    Triethylaluminum is an aluminum compound that is an irritant to skin, eyes, and the respiratory system. It is not classifiable as a human carcinogen. While the vapors are nontoxic, inhalation of the metallic oxide smoke produced at concentrations over 15 mg/cu m can cause metal fume fever symptoms. It is an irritant that can cause minor irritation to lungs and eyes.
