pneumonitis; treat the affected person appropriately.
5. Fire-Fighting Measures
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, water fog.
Specific Hazards: Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground to some
distant source of ignition and flash back.
Vapors emitted may form a flammable mixture with air.
Empty containers may retain product residue including Flammable or
Explosive vapors. Do not cut, drill, grind, or weld near full, partially full,
or empty product containers.
Water or foam may cause frothing if the product is heated above 93
degrees C (200 degrees F).
Protection of Firefighters: Fire fighters should be equipped with NIOSH-approved, self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective clothing.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal Precautions: Avoid inhalation of vapors and contact with skin and eyes.
Do not smoke or use open fire or other sources of ignition.
Eliminate all sources of ignition or flammables that may come into
contact with a spill of this material.
Ventilate the contaminated area.
Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up.

7. Handling and Storage
Handling:
Technical Measures: Keep this product from heat, sparks, or open flame.
Precautions and Advice for Safe Avoid breathing vapor, mist or gas.
Handling: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with this material.
Keep away from heat, spark and open flame.
Storage: Do not store at temperatures above 120掳F (49掳C)
Technical Measures: No special precautions necessary.
Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from sources of heat.
Ground all containers of this material.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Engineering Measures: General (mechanical) room ventilation is expected to be satisfactory if
handled at low temperatures or in covered equipment. Local
ventilation is needed in the presence of airborne mists.
Control Parameters: If oil mist is generated, observe the OSHA exposure limit of 5 mg/m3.
Ford Motor Company recommends an exposure limit of 1.0 mg/m3.
Exposure Limits:
Chemical Name TWA 8 hr STEL/C References
10(ppm)
NAPHTHALENE 15(ppm) ACGIH
10(ppm) 50(ppm) OSHA
Personal Protective Equipment:
None required under normal conditions.
Respiratory Protection:
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations to a
level which is adequate to protect worker health, an approved
respirator must be worn. Respirator selection, use and maintenance
should be in accordance with the requirements of OSHA Respiratory
Protection Standard 29 CFR 1910.134 and/or Canadian Standard
CSA Z94.4.
Use of impervious gloves is recommended, such as neoprene.
Hand Protection:

11. Toxicological Information
This product contains naphthalene. A U.S. National Toxicology Program
Chronic (Long Term) Toxicity:
(NTP) report states that a lifetime inhalation exposure to naphthalene
resulted in increases in tumors of the nose in rats. In a previous U.S.
NTP study, lifetime inhalation exposure to naphthalene increased lung
tumors in female mice. The relevance of the rodent findings to humans
is questionable.
