under EU Directive (67/548/EEC, as amended) and are present in sufficient concentration to make the overall
substance hazardous. In all other situations, the column will be completed as 鈥淣ot applicable鈥?.
3. Hazards Identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
There is the possibility of explosion if gas mixtures are being pumped which contain oxygen at a concentration more
than 4% above that in air. Prolonged and repeated exposure to oil products can be detrimental to health. Particular
issues of concern are inhalation of oil mist and contact with the skin.
For short and long term exposure effects see Section 11 Toxicological data.
Eye Effects: The product is not classified as an irritant by ocular application.
Skin Effects: The product is not classified as a primary irritant or as a corrosive by dermal application.
Ingestion/Oral Effects: The product is not classified as toxic by oral administration.
Inhalation Effects: The product may be considered non-hazardous by inhalation for all practicable purposes
unless there is the possibility of extended exposure to high concentrations of oil mist.
Aspiration of small amounts of oil into the lungs from vomiting following ingestion may
cause lung swelling and fluid retention (edema). See Section 8 Exposure controls/personal
protection and Section 11 Toxicological data.

4. First Aid Measures
Flush with water. If irritation occurs, seek medical attention.
Eyes:
Wash with soap and water. If irritation occurs, seek medical attention.
Skin:
DO NOT induce vomiting due to aspiration hazard. If victim is conscious give water to dilute.
Ingestion/Oral:
DO NOT give sodium bicarbonate, fruit juice or vinegar. Contact a physician.
Remove to fresh air. If breathing problems occur, a qualified individual should administer
Inhalation:
oxygen or artificial respiration as indicated. Seek immediate medical attention.
None.
Other Information:
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Extinguishing Media: Water fog, chemical foam or carbon dioxide. Direct water stream may cause
violent frothing.
Fire and Explosion Hazard: Incomplete combustion may produce carbon monoxide.
Special Protective Equipment Fire fighters should wear a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) which
for Fire Fighters: meets appropriate standards operated in positive pressure mode and full turn out
gear when there is a possibility of fumes or hazardous decomposition products..
For Flammability Properties - see Section 9
6. Accidental Release Measures
Spills should be dealt with as follows:
鈥? Small spill : May be wiped up with a rag.
鈥? Large spill : Prevent product from entering the soil, drains, sewers and watercourses. Pick up spilt material
with a suitable adsorbent.
鈥? If product enters any water courses or sewers, conform with relevant local/government regulations.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling : The product is unlikely to present a significant health hazard when properly used in the recommended
application and good standards of industrial and personal hygiene are maintained.

Storage : No special storage required. However, keep the product in a well ventilated, dry atmosphere. Store in
the original containers.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Exposure Limits
Ingredient ACGIH - TLV - OSHA - PEL Occupational Exposure
Limits EH40 (UK)
5 mg/m3 - 8H TWA** 5 mg/m3 - 8 H TWA 5 mg/m3 - 8 H TWA
Polyalphaolefin
10 mg/m3 - STEL 10 mg/m3 - STEL
(as oil mist, mineral)
(as oil mist, mineral) (as oil mist, mineral)
** As sampled by a method which does not collect vapour.
Personal Protection:
Engineering Measures: Ensure good ventilation under all working conditions. Ventilation must be sufficient
to ensure that oil mist must be kept below the level indicated above. Local
exhaust from mechanical pumps should be via a mist filter. Avoid pumps
exhausting into the workspace.
Respiratory Protection: None is required unless significant amounts of oil mist are present.
Hand/Skin Protection: Wear gloves made of oil-impermeable rubber.
Eye/Face Protection: Wear protective goggles with side shields in case of splashing.
Hygiene Measures: Avoid contact with skin. Do not eat or smoke whilst using the product. Wash hands
before eating or smoking.
Other/General Protection: There is the possibility of explosion if gas mixtures are being pumped which
contain oxygen at a concentration more than 4% above that in air. Do not use
Edwards No 45 oil in conditions where oil mist and an oxygen enriched
atmosphere are in contact with an ignition source (such as a hot surface). In this
situation, use an alternative pump fluid, such as perfluoropolyether (PFPE).

10. Stability and Reactivity
Stability: Stable.
Avoid continuous exposure to temperatures >2000C/3920F.
Material/Conditions to Avoid:
Hazardous Decomposition: Incomplete combustion may produce carbon monoxide.
11. Toxicological Information
For a comprehensive description for the various toxicological (health) effects which may arise if the user comes
into contact with the substance or preparation refer to Section 3 Hazards Identification.
Animal Data:
LD50 value:
Acute oral : >5.0 g/kg (male and female sprague-dawley rats)
LC50 value: Inhalation : 4.68 mg/l (1 h) (rats). Note that this is an estimated value for a similar compound
and is considered toxic. In order to determine this value, an extremely heavy mist of oil was
required. The heavy mists at the necessary concentration made visibility difficult and would be
difficult to work in for a period of time. It was reported that histopathological changes may
compound related toxicity effect.
Carcinogenicity:
No known tumorigenic, reproductive, carcinogenic or mutagenic effects.
12. Ecological Information
No information available.
13. Disposal Considerations
Proper waste disposal procedures are dependent on the product鈥檚 end-use. Check applicable local legislation
governing treatment, storage and disposal of your process effluents.
14. Transport Information
This product is not regulated as dangerous under transport regulations.
