| Hazards Identification | Back to Contents | 【Inhalation】
May cause respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. | 【Skin】
May cause skin irritation. | 【Eyes】
May cause eye irritation. | 【Ingestion】
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. | 【Hazards】
