ToxicityA colorless liquid used as a solvent, in paints and in the printing industry. It enters the body primarily by inhalation or skin absorption. MBK causes irritation of the skin and mucous membranes and, on continued exposure, peripheral axonopathy; the latter is due to its metabolic conversion to 2,5-hexanedione. It is known to potentiate the hepatotoxicity of haloalkanes.

Health HazardRecommended Personal Protective Equipment: Protective gloves; goggles or face shield; approved respirator (for major spills); Symptoms Following Exposure: Inhalation of high concentrations of vapor may result in narcosis; peripheral neuropathy may develop. Ingestion of large amounts may cause some systemic injury. Contact with eyes causes mild to moderate irritation. Liquid irritates skin; prolonged or repeated contact may cause defatting of the skin with resultant dermatitis; General Treatment for Exposure: INHALATION: move to uncontaminated atmosphere and treat symptomatically; alert physician to possible development of peripheral neuropathy. INGESTION: give large amount of water and induce vomiting. EYES: irrigate immediately and thoroughly with water for 15 min. and get medical attention. SKIN: flush exposed areas thoroughly with water; Toxicity by Inhalation (Threshold Limit Value): 100 ppm; Short-Term Inhalation Limits: Data not available; Toxicity by Ingestion: Grade 2; oral LD50 = 2,590 mg/kg (rat); Late Toxicity: Peripheral neuropathy in experimental animals and man (disease of motor and/or sensor nerves); Vapor (Gas) Irritant Characteristics: Data not available; Liquid or Solid Irritant Characteristics: Data not available; Odor Threshold: Data not available.
Chemical ReactivityReactivity with Water No reaction; Reactivity with Common Materials: No reaction; Stability During Transport: Stable; Neutralizing Agents for Acids and Caustics: Not pertinent; Polymerization: Not pertinent; Inhibitor of Polymerization: Not pertinent.
