iratory sensitizer. Vapors irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Safe handling conditions may be maintained
by keeping vapor concentrations below the OSHA
permissible limit for formaldehyde.
Primary Routes of Entry: Skin, ingestion, inhalation.
Signs and symptoms
of Exposure: Methyl ethyl ketoxime produced during cure
is toxic and irritates eyes, nose and throat.
