ACUTE EXPOSURE INFORMATION
- Phthalic acid anhydride may be irritating to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Signs and symptoms of exposure may include: lacrimation, conjunctivitis, bloody nasal discharge, atrophy of the nasal mucosa, occasionally bloody sputum, cough, hoarseness, bronchitis, and emphysema. Skin sensitization and an eczematous response may occur.
- On moist surfaces, the irritant effects are greater due to hydrolysis to phthalic acid. If solid material is permitted to remain in contact with moist tissues, superficial burns may result. Molten material will cause a severe thermal burn.
