Section 3: Hazard Identification
Emergency overview

Appearance: Pale yellow, odorless liquid.

Immediate effects: Non hazardous in bulk liquid form at low to moderate temperature. Prolong/repeated skin contact may cause irritation/dermatitis. Heating to high temperature or mechanical actions may produce fumes which may cause irritation of the breathing passages.

Potential health effects

Primary Routes of entry: ND
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: ND
Eyes: May cause irritation.

Skin: Prolonged or repeated contact with skin may cause irritation and possible dermatitis.

Ingestion: Low toxicity on ingestion has laxative effect and is rapidly eliminated.

Inhalation: Negligible breathing hazard at normal temperatures (up to 38°C/100°F) or recommended blending temperatures.  Elevated temperatures or mechanical action may form vapors, mist and fumes. Inhalation of oil mist or vapors from hot oil may cause irritation to the upper respiratory tract. Oil deposits in the lung may lead to fibrosis and reduced pulmonary functions.

Chronic Exposure: ND

Chemical Listed As Carcinogen Or Potential Carcinogen: No

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: Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation persists get medical assistance. Keep eyelids open whilst flushing.

Skin Contact: Flush with large amounts of water. Use soap if available.
Inhalation: Using approved respiratory protection, immediately remove the affected victim from exposure. Administer artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Keep at rest. Call for prompt medical attention.

Ingestion: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.

Note to physician

Treatment: ND

Medical Conditions generally Aggravated by Exposure: ND

Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: >200°C (362°F)
Flammable Limits: ND

Auto-ignition point: 355°C (671°F)
Fire Extinguishing Media: Use water spray to cool surfaces exposed to fire. Extinguish with foam or dry chemical. Avoid spraying water directly into storage containers due to danger of boil over.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: No special protection required for small outdoor fires. Indoor fires and significant outdoor fires, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) which meets appropriate standards operated in positive pressure mode, and full turn out gear.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Containers may explode if exposed to fire.

Hazardous combustion products: Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, phosphorus oxides, smoke and irritating fumes as result of incomplete combustion. Direct water stream may cause violent frothing.

DOT Class: Not regulated.

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: In case of land spillage: Eliminate sources of ignition. Warn occupants of downwind areas of fire and explosion hazard. Keep public away. Shut off source if possible to do so without hazard. Advise police if substance has entered watercourse or sewer or has contaminated soil or vegetation. Take measures to minimize the effect on ground water. Contain spillage with sand or earth. Remove by pumping (Use explosion proof pump or hand pump) or with a suitable absorbent. If liquid is too viscous for pumping, scrape up with shovels and place in suitable containers for recycle or disposal.

In case of spillage into water: Warn occupants and shipping in downwind areas of fire and explosion hazard and request them to stay clear. Notify port or relevant authority and keep public away. Shut off source if possible to do so without hazard. Remove from surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents. If allowed by local authorities and environmental agencies, sinking and/or suitable dispersants may be used in non-confined waters.
Waste Disposal Methods: Dispose of waste according to Federal, State and Local Regulations.

Section 7: Handling and Storage
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage: Keep away from sources of ignition. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Practice good hygiene. Wash hands after handing and before eating. Launder work clothes frequently. Do not reuse empty containers without commercial cleaning or reconditioning. Combustible materials should be stored away from extreme heat and strong oxidizing agents. Store in tightly closed containers in cool, dry and well ventilated areas. Electrically earth ground all equipment containing the material.

Storage temperature: Room temperature.

Storage Pressure: ND

Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls

Ventilation required: Ensure good ventilation under all working conditions.

Personal Protection Equipment

Respiratory protection: No special respiratory protection is normally required. For high airborne concentrations with inadequate ventilation, use an approved organic vapor cartridge respirator.

Protective gloves: For casual contact PVC gloves are suitable. For direct contact of more than 2 hours, Viton or Nitrile gloves are recommended
Skin protection: Long sleeved clothing is recommended to minimize skin contact.
Eye protection: Chemical splash goggles in case of splashing.
Additional clothing and/or equipment: ND

Hygiene measures: Practice good hygiene. Wash hands after handing and before eating.
