GHS Classification(s)
Eye irritation (Category 2)
Flammable Liquids (Category 2)
Skin irritation (Category 2)
Specific target organ toxicity - single exposure (Category 3)
Organ Description
Causes eye irritation. May cause painful sensitization to light. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and
Eyes
corneal damage.
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause systemic toxicity
with acidosis. May cause central nervous system depression, characterized by excitement, followed
Ingestion
by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced stages may cause collapse,
unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory failure.
High concentrations may cause central nervous system effects characterized by nausea, headache,
Inhalation dizziness, unconsciousness and coma. Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause narcotic
effects in high concentration. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation.
Causes moderate skin irritation. May cause dermatitis by de-fatting the skin from prolonged or
Skin
repeated contact.
Skin
Immediately flush affected area with plenty of water while removing contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated
clothing before reuse. Contact a doctor. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
Inhalation
Remove person to fresh air. If signs/symptoms continue, get medical attention. Give oxygen or artificial respiration
as needed.
Eyes
Thoroughly flush the eyes with large amounts of clean low-pressure water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally
lifting the upper and lower eyelids. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Ingestion
DO NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting does occur, have victim lean forward to prevent aspiration. Rinse mouth with
water. Seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious individual.
Note to Physician
Symptoms vary with alcohol level of the blood. Mild alcohol intoxication occurs at blood levels between 0.05- 0.15
%. Approximately 25% of individuals show signs of intoxication at these levels. Above 0.15% the person is
definitely under the influence of ethanol; 50-95% of individuals are clinically intoxicated at these levels. Severe
poisoning occurs when the blood is ethanol level is 0.3- 0.5%. Above 0.5% the individual will be comatose and
death can occur. The unabsorbed ethanol should be removed by gastric lavage after intubating the patient to
prevent aspiration. Avoid the use of depressant drugs or the excessive administration of fluids.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical (e.g., nature of any hazardous combustion products):
Carbon monoxide is expected to be the primary hazardous combustion product.
Flammable Properties
Classification
OSHA/NFPA Class IB Flammable Liquid.
Flash point
21 °C (70 °F) - closed cup
Environmental precautions:
Stop leak. Contain spill if possible and safe to do so. Prevent product from entering drains.
Hand protection:
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching
glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in
accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.
Eye protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Use equipment approved by
appropriate government standards, such as NIOSH (US) or EN166 (EU) Maintain eye wash fountain and
quick-drench facilities in work area.
Hygiene measures:
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end
of workday.
Product Summary:
Ethanol is not toxic by OSHA standards. Co-ingestion of sedative hypnotics or tranquilizers can increase the toxic
effects of ethanol.
Acute Toxicity:
Irritation:
Skin
Standard Draize skin test (rabbit) - Dose: 20 mg/24 hours Reaction: Moderate Repeated exposure may
cause skin dryness or cracking.
Carcinogenicity
IARC: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen.
ACGIH: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen.
NTP: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen.
OSHA: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen.
Other Hazards
Organ Description
Eyes Irritating to the eyes. May cause painful sensitization to light. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and
corneal damage.

with acidosis. May cause central nervous system depression, characterized by excitement, followed
by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced stages may cause collapse,
unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory failure.
Inhalation Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system effects characterized by nausea,
headache, dizziness, unconsciousness and coma. Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause
narcotic effects in high concentration. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation.
Skin Mildly irritating to the skin. May cause dermatitis by de-fatting the skin from prolonged or repeated
contact.
Chronic May cause reproductive and fetal effects. Laboratory experiments have resulted in mutagenic effects.
Animal studies have reported the development of tumors. Prolonged exposure may cause liver,
kidney, and heart damage. Long term exposure can cause loss of appetite, weight loss,
nervousness, memory loss, mental retardation.
