Administrative data

First-aid measures

Inhalation: If a person breathes in large amounts of this substance, move the exposed person to fresh air at once. Keep the affected person warm and at rest. Get medical attention immediately.

Ingestion: If ingested do not induce vomiting. Obtain medical advice immediately.

Aspiration: If there is any suspicion of aspiration of this substance either directly or as a result of vomiting obtain medical advice immediately.

Skin contact:

Where significant skin contact has occurred, wash affected areas thoroughly with water, using soap if available. Contaminated clothing should be removed as soon as possible, and affected skin areas washed thoroughly.

If irritation occurs and persists, obtain medical advice.

Eye contact:

If the eyes are affected, irrigate them immediately with copious amounts of water. If irritation occurs and persists, obtain medical advice.

Fire-fighting measures

Fire Hazards:

Combustible Liquid.

Fire Fighting:

Sources of ignition should be avoided in areas where the substance is stored, handled or used.

In the event of a fire involving this substance, the most effective extinguishing agents are dry chemical powder, foam, or carbon dioxide.

For small fires, sand or earth may be useful for smothering the fire.

Accidental release measures

SPILLAGE:

Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area).

All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded.

Stop leak if you can do it without risk.

Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas.

Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.

Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers.

Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material.

Handling and storage

Storage:

Protect containers against physical damage.

Handling:

Individuals handling or using this substance should be advised of the hazards, proper procedures and precautions, including health effects and recommendations for emergency treatment.

Special provisions / remarks / other:
A number of restrictions may apply to substances subject to transport classifications. Please refer to the appropriate regulation for specific details regarding classification requirements and restrictions.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering controls and work practices:

Should be sufficient to reduce exposures below the workplace standards for Mineral oil components established by the national regulations to the lowest level achievable.

Where significant aerosol or vapour is generated and cannot be eliminated through engineering modifications, local/general exhaust ventilation should be installed to reduce airborne concentrations.

Personal Protective Equipment:

Respiratory Protection:

Respiratory protection should be used in accordance with company and applicable national regulatory requirements.

Respiratory protection should be used to supplement the engineering controls and work practices.

Persons should not be assigned to tasks requiring the use of respirators unless it has been determined they are physically able to perform the work and are trained to use the equipment.

Suitable protective clothing and eye protection should be in accordance with national, or regional standards and regulations.

Repeated or prolonged skin contact should be avoided to prevent drying, cracking, irritation, dermatitis or more serious skin problems. If such contact is likely, impervious gloves or other protective clothing should be worn to avoid skin contact.

Where there is a possibility that splashing may occur, goggles or a face shield should be worn to avoid eye contact.

Stability and reactivity

Stability:

Stable under normal conditions for storage and handling.

Reactivity:

Avoid contact with strong oxidizers.
