SECTION VI 鈥? HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
Exposure Limits:
Oil Mist: 5MG / M3 within OSHA, PEL/ACGIH TLV, Government Regulation
1
Routes of Entry: Inhalation of incidental mists or vapors, dermal contact with liquid product.
Inhalation: In enclosed spaces or when hot, vapors may reach concentrations sufficient to cause drowsiness,
dizziness, headache, nausea, or lung irritation. Elevated mist concentrationsmay cause severe lung damage.
Eye: May cause transient eye irritation characterized by pain, tears, swelling, redness and blurred vision.
Skin: May cause mild transient skin irritation. Ingestion: Upon ingestion, gastrointestinal discomfort,
diarrhea, and headache may occur. Chronic Exposure Symptoms: Prolonged and/or frequent contact may
cause drying cracking (dermatitis) or folliculitis. Medical Conditions generally aggravated by exposure:
None
Emergency First Aid Procedures
Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. If victim is not breathing, immediately begin cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR). If breathing is difficult, a qualified individual should administer 100% - humidified
oxygen. Seek medical attention immediately. Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed skin
with soap and water. Launder clothing before use. Seek medical attention immediately persists. Eye: Flush
eyes with cool water while occasionally lifting and lowering eyelids. Remove contact lenses if worn. Seek
medical attention if excessive tearing, irritation or pain persists. Ingestion: Induce vomiting only upon the
advice of a physician. Never give anything by mouth to a person who is not fully conscious. Seek medical
attention immediately. Injection: Injection under the skin, in muscle or into the blood stream is a medical
emergency. Seek medical attention immediately.
SECTION VII 鈥? PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
Spill Procedures: Remove all ignition sources. Isolate the area of the spill and restrict access to persons
wearing protective clothing. Ventilate area, as necessary, to disperse vapor and mists. Do not allow material to
escape into sewers, ground water, drainage ditches or surface water. Clean absurd released material with non-
combustible absorbent. Waste Disposal: It is the responsibility of the user to determine if the material is a
hazardous waste at the time of disposal. Determine compliance status with all applicable requirements prior to
disposal. Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Do not apply heat or flame to container. Keep
separate from strong oxidizing agents. Precautionary Labeling: N/A
SECTION VIII 鈥? SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Respiratory Protection: At elevated temperatures, vapor or mist concentrations may exceed applicable
workplace exposure levels. Use a NIOSH or MSHA approved organic vapor/mist chemical cartridge respirator
when elevated airborne concentrations are anticipated. Eyes: Use safety glasses. Use chemical splash
goggles if splashing is anticipated. Dermal: Use gloves constructed of impervious materials such as heavy
nitrile rubber or neoprene if frequent or prolonged contact is expected.
