11.2 Additional Information
RTECS: KM5648000
To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated.
After absorption of large quantities:
Lung edema
No description of any further symptoms is avaiable.
Other information
The following applies to ketones in general: when vapours/aerosols occur, mucosal irritations, coughing, and dyspnoea after inhalation. The absorption of large quantities leads to: CNS depression (narcosis). Repeated skin contact leads to a degreasing effect, with secondary inflammation possible. Toxic effects on the liver and kidneys cannot be excluded after high doses. The inhalation of droplets may result in the formation of oedemas in the respiratory tract.
Further data:
Other dangerous properties can not be excluded.
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
