A.“. 4.M **..,...“.Y”...,.“..~ .#.ISection 6. Health Hazard Data. ContinuedTCE crosses the placental barrier <strong>and</strong> thus exposes the fetus (any effects are yet unknown). There are increased reports of menstrual disorders inwomen <strong>work</strong>em <strong>and</strong> decreased libido in males at exposures high enough to cause CNS effects. TCE is eliminated unchanged in expired air <strong>and</strong> asmetabolites (aichlomacetic acid & trichlomethanol) in blood <strong>and</strong> urine. Medical Conditions Aggmvated by Long-Term Exposure: Diorde~ ofthe nervou system. skin, heart, liver. <strong>and</strong> kidney. Target Orgaus: Respiratory. central & peripheral n~ous, <strong>and</strong> cardiovascular (heart) systm~s._ v, kidney, <strong>and</strong> skin. Primary Entry Routes: Inhalation, skin <strong>and</strong> eye contact. <strong>and</strong> ingestion (rarely). Acute Effects: Vapor inhalation canre eye. nose, <strong>and</strong> throat irritation, nausea blurred vision, overexcitement, headache, drunkenness, memory loss, irregular heartbeat (resulting in..rden death), unconsciousness. <strong>and</strong> death due to cardiac failure. Skin contact with the liquid can cause dryness <strong>and</strong> cracking <strong>and</strong> prolongedexposure (genemlly if the victim is unconscious) can cause blistering. Eye contact can cause irritation <strong>and</strong> watering, with corneel epithehum injuryin some cases. Ingestion of the liquid can cause lip, mouth. <strong>and</strong> gastrointestinal irritation, irregular hear&a& nause<strong>and</strong> vomiting, diarrhea(possibly blood-stained), drowsiness, <strong>and</strong> risk of pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs). Chronic Effects: Effects may persist <strong>for</strong> severat weeks ormonths after repeated exposure. Symptoms include giddiness, irritability, headache, digestive disturbances, mental confusion, intolerance to alcohol(degreasers flush), altered color perception, loss or impairment of sense of smell, double vision, <strong>and</strong> peripheral nervou system function impkentincluding persistent neuritis, temporary loss of sense of touch, <strong>and</strong> paralysis of the fingers from direct contact with TCE liquidFIRST AID Eyes: Do nor allow victim to rub or keep eyes tightly shut. Gently lift eyelids <strong>and</strong> flush immediately <strong>and</strong> continuously with floodingamounts of water until transported to an emergency medical facility. Consult a physician immediately. Sldn: Qr&kly remove contaminatedclothing. Rinse with flooding amounts of water <strong>for</strong> at least 15 min. Wash exposed area with soap <strong>and</strong> water. Inhalation: Remove exposed person tofresh ais <strong>and</strong> support breathing as needed. Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. Contact a poisoncontrol center <strong>and</strong> unless otherw&e advised, have that conscious end alert person drink 1 to 2 glasses of water, then induce vomiting. Do not givemilk, as its fat content (TCE is lipid soluble) may inhance gastrointestinal absorption of TCE. Note tu Physiciansr TCE ehmination seems to betriphasic with half lives at 20 min. 3 hr. <strong>and</strong> 30 hr. Some success is seen in treating patients with pmpranolol, atropine, <strong>and</strong> disulfiram. Monitorurine <strong>and</strong> blood (lethal level = 3 to 110 pg/mL) metabotites. BEI = 100 mg/g creatinine (trichlomacetic acid) in urine, swnple at end of<strong>work</strong>week.BEI = 4 mg/L (trichlomethanol) in blood, sumpie at end ofship of end ofthe <strong>work</strong>week. These tests ace not 100% accurate indicators of exposure;monitor TCE in expired air as a confumatory test.Section 7. Spill, Leak, <strong>and</strong> Disposal Procedures .: : .SpillILeakz Immediately notify safety personnel, isolate <strong>and</strong> ventilate area, deny entry, <strong>and</strong> stay upwind. Shut off all ignition sources. For smallspills, take up with earth, s<strong>and</strong>, vermiculite, or other absorbent, noncombustible material <strong>and</strong> place in suitable container <strong>for</strong> later disposal. For largespills, flush to containment area where density stratification will <strong>for</strong>m a bottom TCE layer which can be pumped <strong>and</strong> containetized. Report anyrelease in excess of 1000 lbs. Follow applicable OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910.120). Eeotexicity Values: Bluegill sunf& LC% = 44,700 pg/L/% hr. fathead minnow (Pimephules ptvmeiar), LCS = 40.7 mgR196 hr. Environmental Degradation: In air, TCE is photooxidixed with a half-lifeof 5 days aod reported to <strong>for</strong>m phosgene. dichlomacetyl chloride. <strong>and</strong> <strong>for</strong>myl chloride. In water it evaporates rapidly in minutes to hours. TCErapidly evaporates <strong>and</strong> may leach since it does not absorb to sediment. Soil AbsorptionIMobility: TCE has a Log K, of 2, indicating high <strong>soil</strong>mobility. Disposal: Waste TCE can bc poured on dry s<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> allowed to vaporize in isolated location. purified by distillation, or returned tosupplier.

Because contact lens use in industly is contmversial. establish your own policy. Rcrpirator: Seek professionaladvice prior to respirator selection <strong>and</strong> use. Follow OSHA respiratoregulations (29 CFR 1910.134) <strong>and</strong>, if-, wear a MSHA/NIOSHapprovedrespirator. At any detectable concentration, wear a SCBA with a full facepiece opemted in pressure dem<strong>and</strong> or other positive pressuremode. For emergency or nonroutine operations (cleaning spills. reactor vessels, or storage tanks), wear an SCBA. Wuming! Air-purifying respiratorsdo nor protect <strong>work</strong>ers in oxygen-dcficienr atmospheres. If respirators are used. OSHA requires a mspimtoty protection pmgram that includesat leasu medical certific;ltion. traming. fit-t&tI8. periodic environmental monitoring, maintenance, inspection, cleaning, <strong>and</strong> convenienf sanitarystorage areas. Other: Wear chemically protective gloves. boots, aprons. <strong>and</strong> gauntlets made Born Viton or Neoprene to prevent skin contact Do noruse natural rubber or polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Ventilation: Provide general <strong>and</strong> local exhaust ventilation systems to maintain airborne concentrationsbelow OSHA PELs (Sec. 2). Local exhaust ventilation is preferred because it prevents contaminant din into the <strong>work</strong> area by controllingit at its source.(to3) Safety Stations: Make available in the <strong>work</strong> area emergency eyewash stations, safety/quick-drench showers, <strong>and</strong> washingfacilities. Contaminated Equipment: Separate contaminated <strong>work</strong> clothes from street clothes <strong>and</strong> launder be<strong>for</strong>e reuse. Remove this ma&al fromyour shoes <strong>and</strong> clean personal protective equipment, Comments: Never eat, drink, or smoke in <strong>work</strong> areas. Practice good personal hygieneespecially be<strong>for</strong>e eating. drinking, smoking, using the toilet or applying cosmetics.Section 9. Special Precautions <strong>and</strong> CommentsStorage Requirements: Prevent physical damage to containers. Store in steel drums. in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sunlighf heat,igniti& sout&s. <strong>and</strong> incompatibles (Sec. 5). Store large quantities in galvanized iron, black iron. or steel containers; small amounts in dark (amber)colored glass bottles. Engineering Controls: To reduce potential health hazards. use sufficient dilution or local exhaust ventilation to controlairborne contaminants <strong>and</strong> to maintain concentrationsthe lowest practicalevel. Design processes so that the operator is not directly exposed tothe solvent or its vapor. Do not use open electric heaters. high-temperature processes, arc-welding or open flames in TCE atmospheres. AdministrativeControls: Consider preplacement <strong>and</strong> periodic medical exams of exposed <strong>work</strong>ers with emphasis on skin. respiratory, cardiac, cenual <strong>and</strong>peripheral nervous systems, <strong>and</strong> liver <strong>and</strong> kidney function. Employ air <strong>and</strong> biological monitoring (BEIs).
