Section 3: Hazard Identification
Emergency overview

Appearance: Clear liquid

Immediate effects: No specific hazards under normal use conditions.

Potential health effects

Primary Routes of entry: Eyes and skin.
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: Prolong or repeated exposure may give rise to dermatitis.
Eyes: Expected to be slightly irritating.

Skin: Expected to be slightly irritating. Not expected to be a skin sensitizer.

Ingestion: See Section 11

Inhalation: Contains mineral oil for which an exposure limit for oil mist applies

Chronic Exposure: Prolonged/repeated contact may cause de-fatting of the skin which can lead to dermatitis and may make the skin more susceptible to irritation and penetration by other materials.

Chemical Listed As Carcinogen Or Potential Carcinogen: None

See Toxicological Information (Section11)

Potential environmental effects

See Ecological Information (Section 12)

Section 4: First Aid Measures
If accidental overexposure is suspected

Eye(s) Contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical advice.

Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin with soap and water. If high pressure injection injuries occur, obtain medical attention immediately.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If rapid recovery does not occur, obtain medical attention.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If rapid recovery does not occur, obtain medical attention.

Note to physician

Treatment: Treat symptomatically.
