Inhalation:
Exposure may cause irritation to the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract. Prolonged
General supplier, trading, chemical industry & specialty
exposures to high concentrations may cause drowsiness, loss of appetite and inability to
concentrate.
Ingestion:
Cause headaches, gastritis, intoxication, blindness and, in acute cases, death.
Skin Contact:
Causes skin irritation, cracking or flaking due to dehydration and defatting action.
Eye Contact:

Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged skin contact causes drying and cracking of skin. May affect the nervous system. May
affect liver, blood, reproductive system. Continued ingestion of small amounts could result in
blindness.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems or impaired liver or kidney function
may be more susceptible to the effects of the substance.
Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control
the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work
area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended
Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded, wear a supplied air, full-facepiece respirator, airlined hood, or
full-facepiece self-contained breathing apparatus.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as
appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain eye
wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Reproductive Toxicity:
Ethanol has been linked to birth defects in humans.
Carcinogenicity:
Ethanol has been linked to cancer in humans. Chronic ethanol ingestion is associated with liver
cancer. Most industrial ethanol contains denaturants that render it undesirable to drink.
