SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
- MAY CAUSE EYE DISCOMFORT UPON DIRECT CONTACT
- MAY CAUSE MINOR SKIN IRRITATION UPON PROLONGED CONTACT
IMMEDIATE HEALTH EFFECTS
Eye contact: May cause mild, short-lasting discomfort to eyes, based on testing of similar products
and/or components.
Skin contact: Avoid skin contact. Prolonged or repeated contact may result in oil acne which is
characterized by blackheads with possible secondary infection. Injection of pressurized
hydrocarbons under the skin can cause inflammation and swelling, as well as severe, permanent
tissue damage. The initial wound at the injection site may not appear to be serious at first, but, if left
untreated, could result in disfiguration or amputation of the affected part.

Inhalation: This product has a low vapor pressure and is not expected to present an inhalation hazard
at ambient conditions. Caution should be taken to prevent the formation of an aerosol or misting of
this product. The permissible exposure limit (PEL) and threshold limit value (TLV) for this product
as oil mist is 5 mg/m3. Exposures below 5 mg/m3 appear to be without significant health risk. The
short-term exposure limit for this product as an oil mist is 10 mg/m3.
Ingestion: This product is relatively low toxicity by ingestion. This product has laxative properties
and may result in abdominal cramps and diarrhea.
DELAYED OR OTHER HEALTH EFFECTS
Cancer: None of the components in this material are listed as carcinogens by IARC, NTP, ACGIH or
OSHA.
Other: On rare occasions, prolonged and repeated exposure to oil mist poses a risk of pulmonary
disease such as chronic lung inflammation. This condition is usually asymptomatic as a result of
repeated small aspirations. Shortness of breath and cough are the most common symptoms.
See Section 11 for additional information. Risk depends on duration and level of exposure.
SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye contact: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water and continue flushing until
irritation subsides. If material is hot, treat for thermal burns and take victim to hospital immediately.
Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated area thoroughly with soap and
water. If redness or irritation occurs, seek medical attention. If material is hot, submerge injured area
in cold water. If victim is severely burned, remove to a hospital immediately. If material is injected
under the skin, seek medical attention immediately.
Note to physicians: In an accident involving high-pressure equipment, this type of product may be
injected under the skin. Immediate treatment at a surgical emergency center is recommended, no
matter how small and insignificant the wound may appear.
Inhalation: This material has a low vapor pressure and is not expected to present an inhalation
exposure at ambient conditions.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention.
SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

(0-Least, 1-Slight, 2-Moderate, 3-High, 4-Extreme, PPE:-Personal Protective Equipment Index
recommendation)
FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES:
Flash point: 260掳F (ASTM D-92 Cleveland Open Cup)

Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Water may be ineffective but can be used to cool containers
exposed to heat or flame. Caution should be exercised when using water or foam as frothing may
occur, especially if sprayed into containers of hot, burning liquid.
Unusual Fire and Explosive Conditions: Dense smoke may be generated while burning. Carbon
monoxide, carbon dioxide, and other oxides may be generated as products of combustion.
SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Protective Measures: Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spilled material. Consult
Hazards Identification Information in Section 3, Personal Protection information in Section 8, Fire
Fighting Measures in Section 5, and Reactivity data in Section 9.
Spill Management: Contain spill immediately. Do not allow spill to enter sewers or watercourses.
Remove all sources of ignition. Absorb with appropriate inert material such as sand, clay, etc. Large
spills may be picked up using vacuum pumps, shovels, buckets, or other means and placed in drums
or other suitable containers.
Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard鈥檚 National Response Center
at (800) 424-8802 as appropriate or required.
SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Do not transfer to unmarked containers. Store in closed containers away from heat, sparks, open
flame or oxidizing materials. Fire extinguishers should be kept readily available. See NFPA 30 and
OSHA 1910.106--flammable and combustible liquids.
SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
HMIS RATINGS: Health: 1 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0 PPE: See note 1.
(0-Least, 1-Slight, 2-Moderate, 3-High, 4-Extreme, PPE:-Personal Protective Equipment Index
recommendation)
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Eye protection: Eye protection is not required under normal conditions of use. If material is handled
such that it could be splashed into eyes, wear plastic face shield or splash-proof safety goggles.
Skin protection: No skin protection is required for single, short duration exposures. For prolonged
or repeated exposures, use impervious clothing (boots, gloves, aprons, etc.) over parts of the body
subject to exposure. If handling hot material, use insulated protective clothing (boots, gloves, aprons,
etc.). Launder soiled clothes. Properly dispose of contaminated leather articles including shoes,
which cannot be decontaminated.
Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection is not required under conditions of normal use. If
vapor or mist is generated when the material is heated or handled, use an organic vapor respirator
with a dust and mist filter. All respirators must be NIOSH certified. Do not use compressed oxygen in
hydrocarbon atmospheres.

Ventilation: If vapor or mist is generated when the material is heated or handled, adequate
ventilation in accordance with good engineering practice must be provided to maintain concentrations
below the specified exposure or flammable limits.
Other: Consumption of food and beverage should be avoided in work areas where hydrocarbons are
present. Always wash hands and face with soap and water before eating, drinking, or smoking.
