III. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
ROUTE OF ENTRY Ingestion: Yes
Inhalation: Yes
Skin Yes
Contact:
Eye Contact: Yes
Inhalation:
Eye:
Skin:
Skin Absorption: Yes
Acute: May cause irritation of the respiratory tract, dizziness, burning
sensation in the chest, headache, nausea and drowsiness; and may
cause other central nervous system effects.
May cause eye irritation but will not injure eye tissue.
Acute: Removes skin oils which may lead to drying and irritation. Can be
absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts resulting in vomiting, diarrhea,
pneumonia and kidney failure.
Ingestion:
Chronic: May cause inflammation of the skin, vesicles may appear which
weep and form crusts. Reported cases of anaemia resulting from
destruction of bone marrow cells and death following chronic skin
application in animals. May cause burning sensation in mouth, throat and
stomach; vomiting and diarrhea, drowsiness.
If PLATINUM is aspirated into the lungs, severe lung damage or death
may result.
Teratogenic: Insufficient data.
Carcinogenic: Skin painting tests indicate that materials of similar composition have
produced skin cancer in experimental animals. The relationship of these
results to humans has not been fully established.
Mutagenic: Insufficient data.
Sensitizer: No data.
Reproductive Toxin: Insufficient data.
Synergistic Products: Unknown, but the possibility of synergistic or additive toxic effects of the
components should not be overlooked.
IV. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air, apply artificial respiration and CPR if needed.
Immediately contact physician.
Eye Contact: Flush with water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Hold eyelids open to
ensure effective cleansing. Contact physician.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Flush area with water and soap for at
least 20 minutes. Contact physician.

TRADE NAME: SYNOIL PLATINUM
Ingestion: Contact physician. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs have victim
lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration.
Special Procedures: Consult physician and/or Poison Control Centre for all exposures except
minor instances of inhalation or skin contact.
V. PROTECTIVE MEASURES
Respiratory Protection: Depends on airborne concentration; should all be NIOSH approved, half-
face or full face organic vapor cartridge respirator or self-contained
breathing apparatus.
Protective Equipment / Neoprene or nitrile gloves should be worn if contact likely. Long sleeved
Clothing: clothing should be worn to minimize skin contact. A neoprene or nitrile rain
suit may be needed in certain situations (ie: tank cleaning).
Eye Protection: Monogoggles and/or full face shield if splashing is likely.
Engineering Controls: Adequate ventilation to ensure that atmospheric concentrations do not
exceed the Occupational Exposure Limits.
VI. LEAK AND SPILL PROCEDURE
Leak and Spill Use full protective equipment. Eliminate ignition sources. Contain spill
Procedure: with inert absorbent (dry clay, sand). DO NOT use combustible material
such as sawdust. Place used absorbent in closed metal container.
Waste Disposal: Comply with Provincial and Federal regulations.
Storage: Small quantities should be stored in an approved safety solvent container
which is stored in a fire-resistant grounded cabinet vented to the
atmosphere. Storage tanks should be electrically grounded and vented to
the atmosphere. A containment dike should be build around tank.
Special Shipping None known.
