Common Name:
n-AMYL ACETATE
CAS Number: 628-63-7
DOT Number: UN 1104
HAZARD SUMMARY
* n-Amyl Acetate can affect you when breathed in. * n-Amyl Acetate can irritate the eyes causing a burning sensation. * Breathing n-Amyl Acetate can irritate the nose and throat causing cough and wheezing. * Exposure to high concentrations of n-Amyl Acetate can cause headache, drowsiness, weakness, dizziness and even unconsciousness. * Prolonged or repeated skin contact can cause irritation, dryness and cracking. * n-Amyl Acetate may damage the liver. * n-Amyl Acetate is a FLAMMABLE LIQUID and a FIRE
HAZARD.
IDENTIFICATION
n-Amyl Acetate is a colorless liquid with a banana-like odor. It is widely used as a solvent and in the manufacture of artificial fruit-flavoring agents.
REASON FOR CITATION
* n-Amyl Acetate is on the Hazardous Substance List because it is regulated by OSHA and cited by ACGIH,
DOT, NIOSH, NFPA and EPA.
* This chemical is on the Special Health Hazard Substance
List because it is FLAMMABLE.
* Definitions are provided on page 5.
HOW TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE BEING
EXPOSED
The New Jersey Right to Know Act requires most employers to label chemicals in the workplace and requires public employers to provide their employees with information and training concerning chemical hazards and controls. The federal OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, 1910.1200, requires private employers to provide similar training and information to their employees. * Exposure to hazardous substances should be routinely evaluated. This may include collecting personal and area air samples. You can obtain copies of sampling results from your employer. You have a legal right to this information under OSHA 1910.1020.
RTK Substance number: 1321
Date: February 1998 Revision: June 2004
* If you think you are experiencing any work-related health problems, see a doctor trained to recognize occupational diseases. Take this Fact Sheet with you. * ODOR THRESHOLD = 0.52 ppm * The range of accepted odor threshold values is quite broad. Caution should be used in relying on odor alone as a warning of potentially hazardous exposures.
WORKPLACE EXPOSURE LIMITS
OSHA: The legal airborne permissible exposure limit (PEL) is 100 ppm averaged over an 8-hour workshift. NIOSH: The recommended airborne exposure limit is
100 ppm averaged over a 10-hour workshift.
ACGIH: The recommended airborne exposure limit is
50 ppm averaged over an 8-hour workshift and 100 ppm as a STEL (short term exposure limit).
WAYS OF REDUCING EXPOSURE
* Where possible, enclose operations and use local exhaust ventilation at the site of chemical release. If local exhaust ventilation or enclosure is not used, respirators should be worn. * Wear protective work clothing. * Wash thoroughly immediately after exposure to n-Amyl Acetate and at the end of the workshift. * Post hazard and warning information in the work area. In addition, as part of an ongoing education and training effort, communicate all information on the health and safety hazards of n-Amyl Acetate to potentially exposed workers. n-AMYL ACETATE page 2 of 6 This Fact Sheet is a summary source of information of all potential and most severe health hazards that may result from exposure. Duration of exposure, concentration of the substance and other factors will affect your susceptibility to any of the potential effects described below.
HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
Acute Health Effects
The following acute (short-term) health effects may occur immediately or shortly after exposure to n-Amyl Acetate: * n-Amyl Acetate can irritate the eyes causing a burning sensation. * Breathing n-Amyl Acetate can irritate the nose and throat causing cough and wheezing. * Exposure to high concentrations of n-Amyl Acetate can cause headache, drowsiness, weakness, dizziness and even unconsciousness.
Chronic Health Effects
The following chronic (long-term) health effects can occur at some time after exposure to n-Amyl Acetate and can last for months or years:
Cancer Hazard
* According to the information presently available to the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, n-Amyl Acetate has not been tested for its ability to cause cancer in animals.
Reproductive Hazard
* According to the information presently available to the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, n-Amyl Acetate has not been tested for its ability to affect reproduction.
Other Long-Term Effects
* Prolonged or repeated skin contact can cause irritation, dryness and cracking. * n-Amyl Acetate may damage the liver. * This chemical has not been adequately evaluated to determine whether brain or other nerve damage could occur with repeated exposure. However, many solvents and other petroleum-based chemicals have been shown to cause such damage. Effects may include reduced memory and concentration, personality changes (withdrawal, irritability), fatigue, sleep disturbances, reduced coordination, and/or effects on nerves supplying internal organs (autonomic nerves) and/or nerves to the arms and legs (weakness, "pins and needles").
MEDICAL
Medical Testing
If symptoms develop or overexposure is suspected, the following are recommended: * Liver function tests. * Evaluate for brain effects such as changes in memory,quotesdbs_dbs2.pdfusesText_3
