4. FIRST AID MEASURES
FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eyes: Flush eyes with clean, low-pressure water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the eyelids. If pain or redness persists after
flushing obtain medical attention.
Skin: Remove by wiping, the wash skin thoroughly with plenty of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and thoroughly clean
before reuse. Discard contaminated leather gloves and shoes.
Ingestion: If more than a half-cup full of this material is swallowed, give quantities of water, do not induce vomiting, & obtain medical atten-
tion.
Inhalation: Vaporization is not expected at ambient temperatures and this material is not expected to be an inhalation problem under antici-
pated conditions of use. In case of overexposure, move person to fresh air.
NOTE TO PHYSICIANS: Supportive care. Treatment based on judgement of the physician response to reactions of the patient. May aggravate
pre-existing respiratory conditions.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: 270掳F Method: ASTM D92
Flammable limits in air: Lower Flammable Limit: - 1.0 Upper Flammable Limit - 7.0
Autoignition Temperature: 600掳F
Hazardous Combustion Products: Burning or excessive heating may produce carbon monoxide and other harmful gasses/vapors.
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical and carbon dioxide. Foam and water fog are effective, but may cause frothing.
Fire Fighting Instructions: COMBUSTIBLE! OSHA/NFPA CLASS IIIB COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID. For fires involving this material, do not
enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper protective equipment. This may include self-contained breathing apparatus to protect against the
hazardous effects of combustion products and oxygen deficiencies. If firefighters cannot work upwind to the fire, respiratory protective equipment must be
worn. Cool tanks and containers exposed to fire with water.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Small Spill: Absorb spill with an inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth), then place in a chemical waste container.
Large Spill: Contain spill and prevent it from entering all water bodies, if possible. Safely stop flow of spill. Evacuate non-essential personnel from
immediate spill area due to slipping hazards. In urban area, cleanup as soon as possible; In natural environments, cleanup on advice from ecologists. This
material will float on water. Absorbent materials and pads can be used. Comply with all applicable laws. Spills may need to be reported to the National
Response Center (800-424-8802).
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Use of oil impervious gloves recommended.
Storage: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! To avoid product degragation, water contamination should be avoided and minimum feasible han-
dling temperatures should be maintained. Periods of exposure to high temperatures (GT 150掳F) should be minimized. Product degradation might increase
health hazard risks.
Storage Temperatures: Ambient Storage Pressure: Atmospheric
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation to keep oil mists of this material below applicable guideline(s) / standard(s).
Respiratory Protection: None is needed under anticipated use conditions with adequate ventilation. If exposure exceeds the occupational exposure limits,
follow OSHA standards or equivalent and wear proper NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory equipment.
Skin Protection: Avoid prolonged and/or repeated skin contact, or wear impervious protective clothing. When leaving work, wash hands / exposed

skin with soap and water.
Eye Protection: Wear eye protection. In the likelihood of splashing or spraying, and especially if material is hot (GT 100掳F), wear goggles and/or
face shield. Eye wash water should be available. Hard contact lenses must not be worn.
9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES (TYPICAL)
Appearance: Slightly Yellow Boiling Point: GT 455掳F Odor: Slight petroleum

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), one of the Occupational Safety and Health Association's (OSHA) authorities for establishing car-
cinogenic potential, has specifically evaluated Naphthenic Oils. IARC found that mildly hydrotreated (hydrofinished) naphthenic oils are carcinogenic to
laboratory animals. IARC has NOT found severely hydrotreated naphthenic oils to be carcinogenic. This product is classified as severely (not mildly) hy-
drotreated under both IARC and OSHA definitions. A lifetime dermal application of this oil produce skin masses on mice which correlated with the skin ir-
ritation response levels of individual test animals. Additional studies attribute these masses to a weak promotional activity. These studies also showed that
this product is not a mutagen, not a tumor initiator, and not a complete chemical carcinogen. Under normal anticipated condition of use, this product should
not present a risk to human health.
12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Ecotoicological Information: The spilled material and any soil or water which it has contaminated may be hazardous to animal/aquatic life.
Chemical Fate Information: See Section 13.
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Maximize product recovery for reuse or recycling. Conditions of use may cause this material to become a 鈥淗azardous Waste鈥?, as defined by state or federal
laws. Use approved treatment, transporters and disposal sites in compliance with all applicable laws. If spill is introduced into a waste water treatment sys-
tem, chemical and biological oxygen demand will likely increase. Spill material is biodegradable if gradually exposed to microorganisms. Potential treat-
ment and disposal methods include land farming, incineration and land disposal, if permitted.
