3507 Cyclopentane Cyclopentane is a cyclic hydrocarbon. It is a component of gasoline and is used in the manufacture of synthetic resins and rubber adhesives, and also as a blowing agent in the manufacture of polyurethane insulating foam. (L1298) 287-92-3 9253 C5H10 70.078250 Colorless liquid. -93.8°C 0.156 mg/mL at 25°C [YALKOWSKY,SH & DANNENFELSER,RM (1992)] Oral (L400) ; inhalation (L400) ; dermal (L400) Petroleum distillates are central nervous system depressants and cause pulmonary damage. (A600) Volatile hydrocarbons are absorbed mainly through the lungs, and may also enter the body after ingestion via aspiration. (A600) Cyclopentane is found in gasoline, which is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). (L135) Cyclopentane is a component of gasoline and is used in the manufacture of synthetic resins and rubber adhesives, and also as a blowing agent in the manufacture of polyurethane insulating foam. (L1298) Petroleum distillates are aspiration hazards and may cause pulmonary damage, central nervous system depression, and cardiac effects such as cardiac arrhythmias. They may also affect the blood, immune system, liver, and kidney. (A600, L1297) Petroleum distillate poisoning may cause nausea, vomiting, cough, pulmonary irritation progressing to pulmonary edema, bloody sputum, and bronchial pneumonia. At high amounts, central nervous system depression may also occur, with symptoms such as weakness, dizziness, slow and shallow respiration, unconsciousness, and convulsions. Petroleum distillates are also irritating to the skin. (A594) Treatment is mainly symptomatic and supportive. Gastric lavage, emesis, and the administration of activated charcoal should be avoided, as vomiting increases the risk of aspiration.
