SWALLOWED
If spontaneous vomiting appears imminent or occurs, hold patient's head down, lower than
their hips to help avoid possible aspiration of vomitus.
- 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.
Avoid giving milk or oils.
Avoid giving alcohol.
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.

resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
- Transport to hospital, or doctor.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
Treat symptomatically.
Any material aspirated during vomiting may produce lung injury. Therefore emesis should
not be induced mechanically or pharmacologically. Mechanical means should be used if it
is considered necessary to evacuate the stomach contents; these include gastric lavage
after endotracheal intubation. If spontaneous vomiting has occurred after ingestion, the
patient should be monitored for difficult breathing, as adverse effects of aspiration
into the lungs may be delayed up to 48 hours.
For acute or short term repeated exposures to petroleum distillates or related
hydrocarbons:
- Primary threat to life, from pure petroleum distillate ingestion and/or inhalation, is
respiratory failure.
- Patients should be quickly evaluated for signs of respiratory distress (e.g. cyanosis,
tachypnoea, intercostal retraction, obtundation) and given oxygen. Patients with
inadequate tidal volumes or poor arterial blood gases (pO2 50 mm Hg) should be intubated.
- Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and
electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported; intravenous lines
and cardiac monitors should be established in obviously symptomatic patients. The lungs
excrete inhaled solvents, so that hyperventilation improves clearance.
- A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and
circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax.
- Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm because of
potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled cardioselective
bronchodilators (e.g. Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred agents, with aminophylline a
second choice.
- Lavage is indicated in patients who require decontamination; ensure use of cuffed
endotracheal tube in adult patients. [Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].

MATERIAL DATA
Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on
the eyes, nose or throat. Historically occupational exposure standards for these
irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to various airborne
concentrations. Present day expectations require that nearly every individual should be
protected against even minor sensory irritation and exposure standards are established
using uncertainty factors or safety factors of 5 to 10 or more. On occasion animal no

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
-observable-effect-levels (NOEL) are used to determine these limits where human results
are unavailable. An additional approach, typically used by the TLV committee (USA) in
determining respiratory standards for this group of chemicals, has been to assign ceiling
values (TLV C) to rapidly acting irritants and to assign short-term exposure limits (TLV
STELs) when the weight of evidence from irritation, bioaccumulation and other endpoints
combine to warrant such a limit. In contrast the MAK Commission (Germany) uses a five
-category system based on intensive odour, local irritation, and elimination half-life.
However this system is being replaced to be consistent with the European Union (EU)
Scientific Committee for Occupational Exposure Limits (SCOEL); this is more closely
allied to that of the USA.
OSHA (USA) concluded that exposure to sensory irritants can:
- cause inflammation
- cause increased susceptibility to other irritants and infectious agents
- lead to permanent injury or dysfunction
- permit greater absorption of hazardous substances and
- acclimate the worker to the irritant warning properties of these substances thus
increasing the risk of overexposure.

GUM TURPENTINE:
Odour Threshold: 100 ppm
Turpentine is a skin and mucous irritant and skin contact has been
associated with eczema. It also produces central nervous (CNS) depression.
The TLV-TWA is thought to be protective against upper respiratory tract
irritation.
Human subjects exposed to 750 to 1000 ppm turpentine vapour complained
of ocular irritation, headache, dizziness, nausea and tachycardia.
Volunteers exposed to turpentine vapour for 3 to 5 minutes showed
nose and throat irritation at 75 ppm whilst 175 ppm was intolerable for
the majority. A majority of subjects estimated 100 ppm to be the highest
concentration which could be tolerated for an 8 hour exposure.
CARNAUBA WAX:

TLV TWA: 10 mg/m3
ES TWA: 10 mg/m3
OSHA PEL TWA: 15 mg/m3, total particulate; 5 mg/m3, respirable particulate
The common vegetable oil mists are considered "nuisance" particulates which have
little adverse effect on the lung. They do not produce toxic effects or significant
organic disease when exposures are kept under reasonable control. Direct instillation of
vegetable oils into rabbit lungs produces acute bronchitis whilst high oral doses are
laxatives.

PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE
- Safety glasses with side shields.
- 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
Polyethylene gloves.
Wear chemical protective gloves, eg. PVC.
Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, eg. Rubber.
NOTE: The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must
be taken, when removing gloves and other protective equipment, to avoid all possible skin
contact.
OTHER
- Overalls.
- P.V.C. apron.
- Barrier cream.
- Skin cleansing cream.
- Eye wash 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.

with nausea and vomiting, weakness or dizziness, slow and shallow respiration, swelling
of the abdomen, unconsciousness and convulsions. Myocardial injury may produce
arrhythmias, ventricular fibrillation and electrocardiographic changes. Central nervous
system depression may also occur. Light aromatic hydrocarbons produce a warm, sharp,
tingling sensation on contact with taste buds and may anaesthetise the tongue. Aspiration
into the lungs may produce coughing, gagging and a chemical pneumonitis with pulmonary
oedema and haemorrhage.
EYE
Petroleum hydrocarbons may produce pain after direct contact with the eyes. Slight, but
transient disturbances of the corneal epithelium may also result. The aromatic fraction
may produce irritation and lachrymation.
Limited evidence or practical experience suggests, that the material may cause eye
irritation in a substantial number of individuals. Repeated or prolonged eye contact may
cause inflammation characterised by temporary redness (similar to windburn) of the
conjunctiva (conjunctivitis); temporary impairment of vision and/or other transient eye
damage/ulceration may occur.
SKIN
Repeated exposure may cause skin cracking, flaking or drying following normal handling
and use.
Entry into the blood-stream, through, for example, cuts, abrasions or lesions, may
produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use of the
material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
INHALED
Acute effects from inhalation of high concentrations of vapour are pulmonary irritation,
including coughing, with nausea; central nervous system depression - characterised by
headache and dizziness, increased reaction time, fatigue and loss of co-ordination.
If exposure to highly concentrated solvent atmosphere is prolonged this may lead to
narcosis, unconsciousness, even coma and possible death.
Inhalation of vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness. This may be accompanied by
narcosis, reduced alertness, loss of reflexes, lack of coordination and vertigo.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Harmful: danger of serious damage to health
by prolonged exposure through inhalation.
Serious damage (clear functional disturbance or morphological change which may have
toxicological significance) is likely to be caused by repeated or prolonged exposure. As
a rule the material produces, or contains a substance which produces severe lesions. Such
damage may become apparent following direct application in subchronic (90 day) toxicity
studies or following sub-acute (28 day) or chronic (two-year) toxicity tests.
Repeated or prolonged exposure to mixed hydrocarbons may produce narcosis with dizziness,
weakness, irritability, concentration and/or memory loss, tremor in the fingers and
tongue, vertigo, olfactory disorders, constriction of visual field, paraesthesias of the
extremities, weight loss and anaemia and degenerative changes in the liver and kidney.
Chronic exposure by petroleum workers, to the lighter hydrocarbons, has been associated
with visual disturbances, damage to the central nervous system, peripheral neuropathies
(including numbness and paraesthesias), psychological and neurophysiological deficits,
bone marrow toxicities (including hypoplasia possibly due to benzene) and hepatic and
renal involvement. Chronic dermal exposure to petroleum hydrocarbons may result in
defatting which produces localised dermatoses. Surface cracking and erosion may also
increase susceptibility to infection by microorganisms. One epidemiological study of
petroleum refinery workers has reported elevations in standard mortality ratios for skin
cancer along with a dose-response relationship indicating an association between routine
workplace exposure to petroleum or one of its constituents and skin cancer, particularly

melanoma. Other studies have been unable to confirm this finding.
One of the constituents of the product has produced skin sensitisation reactions in
either experimental animals and/or humans. Such reactions may be manifested as a
localised reddening and/or urticaria (a hive-like asthma-like symptoms (shortness of
breath, difficult breathing) and/or rhinitis (runny nose). This finding, however, remains
speculative as the constituent has not been shown to raise specific antibodies in the
blood in the same way as other confirmed allergens. The finding may also be confined to
certain hypersensitive (atopic) individuals who show heightened reactions to other
allergens such as pollen.

Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The lower molecular weight hydrocarbons are expected to form a "slick" on the surface of
waters after release in calm sea conditions. This is expected to evaporate and enter the
atmosphere where it will be degraded through reaction with hydroxy radicals.
Some of the material will become associated with benthic sediments, and it is likely to
be spread over a fairly wide area of sea floor. Marine sediments may be either aerobic or
anaerobic. The material, in probability, is biodegradable, under aerobic conditions
(isomerised olefins and alkenes show variable results). Evidence also suggests that the
hydrocarbons may be degradable under anaerobic conditions although such degradation in
benthic sediments may be a relatively slow process.
Under aerobic conditions the material will degrade to water and carbon dioxide, while
under anaerobic processes it will produce water, methane and carbon dioxide.
Based on test results, as well as theoretical considerations, the potential for
bioaccumulation may be high. Toxic effects are often observed in species such as blue
mussel, daphnia, freshwater green algae, marine copepods and amphipods.
