CHEMWATCH 21-9213 Version No:2.0 CD 2009/2 Page 2 of 5 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. 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. SKIN ■ If skin contact occurs: - Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear. - Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). INHALED ■ - If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area. - Other measures are usually unnecessary. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN ■ Treat symptomatically. - Heavy and persistent skin contamination over many years may lead to dysplastic changes. Pre-existing skin disorders may be aggravated by exposure to this product. - In general, emesis induction is unnecessary with high viscosity, low volatility products, i.e. most oils and greases.
Section 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES EXTINGUISHING MEDIA ■ - Foam. - Dry chemical powder. FIRE FIGHTING ■ - Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. - Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves. FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD ■ - Combustible. - Slight fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame. Decomposes on heating and produces toxic fumes of: carbon dioxide (CO2), other pyrolysis products typical of burning organic material. FIRE INCOMPATIBILITY ■ - Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result. PERSONAL PROTECTION Glasses: Chemical goggles. Gloves: General purpose rubber glove. Respirator: Type A-P Filter of sufficient capacity
Section 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES MINOR SPILLS ■ Slippery when spilt. - Remove all ignition sources. - Clean up all spills immediately. MAJOR SPILLS ■ Slippery when spilt. Remove all ignition sources. Minor hazard. - Clear area of personnel. - Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Personal Protective Equipment advice is contained in Section 8 of the MSDS.
Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING ■ Remove all ignition sources. - Limit all unnecessary personal contact.

CHEMWATCH 21-9213 Version No:2.0 CD 2009/2 Page 3 of 5 Section 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
- Wear protective clothing when risk of exposure occurs. SUITABLE CONTAINER ■ - Polyethylene or polypropylene container. - Packing as recommended by manufacturer. STORAGE INCOMPATIBILITY ■ Avoid storage with oxidisers. CARE: Water in contact with heated material may cause foaming or a steam explosion with possible severe burns from wide scattering of hot material. Resultant overflow of containers may result in fire. STORAGE REQUIREMENTS ■ - Store in original containers. - Keep containers securely sealed.
Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION EXPOSURE CONTROLS Source ___________ New Zealand Workplace Exposure Standards (WES)
Material ___________ paraffinic distillate, heavy, solvent- dewaxed (severe) (Oil mist, mineral)
TWA mg/m³ _______ 5
STEL mg/m³ _______ 10
PERSONAL PROTECTION RESPIRATOR Type A-P Filter of sufficient capacity EYE ■ - Safety glasses with side shields; or as required, - Chemical goggles. HANDS/FEET ■ Wear general protective gloves, eg. light weight rubber gloves. OTHER ■ - Overalls. - Eyewash unit. ENGINEERING CONTROLS ■ General exhaust is adequate under normal operating conditions. If risk of overexposure exists, wear SAA approved respirator.

Section 10 - CHEMICAL STABILITY AND REACTIVITY INFORMATION CONDITIONS CONTRIBUTING TO INSTABILITY ■ - Presence of incompatible materials. - Product is considered stable. For incompatible materials - refer to Section 7 - Handling and Storage.
Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS SWALLOWED ■ Although ingestion is not thought to produce harmful effects (as classified under EC Directives), the material may still be damaging to the health of the individual, following ingestion, especially where pre-existing organ (e.g liver, kidney) damage is evident. Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally based on doses producing mortality rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-health). EYE ■ Although the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn). SKIN ■ The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting. INHALED ■ The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable control measures be used in an occupational setting. CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS ■ Principal route of exposure is by skin contact; lesser exposures include inhalation of fumes from hot oils, oil mists or droplets. Prolonged contact with mineral oils carries with it the risk of skin conditions such as oil folliculitis, eczematous dermatitis, pigmentation of the face (melanosis) and warts on the sole of the foot (plantar warts). TOXICITY AND IRRITATION ■ Not available. Refer to individual constituents. PARAFFINIC DISTILLATE, HEAVY, SOLVENT-DEWAXED (SEVERE): ■ unless otherwise specified data extracted from RTECS - Register of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances. ■ No data of toxicological significance identified in literature search. The substance is classified by IARC as Group 3: NOT classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans. Evidence of carcinogenicity may be inadequate or limited in animal testing. MINERAL OIL: ■ unless otherwise specified data extracted from RTECS - Register of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances. ■ Toxicity and Irritation data for petroleum-based mineral oils are related to chemical components and vary as does the composition and source of the original crude. A small but definite risk of occupational skin cancer occurs in workers exposed to persistent skin contamination by oils over a period of years.
