic solvents can cause external eye irritation,including conjunctivitis and keratitis, in some cases reducing visual acuity. Chemical substances caninduce auditory dysfunction as well. Occupational exposure to lead, for example, is associated withhearing loss.

The skin provides the body with a protective barrier, contains the nerves that support the sense of touch,and participates in the exchange of gases and liquids. When the skin is exposed to irritant compounds,symptoms of skin injury may occur: redness, inflammation, burning, and itching. Acute and chronic skindiseases that may result from contact with toxic agents include dermatitis, photosensitization, chloracne,urticaria, and cancer.

One of the most common chemically induced skin disorders is contact dermatitis, an inflammatoryreaction of the skin that is usually restricted to the exposed areas. Clinical signs may include reddening,edema, itching, or a burning sensation. Strongly alkaline and acidic substances such as sodiumhydroxide, sulfuric acid, and hydrofluoric acid are some of the irritants that can cause contact dermatitisand related disorders. A number of skin toxicants produce photosensitization, an abnormal reaction toultraviolet and/or visible radiation. Known photosensitizers include anthraquinone dyes, sulfanilamide,and coal tar derivatives (anthracene, pyridine, acridine, and phenanthrene). Chloracne is a severe andunusual form of acne that can be triggered by exposure to certain halogenated aromatic compounds, suchas polychlorinated dibenzo furans and dioxins. Finally, arsenic, coal tars, creosote oils, and ultravioletlight have been shown to induce skin cancer in humans.

Respiratory Toxicity Definitionfrom the Health Effects section of Scorecard

Respiratory toxicity is defined as adverse effects on the structure or functioning of the respiratory systemthat result from exposure to chemical substances. The respiratory tract consists of the nasal passages,pharynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. The chief function of the respiratory system is to ensure theefficient and effective exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood and the air. Respiratorytoxicants can produce a variety of acute and chronic pulmonary conditions, including local irritation,bronchitis, pulmonary edema, emphysema, and cancer.

It is well known that exposure to environmental and industrial chemicals can impair respiratory function.The air we breathe may contain toxic gases, vapors from solvents, aerosols, or particulate matter, all ofwhich can cause respiratory harm. For example, scientific evidence has shown that ozone and fineparticles pose a significant threat to respiratory health. Ground-level ozone, the main component insmog, causes breathing problems, aggravates asthma, and increases the severity and incidence ofrespiratory infections. More rarely, toxicants such as the herbicide paraquat may affect the respiratorytract after ingestion or dermal exposure.

Acute exposure to respiratory toxicants can trigger effects ranging from mild irritation to death byasphyxiation. Prolonged exposure to respiratory toxicants can cause structural damage to the lungs,resulting in chronic diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis, emphysema, and cancer. Pulmonary fibrosis is aserious lung disease in which airways become restricted or inflamed, leading to loss of elasticity anddifficulty in breathing. It can be caused by exposure to coal dust, aluminum, beryllium, and carbides oftungsten. Emphysema, a degenerative and potentially fatal disease, is characterized by the inability of thelungs to fully expand and contract. The most common cause of emphysema is heavy cigarette smoking,but the disease can also be induced by exposure to aluminum, cadmium oxide, ozone, and nitrogenoxides. In addition, several toxicants are known to cause respiratory cancer. Examples ofwell-established human lung carcinogens are cigarette smoke, asbestos, arsenic, and nickel.

Gastrointestinal or Liver Toxicity Definitionsfrom the Health Effects section of Scorecard

Gastrointestinal and liver toxicity is defined as adverse effects on the structure and/or functioning of thegastrointestinal tract, liver, or gall bladder that result from exposure to chemical substances. The liverfunctions as a center for metabolism, processing chemicals we are exposed to so they can be utilized,detoxified, or excreted. While chemicals absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract are always processed bythe liver, toxicants that enter the body through other routes of exposure can also reach the liver via itsblood supply from the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The liver is frequently subject to injury inducedby chemicals, called hepatotoxins, because of its role as the body's principal site of metabolism.

Necrosis, or liver cell death, is a common effect of acute exposure to hepatotoxic chemicals likeberyllium, phosphorus, and urethane. The necrosis can be localized in specific areas of the liver or bemore widespread. The liver is usually able to recover from necrosis because of its remarkableregenerative capacity. Exposure to hepatotoxic substances can also cause fatty liver (steatosis), hepatitis,jaundice, cholestasis, chronic liver damage (cirrhosis), and cancer. Carbon tetrachloride and relatedchemicals, such as chloroform, are linked to steatosis, necrosis, and cirrhosis of the liver. The mostfrequent cause of cirrhosis, however, is the habitual consumption of large quantities of alcohol. Cancer ofthe liver has been associated with occupational exposures to arsenic, copper, and vinyl chloride.

The gastrointestinal, or digestive, tract is composed of the esophagus, stomach, pancreas, and small andlarge intestines. The gastrointestinal tract is the site of entry for chemicals that are ingested. Exposure tochemicals that are toxic to the digestive tract can cause anorexia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps,and diarrhea. There are four major types of tissue response to gastrointestinal injury from toxic agents:ulceration, necrosis, inflammation, and proliferation, including cancer. Some chemicals that causegastrointestinal injury are halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons, including chlorobenzene andhexachlorobenzene, and such metals as lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium. Nitrosamines have beenshown to cause colon cancer in humans.

About the Chemicals: Data Descriptionsin the About the Chemicals section of Scorecard

Human Health Hazards

Exposure to toxic chemicals can cause any of several negative effects on human health, such as cancer orbirth defects. Scorecard highlights the specific health hazards that each particular chemical poses.Twelve separate categories of health effects are covered. Some chemicals are widely recognized to behazardous, while others are only suspected, so Scorecard always distinguishes between "recognized" and"suspected" health threats.

Hazard Rankings

Toxic chemicals can pose threats in many ways. How bad a particular chemical is depends on whetheryou are most concerned about its effects on humans, or its persistence in the environment, its damagingeffects on ecosystems, or another factor. Scorecard shows how a chemical stacks up comparatively underdifferent ranking systems. It then spotlights the chemicals that are most dangerous to human health andto the environment.


Why is industry using a toxic chemical in the first place? Scorecard uses official U.S. EPA informationto tell you what each chemical is used for in various industries. If a chemical contributes to indoor airpollution, Scorecard points out the types of consumer products it may be found in. It also tells you if achemical is one of the most widespread chemicals in commercial use (that is, an industrial chemical withannual U.S. production of more than one million pounds).

Profile of Releases and Waste Generation by Industrial Sector

What types of industries are responsible for releasing a particular chemical to the environment or forgenerating the greatest amount of chemical waste? Based on company reports to the EPA Toxics ReleaseInventory, Scorecard shows you the manufacturing sectors that release the largest quantities of aparticular chemical or that generate the largest quantities as production-related waste.

Regulatory Coverage

Is government doing anything to control a toxic chemical? Scorecard tells you if a chemical is coveredby federal environmental laws, or by California state laws (because California has unusually effectiveand innovative laws such as Proposition 65). It also tells you what chemicals are major environmentalhazards because they damage the ozone layer, contribute to global warming, or persist in theenvironment.

If an industrial chemical is allowed by law to be released into the environment, most people assume thatit must have been tested and evaluated for its potential risks. Unfortunately, this is simply not true.Keeping chemical hazards under control requires information about what kinds of hazards each chemicalposes. If the basic tests to check on a chemical's toxicity haven't been conducted, or if the results aren'tpublicly available, current laws tend to treat that chemical as if it were perfectly safe. For the chemicalsbeing used in large quantities, Scorecard tells you whether or not eight basic types of tests for health andecological effects have actually been conducted, based on the public record.


Could government assess a chemical's safety or risk? For most of the important industrial chemicalsin U.S. commerce, government lacks the information to draw any scientifically based conclusion aboutthe degree of risk--or lack of risk--that a chemical may pose when used. For every chemical in thedatabase, Scorecard tells you whether or not the information needed to assess chemical risk is available.If it isn't, no one can accurately claim the chemical is "safe."The key information for assessing a chemical's risk. To be able to assess the risk or safety of achemical being released into the environment, two different kinds of information are needed: how toxicthe chemical is, and how much people are actually being exposed to the chemical. For each chemical,Scorecard tells you whether or not there are risk assessment values (measuring its toxicity) availablefrom the U.S. EPA or other authoritative scientific and regulatory agencies, and if so, what the valuesare. Scorecard also tells you whether information about human exposure to the chemical is beingcollected by national monitoring programs. Scorecard also directs you to sources of information aboutchemical contamination in your area.

Links

To make it easier to get more information on the hazards posed by a particular chemical, Scorecardpoints you to other web sites that provide publicly accessible fact sheets and other detailed technicalinformation on chemicals. If there is a major toxicological profile of a chemical available online, it israrely more than a click away.Chemical Classes Scorecard tracks the classes that chemicals belong to and tells you which chemicalsare members of which class. If you can't find something about one specific chemical, Scorecard can leadyou to related chemicals for which more information may be available.Other Web Sites Scorecard provides links to other database-backed web sites for further online researchinto chemical hazards.

High Production Volume (HPV) Chemicalsfrom Scorecard

DESCRIPTION

High production volume chemicals have annual production and/or importation volumes above 1 millionpounds. In the U.S., 2,979 chemicals (excluding polymers) out of approximately 70,000 chemicals incommerce are used in such substantial quantities. While there are no authoritative estimates of theamount of total chemical use in the U.S., 4.4 to 7.1 trillion pounds of HPV chemicals areproduced/imported annually.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) also maintains a list of 4,102HPV chemicals. The OECD list includes chemicals which have annual production volumes greater than1 thousand metric tonnes (2.2 million pounds) in more than one economically developed country.

REFERENCES

The U.S. list of HPV chemicals was generated from company reports of chemical use in 1990, submittedin response to the Toxic Substances Control Act Inventory Update Rule. Companies are only required toreport their chemical production/imports as a range. The EPA is currently working on updating theirHPV list using 1994 inventory reports.

Note that chemicals used as pesticides, food additive, drugs and cosmetics are not included in EPA'sHPV list.

*EYE CONTACT: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.

*INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If the victim is conscious and not convulsing, give 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute the chemical and IMMEDIATELY call a hospital or poison control center. Be prepared to transport the victim to a



hospital if advised by a physician. If the victim is convulsing or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth, ensure that the victim's airway is open and lay the victim on his/her side with the head lower than the body. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim to a hospital.

*SYMPTOMS: Mild irritation of eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Ingestion causes depressi and lethargy, confusion and disorientation, visual and auditory hallucinations perceptual distortions, delusions and emotional detachment.

*FIREFIGHTING: Not available

Web Sitesthat offer searchable chemical databases, recommended by Scorecard

If you want more detailed information about a chemical than Scorecard provides, there are severalon-line and library resources Scorecard recommends for further research.

ON-LINE CHEMICAL DATABASES

CambridgeSoft Chemfinderhttp://chemfinder.camsoft.com/

Chemfinder gives basic physico-chemical data and molecular structures for chemicals, and provides linksto international data sources addressing specific chemicals.

Hazardous Substances Data Bankhttp://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/

HSDB focuses on the toxicology of potentially hazardous chemicals, and includes peer-reviewedinformation on human exposure, industrial hygiene, emergency handling procedures, environmental fate,and regulatory requirements.

University of Akron Hazardous Chemicals Databasehttp://ull.chemistry.uakron.edu/erd/

The Hazardous Chemicals Database provides physical data on chemicals and links to Department ofTransportation safety guides that are valuable for emergency response.

BIBLIOGRAPHIC RESOURCES ON CHEMICAL TOXICITY

Scorecard provides qualitative summaries of the health hazards posed by a chemical (e.g., it is asuspected neurotoxicant), but not direct access to supporting toxicological data. These scientific studiesare abstracted in several toxicity databases, which are available in libraries, from commercial vendors,and sometimes on-line. The major toxicity databases include:

The Registry of Toxic Effects of Chemicals Substances (RTECS)RTECS is a database of toxicological information compiled by the National Institute for OccupationalSafety and Health. It contains summary information about the types of health effects chemicals can causeand the concentrations at which toxicity is known to occur. It is available from several commercialvendors at http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/rtecs.html, and can often be found at major public or universitylibraries.

TOXLINEFree access to the National Library of Medicine's toxicology-specific database of abstracts, referencejournal articles, and reports is available at http://www.medscape.com/misc/FormToxlineInfLive.html
