How to handle m-Xylene CAS 108-38-3 safely?

Nov 05, 2025 Leave a message

M-xylene (CAS 108-38-3) is a colourless, clear liquid with an aromatic odour and the formula C₈H₁₀. It is a vital isomer of xylene and is used as a fundamental building block and a solvent in the petrochemical industry. Despite its usefulness, it poses significant risks, including high flammability with a flash point of 25°C, allowing its vapours to form explosive mixtures with air. Exposure can lead to irritation of the eyes, skin and respiratory tract, and may result in systemic effects such as dizziness and central nervous system depression. It is also toxic to aquatic life, so strict handling controls and the use of appropriate personal protective equipment are necessary to mitigate risks.

 

Safety Protection

  • Respiratory Protection: Wear filtering half-mask respirators when airborne concentrations exceed permissible limits. During emergency rescue or evacuation, use self-contained breathing apparatus.
  • Eye Protection: Wear chemical safety goggles.
  • Body Protection: Wear chemical-resistant work clothing.
  • Hand Protection: Wear oil-resistant rubber gloves.
  • Other Precautions: No smoking, eating, or drinking at the work site. Shower and change clothes after work. Maintain good hygiene practices.
