  3. Hazards Identification
    EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
    ------------------------------
    Appearance / Odor: transparent water-white liquid / odorless.

    OSHA Regulatory Status: this material is not hazardous according to the OSHA hazard communication standard, 29cfr 1910.1200.

    HMIS Ratings: health 0; flammability 1; reactivity 0.

    NFPA Ratings: health 0; flammability 1; instability 0.
    ------------------------------

    Potential Health Effects
    Primary Route of Exposure: Skin.

    Eye Contact: this product is minimally irritating to the eyes upon direct contact. Based on testing of similar products and/or components.

    Skin Contact: This product is not expected to cause any skin irritation upon direct single or repeated and prolonged contact; however, similar chemical composition products applied to the skin of laboratory animals resulted in minimal to slight dermal irritation.

    Inhalation: This product has a low vapor pressure and is not expected to present an inhalation hazard at ambient conditions. Caution should be taken to prevent aerosolization or misting of this product. See section 8 for oil mist exposure limits.

    Ingestion: This product is relatively non-toxic by ingestion unless aspiration occurs. This product has laxative properties and may result in abdominal cramps and diarrhea.

    Other: Exposure to a large single dose, or repeated smaller doses of mineral oil by inhalation, aspiration or ingestion leading to aspiration can lead to lipid pneumonia or lipid granuloma. These are low-grade, chronic, localized tissue reactions which are not fatal. Shortness of breath and cough are the most common symptoms.

    See section 11 - toxicological information.
  4. First Aid Measures
    Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water and continue flushing until irritation subsides. If material is hot, treat for thermal burns and seek immediate medical attention.

    Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. If material is hot, submerge injured area in cold water. If victim is severely burned, remove to a hospital immediately.

    Inhalation: This material has a low vapor pressure and is not expected to present an inhalation exposure at ambient conditions.

    Ingestion: May act as a laxative. Do not induce vomiting due to aspiration hazard. If vomiting should occur, lower head below knees to avoid aspiration. Seek immediate medical attention.
  5. Fire And Explosion Information
    Flammable Properties
    Flash Point: >370 f (187.8 C)
    Test Method: astm d-92 (coc)
    Flammable limits in air
    • upper Percent: no data available
    • lower Percent: no data available

    Autoignition Temperature: no data available
    Extinguishing Media: use dry chemical, foam, or carbon diOxide.
    Fire Fighting Measures:
    • Special Fire Fighting Procedures: water may be ineffective but can be used to cool containers exposed to heat or flame. Caution should be exercised when using water or foam as frothing may occur, especially if sprayed into containers of hot, burning liquid.
    • Unusual fire and explosion conditions: dense smoke may be generated while burning. Carbon monOxide, carbon dioxide, and other Oxides may be generated as products of combustion.
  6. Accidental Release Measures
    Personnel Safeguards: Consult health effect information in section 3, personal protection information in section 8, fire and explosion information in section 5, and stability and reactivity information in 10. Remove all sources of ignition.

    Regulatory Notifications: Notify appropriate authorities of spill.

    Containment and Clean Up: Contain spill immediately. Do not allow spill to enter sewers or watercourses. Absorb with appropriate inert material such as sand, clay, etc. Large spills may be picked up using vacuum pumps, shovels, buckets, or other means and placed in drums or other suitable containers.
  7. Handling and Storage
    Handling: Avoid breathing vapors or mist. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash clothing prior to reuse. May be slippery when spilled.

    Fire extinguishers should be kept readily available. See NFPA 30 and OSHA 1910.106--Flammable and combustible liquids.

    Storage: Do not transfer to unmarked containers. Store in closed containers away from heat, sparks, open flame, or oxidizing materials.
  8. Exposure Limits and Guidelines
    This product does not contain any components with OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits. If oil mist is generated, exposure limits apply.

    Oil mist OSHA pel: twa 5 mg/m3

    ACGIH TLV: twa 5 mg/m3; stel 10 mg/m3

    Personal Protective Equipment

    Eye/face Protection: Eye protection is not required under conditions of normal use. If material is handled such that it could be splashed into eyes, wear plastic face shield or splash-proof safety goggles.

    Skin Protection: No skin protection is required for single, short duration exposures. For prolonged or repeated exposures, use impervious clothing (boots, gloves, aprons, etc.) Over parts of the body subject to exposure. If handling hot material, use insulated protective clothing (boots, gloves, aprons, etc.).

    Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection is not required under conditions of normal use. If vapor or mist is generated when the material is heated or handled, use an organic vapor respirator with a dust and mist filter. All respirators must be NIOSH certified.

    Personal Hygiene: Consumption of food and beverage should be avoided in work areas where hydrocarbons are present. Always wash hands and face with soap and water before eating, drinking, or smoking. Engineering controls / work practices

    Ventilation: If vapor or mist is generated when the material is heated or handled, adequate ventilation in accordance with good engineering practice must be provided to maintain concentrations below the specified exposure or flammable limits.
