Exposure controls
Personal protection
No special equipment for minor exposure i.e. when handling small quantities.
OTHERWISE:
Safety glasses with side shields.
Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing
Eye and face protection
the wearing of lenses or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a review of lens absorption
and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in
their removal and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure, begin eye irrigation immediately and
remove contact lens as soon as practicable.
Skin protection See Hand protection below
No special equipment needed when handling small quantities.
Hands/feet protection
OTHERWISE: Wear chemical protective gloves, e.g. PVC.

NOTE: As a series of factors will influence the actual performance of the glove, a final
selection must be based on detailed observation. -
* Where the glove is to be used on a short term, casual or infrequent basis, factors such
as "feel" or convenience (e.g. disposability), may dictate a choice of gloves which might
otherwise be unsuitable following long-term or frequent use. A qualified practitioner
should be consulted.

produce conjunctivitis.
The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may produce on contact skin redness, swelling, the production of
vesicles, scaling and thickening of the skin.
For ethylene glycol monoalkyl ethers and their acetates (EGMAEs):
Typical members of this category are ethylene glycol propylene ether (EGPE), ethylene glycol butyl ether (EGBE) and ethylene glycol hexyl ether
(EGHE) and their acetates.
EGMAEs are substrates for alcohol dehydrogenase isozyme ADH-3, which catalyzes the conversion of their terminal alcohols to aldehydes
(which are transient metabolites). Further, rapid conversion of the aldehydes by aldehyde dehydrogenase produces alkoxyacetic acids, which are
the predominant urinary metabolites of mono substituted glycol ethers.
Acute Toxicity: Oral LD50 values in rats for all category members range from 739 (EGHE) to 3089 mg/kg bw (EGPE), with values increasing
with decreasing molecular weight. Four to six hour acute inhalation toxicity studies were conducted for these chemicals in rats at the highest
vapour concentrations practically achievable. Values range from LC0 > 85 ppm (508 mg/m3) for EGHE, LC50 > 400ppm (2620 mg/m3) for
EGBEA to LC50 > 2132 ppm (9061 mg/m3) for EGPE. No lethality was observed for any of these materials under these conditions. Dermal LD50
values in rabbits range from 435 mg/kg bw (EGBE) to 1500 mg/kg bw (EGBEA). Overall these category members can be considered to be of low
to moderate acute toxicity.
Animal testing showed that exposure to ethylene glycol monobutyl ether resulted in toxicity to both the mother and the embryo. Reproductive
effects were thought to be less than that of other monoalkyl ethers of ethylene glycol.
Chronic exposure may cause anaemia, with enlargement and fragility of red blood cells. It is thought that in animals butoxyethanol may cause
generalized clotting and bone infarction. In animals, 2-butoxyethanol also increased the rate of some cancers, including liver cancer.
For ethylene glycol:
Ethylene glycol is quickly and extensively absorbed throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Limited information suggests that it is also absorbed
through the airways; absorption through skin is apparently slow. Following absorption, it is distributed throughout the body. In humans, it is initially
metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase to form glycoaldehyde, which is rapidly converted to glycolic acid and glyoxal. These breakdown products
are oxidized to glyoxylate, which may be further metabolized to formic acid, oxalic acid, and glycine. Breakdown of both glycine and formic acid
can generate carbon dioxide, which is one of the major elimination products of ethylene glycol. In addition to exhaled carbon dioxide, ethylene
glycol is eliminated in the urine as both the parent compound and glycolic acid.
The material may cause severe skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may produce on contact skin redness, swelling, the
production of vesicles, scaling and thickening of the skin. Repeated exposures may produce severe ulceration.
Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ends. This may be due to a non-allergic condition
known as reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) which can occur after exposure to high levels of highly irritating compound. Main
criteria for diagnosing RADS include the absence of previous airways disease in a non-atopic individual, with sudden onset of persistent
SODIUM METASILICATE,
asthma-like symptoms within minutes to hours of a documented exposure to the irritant. Other criteria for diagnosis of RADS include a reversible
ANHYDROUS
airflow pattern on lung function tests, moderate to severe bronchial hyperreactivity on methacholine challenge testing, and the lack of minimal
lymphocytic inflammation, without eosinophilia. RADS (or asthma) following an irritating inhalation is an infrequent disorder with rates related to
the concentration of and duration of exposure to the irritating substance. On the other hand, industrial bronchitis is a disorder that occurs as a
result of exposure due to high concentrations of irritating substance (often particles) and is completely reversible after exposure ceases. The
disorder is characterized by difficulty breathing, cough and mucus production.

Other information
Classification of the preparation and its individual components has drawn on official and authoritative sources as well as independent review by the Chemwatch Classification
committee using available literature references.
The SDS is a Hazard Communication tool and should be used to assist in the Risk Assessment. Many factors determine whether the reported Hazards are Risks in the workplace or
other settings. Risks may be determined by reference to Exposures Scenarios. Scale of use, frequency of use and current or available engineering controls must be considered.
