Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
SWALLOWED
- If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
- If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if
possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
- Observe the patient carefully.
- Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness;
i.e. becoming unconscious.
- Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can
comfortably drink.
- Seek medical advice.
EYE
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
- Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
- Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and
moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
- If pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
- Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled
personnel.
SKIN
If skin or hair contact occurs:
- Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
- Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
INHALED
- If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
- Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
- Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where
possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
- Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve
resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
- Transport to hospital, or doctor.

INGREDIENT DATA
DISTILLATES, PETROLEUM, LIGHT, ACID-TREATED:
DISTILLATES, PETROLEUM, MIDDLE, HYDROTREATED:
Human exposure to oil mist alone has not been demonstrated to cause health effects
except at levels above 5 mg/m3 (this applies to particulates sampled by a method that
does not collect vapour). It is not advisable to apply this standard to oils containing
unknown concentrations and types of additive.
TRIPOLI:
The concentration of respirable dust for application of this limit is to be determined
from the fraction that penetrates a separator whose size collection efficiency is
described by a cumulative lognormal function with a median aerodynamic diameter of 4.0 碌m
(+-) 0.3 碌m and with a geometric standard deviation of 1.5 碌m (+-) 0.1 碌m, i.e..generally
less than 5 碌m.
Tripoli is a microcrystalline form of quartz. The TLV-TWA is thought to be
protective against the risk of pulmonary fibrosis in workers exposed at
higher levels.

GLYCEROL:
The mist is considered to be a nuisance particulate which appears to have
little adverse effect on the lung and does not produce significant organic
disease or toxic effects. OSHA concluded that this limit would protect the
worker form kidney damage and perhaps, testicular effects.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE
- Safety glasses with side shields; or as required,
- Chemical goggles.
- Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and
concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or
restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a
review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account
of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal
and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure,
begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens
should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be
removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC
NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].
HANDS/FEET
Wear protective gloves, eg. PVC.
OTHER
- Overalls.
- Eyewash unit.
RESPIRATOR
Selection of the Class and Type of respirator will depend upon the level of breathing
zone contaminant and the chemical nature of the contaminant. Protection Factors (defined
as the ratio of contaminant outside and inside the mask) may also be important.

redness of the conjunctiva (similar to wind-burn), temporary impairment of vision and/ or
other transient eye damage/ ulceration.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The material may accentuate any pre-existing skin condition.
INHALED
The vapour/mist is discomforting to the upper respiratory tract.
Inhalation hazard is increased at higher temperatures.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Principal routes of exposure are usually by skin contact.
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause drying with cracking, irritation and
possible dermatitis following.
Long term inhalation of dusts containing crystalline silicas may lead to silicosis.
Effects are cumulative, with nodular fibrosis, respiratory impairment, emphysema, even
restriction, obstruction of lung function in severe cases. Chronic symptoms produced by
crystalline silicas included decreased vital lung capacity and chest infections. Lengthy
exposure may cause silicosis, a disabling form of pneumoconiosis which may lead to
fibrosis, a scarring of the lining of the air sacs in the lung. Symptoms may appear 8 to
18 months after initial exposure. Smoking increases this risk. Classic silicosis is a
chronic disease characterised by the formation of scattered, rounded or stellate silica
-containing nodules of scar tissue in the lungs ranging from microscopic to 1.0 cm or
more. The nodules isolate the inhaled silica particles and protect the surrounding normal
and functioning tissue from continuing injury. Simple silicosis (in which the nodules are
less than 1.0 cm in diameter) is generally asymptomatic but may be slowly progressive
even in the absence of continuing exposure. Simple silicosis can develop in complicated
silicoses (in which nodules are greater than 1.0 cm in diameter) and can produce
disabilities including an associated tuberculous infection (which 50 years ago accounted
for 75% of the deaths among silicotic workers). The question of potential carcinogenicity
associated with chronic inhalation of crystalline silica remains equivocal with some
studies supporting the proposition and others finding no significant association. The
results of recent epidemiological studies suggest that lung cancer risk is elevated only
in those patients with overt silicosis. Chronic inhalation in rats by single or repeated
intratracheal instillation produced a significant increase in the incidences of
adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas of the lung. Lifetime inhalation of
crystalline silica (87% alpha-quartz) at 1 mg/m3 (74% respirable) by rats, produced an
increase in animals with keratinising cystic squamous cell tumours, adenomas,
adenocarcinomas, adenosquamous cell carcinomas, squamous cell carcinoma and nodular
bronchiolar alveolar hyperplasia accompanied by extensive subpleural and peribronchiolar
fibrosis, increased pulmonary collagen content, focal lipoproteinosis and macrophage
infiltration. Thoracic and abdominal malignant lymphomas developed in rats after single
intrapleural and intraperitoneal injection of suspensions of several types of quartz.
NOTE: Some jurisdictions require health surveillance be conducted on workers
occupationally exposed to silica, crystalline.
Such surveillance should emphasise
- demography, occupational and medical history and health advice
- standardised respiratory function tests such as FEV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC
- standardised respiratory function tests such as FV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC
- chest X-ray, full size PA view (v) records of personal exposure.
Dusts from the dried materials may contain crystalline silica

The material may be irritating to the eye, with prolonged contact causing inflammation.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to irritants may produce conjunctivitis.
The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may
produce a contact dermatitis (nonallergic). This form of dermatitis is often
characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling epidermis. Histologically there may
be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the
epidermis.
