Effects of Overexposure, Stoddard Solvent:
Short Term Exposure
Inhalation: Causes irritation of the eyes and respiratory tract. Exposure to levels
above 2,400 mg/m3 may cause headache, dizziness and nose and throat irritation.
More severe exposures may cause nausea and vomiting, a feeling of intoxication, weakness, muscle twitches and in extreme cases convulsions, unconsciousness
and death.
Long Term Exposure
Prolonged or repeated contact with liquid may cause defatting of the skin with
drying, irritation, and skin ulcers. Exposure to vapor may cause eye, nose and
throat irritation, fatigue, headaches, anemia, jaundice, and damage to the liver and
bone marrow. In animals: kidney damage. Repeated exposure may cause a rare
reaction in some people that destroys blood cells (aplastic anemia). This can be
fatal. Many petroleum-based solvents have been shown to cause brain and/or
nerve damage. Effects may include reduced memory and concentration,
personality changes, fatigue, sleep disturbances, reduced coordination, effects on
the autonomic nerves and/or nerves to the limbs.
Carcinogenicity: The following chemicals comprise 0.1% or more of this mixture and are listed and/or classified as
carcinogens or potential carcinogens by NTP, IARC, OSHA, or ACGIH.

Routes of Entry:
Inhalation Skin Contact Eye Contact Ingestion
Exposure to this material may effect the following organs:
Blood Eyes Kidneys Liver Nervous System
Effects of Overexposure, Xylenes (o-,m-,p- isomers):
Short Term Exposure
Inhalation: Exposure to vapor can be irritation to the nose and throat. Inhalation
of vapor at concentrations above 200 ppm or 3 — 5 minutes can lead to xylene
intoxication. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. If
exposure should continue, central nervous system depression characterized by
shallow breathing and weak pulse can occur. Levels of 230 ppm for 15 minutes
may cause lightheadedness without loss of equilibrium. Reversible liver and
kidney damage in man has followed exposure to sudden high concentrations of
vapor. Such high levels may also give rise to lung congestion. Exposure to
extremely high concentrations (10,000 ppm or more) of xylene vapors can lead to
a strong narcotic effect with symptoms of slurred speech, stupor fatigue,
confusion, unconsciousness, coma, and possible death.
Long Term Exposure
Inhalation of xylene vapor and skin contact with liquid are the two most probable
routes of long term exposure. Symptoms of inhalation are dizziness, headache
and nausea. Long term exposure has been associated with liver and kidney
damage, intestinal tract disturbances and central nervous system depression.
Prolonged contact with skin can lead to irritation, dryness and cracking. Repeated
exposure can cause poor memory, difficulty in concentration, and other brain
effects. It can also cause damage to the eye surface.
Effects of Overexposure, Carbon Black:
Short Term Exposure
Inhalation may cause irritation to respiratory tract. Skin contact may cause
irritation. Eye contact may cause irritation.
Long Term Exposure
Exposure to levels well above 3.5 mg/m3 for several months may result in
damage to the skin and nails, temporary or permanent damage to the lungs and
breathing passages, and adversely affect the heart. Carbon Black containing PAH
greater than 0.1% should be considered a suspect carcinogen. Lungs may be
affected by repeated or prolonged exposure at very high concentrations: Some
Carbon blacks may contain compounds which are carcinogenic and as organic

care should be taken to avoid exposure to such extracts. Lung effects remain
controversial and may be due to contaminants. It is probable that minor effects
reported are non-specific effects associated with exposure to nuisance dusts in
general. Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are reportedly present in some carbon
blacks. Depending on the process of manufacture, there are variations in their

Routes of Entry:
Inhalation Skin Contact Eye Contact Ingestion
Exposure to this material may effect the following organs:
Blood Eyes Kidneys Liver Lungs Nervous System Skin
Effects of Overexposure, Ethylbenzene:
Short Term Exposure
Ethyl benzene irritates the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Exposure to high
concentrations can cause dizziness, lightheadedness and unconsciousness. Very
high exposures (above the OEL) can cause difficult breathing, narcosis, coma,
and even death. Swallowing the liquid may cause aspiration into the lungs,
resulting in chemical pneumonitis. May affect the central nervous system.
Concentration of 200 ppm can cause irritation.
Long Term Exposure
Repeated or prolonged exposure to the skin may cause drying, scaling and
blistering. May cause kidney disease, liver disease, chronic respiratory disease,
skin disease, as follows: EB is not nephrotoxic. Concern is expressed because the
kidney is the primary route of excretion of EB and its metabolites. EB is not
hepatotoxic. Since EB is metabolized by the liver, concern is expressed for these
tissues. Exacerbation of pulmonary pathology might occur following exposure to
EB. Individuals with impaired pulmonary function might be at risk. EB is a
defating agent and may cause dermatitis following prolonged exposure.
Individuals with preexisting skin problems may be more sensitive to EB. There is limited evidence that EB may damage the developing fetus, and may cause
mutations.
Effects of Overexposure, Xylenes (o-,m-,p- isomers):
Short Term Exposure
Inhalation: Exposure to vapor can be irritation to the nose and throat. Inhalation
of vapor at concentrations above 200 ppm or 3 — 5 minutes can lead to xylene
intoxication. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. If
exposure should continue, central nervous system depression characterized by
shallow breathing and weak pulse can occur. Levels of 230 ppm for 15 minutes
may cause lightheadedness without loss of equilibrium. Reversible liver and
kidney damage in man has followed exposure to sudden high concentrations of
vapor. Such high levels may also give rise to lung congestion. Exposure to
extremely high concentrations (10,000 ppm or more) of xylene vapors can lead to
a strong narcotic effect with symptoms of slurred speech, stupor fatigue,
confusion, unconsciousness, coma, and possible death.
Long Term Exposure
Inhalation of xylene vapor and skin contact with liquid are the two most probable
routes of long term exposure. Symptoms of inhalation are dizziness, headache
and nausea. Long term exposure has been associated with liver and kidney
damage, intestinal tract disturbances and central nervous system depression.
Prolonged contact with skin can lead to irritation, dryness and cracking. Repeated
exposure can cause poor memory, difficulty in concentration, and other brain
effects. It can also cause damage to the eye surface.
Effects of Overexposure, Carbon Black:
Short Term Exposure
Inhalation may cause irritation to respiratory tract. Skin contact may cause
irritation. Eye contact may cause irritation.
Long Term Exposure
Exposure to levels well above 3.5 mg/m3 for several months may result in
damage to the skin and nails, temporary or permanent damage to the lungs and
breathing passages, and adversely affect the heart. Carbon Black containing PAH
greater than 0.1% should be considered a suspect carcinogen. Lungs may be
affected by repeated or prolonged exposure at very high concentrations: Some
Carbon blacks may contain compounds which are carcinogenic and as organic
extracts of these have been classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans, special
care should be taken to avoid exposure to such extracts. Lung effects remain
controversial and may be due to contaminants. It is probable that minor effects
reported are non-specific effects associated with exposure to nuisance dusts in
general. Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are reportedly present in some carbon
blacks. Depending on the process of manufacture, there are variations in their
chemical compositions.
Effects of Overexposure, Stoddard Solvent:
Short Term Exposure
Inhalation: Causes irritation of the eyes and respiratory tract. Exposure to levels
above 2,400 mg/m3 may cause headache, dizziness and nose and throat irritation.
More severe exposures may cause nausea and vomiting, a feeling of intoxication,
weakness, muscle twitches and in extreme cases convulsions, unconsciousness
and death.
Effects of Overexposure, Stoddard Solvent:
Long Term Exposure
Prolonged or repeated contact with liquid may cause defatting of the skin with
drying, irritation, and skin ulcers. Exposure to vapor may cause eye, nose and
throat irritation, fatigue, headaches, anemia, jaundice, and damage to the liver and
bone marrow. In animals: kidney damage. Repeated exposure may cause a rare
reaction in some people that destroys blood cells (aplastic anemia). This can be
fatal. Many petroleum-based solvents have been shown to cause brain and/or
nerve damage. Effects may include reduced memory and concentration,
personality changes, fatigue, sleep disturbances, reduced coordination, effects on
the autonomic nerves and/or nerves to the limbs.
Carcinogenicity: The following chemicals comprise 0.1% or more of this mixture and are listed and/or classified as carcinogens or potential carcinogens by NTP, IARC, OSHA, or ACGIH.
Carbon Black: (ACGIH)
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
INHALATION - Move person to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, administer artifical respiration. Seek medical
attention!
EYE CONTACT - In case of eye contact, flush the eyes with water for fifteen (15) minutes. If contact lenses are worn, quickly remove them, then flush the eyes with water. Have a physician examine the eyes.
SKIN CONTACT - In case of skin contact, remove contaminated clothing. Flush the skin with large amounts of water, then wash the skin with soap and water.
INGESTION - Do not induce vomiting. This may cause chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep the head below the hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs. Seek immediate medical attention.
