A chemical tank explosion at a north Toledo company released a chemical into the air overnight and prompted an evacuation of nearby residents. Glycol methacrylate, an industrial coating product, was released into the air after Tuesday night’s explosion, Toledo Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz told reporters.

People who come into contact with glycidyl methacrylate may feel as if their eyes, nose, mouth and skin are burning, the city fire department said. Overexposure can lead to headache, dizziness, tiredness, nausea and vomiting.

MC Tank Transport said the tank contained glycidyl methacrylate, which it described as 'an industrial chemical used to make certain plastics, paints and coatings perform better.'
