4. First Aid Measures
Evacuate the victim to a safe area as soon as
Inhalation:
possible. Allow the victim to rest in a well-ventilated
area. Administer oxygen if available. If the victim is
not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. If resuscitation is required,
assessment by a doctor is mandatory.
Remove contaminated clothing - launder before re-
Skin contact:
use. Wash with soap and water. Discard saturated
leather articles.
Check for and remove any contact lenses. DO NOT
Eye contact:
use an eye ointment. Flush with copious amounts of
warm water for at least 15 minutes.
DO NOT induce vomiting. Force fluids. Activated
Ingestion:
charcoal.
5. Fire-Fighting Measures
Small fire: Dry chemicals, CO2 , water spray or foam.
Suitable extinguishing media:
Large fire: Water spray, fog or foam.
Cool containing vessels with water jet in order to
Fire-fighting procedure:
prevent pressure build-up, auto-ignition or
explosion.
No additional remarks.
Special exposure hazards in fire:
Smoke.
Combustion products:
For small outdoor fires, which may be easily
Required special protective
extinguished with a portable fire extinguisher, use of
equipment for fire-fighters:
an SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus) may
not be required. Respiratory and eye protection is
required for fire-fighting personnel. An SCBA should
be used for all indoor fires and any significant
outdoor fires.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Avoid contact.
Personal precautions:
Contain the spill. Absorb with inert absorbent such
Environmental precautions:
as dry clay, sand or diatomaceous earth, commercial
sorbents, or recover using electrically-grounded
explosion-proof pumps.
Scoop up used absorbent and rags into drums.
Methods for cleaning:
Finish cleaning the spill area with running water.
Consult your local or regional authorities for
disposal requirements of material and empty
containers.

7. Handling and Storage
Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of
Handling:
ignition. Earth (ground) all equipment containing
material. Do not breathe gas/fumes/vapour/spray. In
case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable
respiratory equipment. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes. Keep away from incompatible materials, such
as oxidizing agents. Wash hands after handling and
before eating. Launder work clothes frequently.
Discard saturated leather goods.
Keep container dry. Keep in a cool place. Earth
Storage:
(ground) all equipment containing material. Keep
container tightly closed. Keep in a well-ventilated
place. Combustible materials should be stored away
from extreme heat and away from strong oxidizing
agents.
8. Exposure Controls
...airborne concentrations of vapours from exceeding
Take measures to prevent:
their threshold limits by providing exhaust
ventilation or other engineering controls. Ensure that
eyewash station and safety shower is close to the
workstation location.
Exposure control limits, and source: TLV-TWA (BA) 5 (mg/m3 ): manufacturer鈥檚
recommendation based on ACGIH TLV for oil mists.
Consult local authorities for acceptable exposure
limits.
A respirator is not normally necessary. If mist is

generated by heating, spraying and so forth, wear an
approved organic vapour respirator suitable for oil
mists in areas with sufficient oxygen. An SCBA
should be used for large spills.
For direct contact of more than 2 hours,
Hand protection:
fluoroelastomer or nitrile gloves are needed.
Otherwise PVC gloves may be used.
Safety glasses are not required under normal

conditions.
For large spills, wear splash goggles, full suit, boots,
Other requirements:
gloves and respiratory protection (as specified
above). Suggested protective clothing may not be
sufficient: consult a specialist before handling this
product.

11. Toxicological Information
Concise description of toxicological properties follows, including any special health effects of
constituents:
Prolonged or repeated contact with the skin may cause irritation and possible dermatitis.
Contact with the eyes may cause irritation. There is a negligible breathing hazard at
normal temperatures (up to 38掳C) or recommended blending temperatures. Elevated
temperatures or mechanical action may form vapours, mists or fumes. Inhalation of oil
mists or vapours from hot oil may cause irritation of the upper respiratory tract. The
material has a low toxicity on ingestion, but has a laxative effect.
