| 2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION | |
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:
APPEARANCE: LIQUID, AMBER
CAUTION!
PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT MAY DRY THE SKIN AND CAUSE IRRITATION AND
BURNS.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
INHALATION, SKIN ABSORPTION, SKIN CONTACT, EYE CONTACT, INGESTION
EYE CONTACT: UNLIKELY TO CAUSE EYE IRRITATION OR INJURY.
SKIN CONTACT:
UNLIKELY TO CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION OR INJURY. PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT
MAY DRY AND CRACK THE SKIN.
INGESTION:
SWALLOWING SMALL AMOUNTS OF THIS MATERIAL DURING NORMAL HANDLING IS NOT
LIKELY TO CAUSE HARMFUL EFFECTS. SWALLOWING LARGE AMOUNTS MAY BE HARMFUL.
INHALATION:
IT IS POSSIBLE TO BREATHE THIS MATERIAL UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF
HANDLING AND USE (FOR EXAMPLE, DURING HEATING, SPRAYING, OR STIRRING).
BREATHING SMALL AMOUNTS OF THIS MATERIAL DURING NORMAL HANDLING IS NOT
LIKELY TO CAUSE HARMFUL EFFECTS. BREATHING LARGE AMOUNTS MAY BE HARMFUL.
SYMPTOMS ARE NOT EXPECTED AT AIR CONCENTRATIONS BELOW THE RECOMMENDED
EXPOSURE LIMITS, IF APPLICABLE (SEE SECTION 8.).
AGGRAVATED MEDICAL CONDITION:
PREEXISTING DISORDERS OF THE FOLLOWING ORGANS (OR ORGAN SYSTEMS) MAY BE
AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE TO THIS MATERIAL:
SKIN, LUNG (FOR EXAMPLE, ASTHMA-LIKE CONDITIONS)
SYMPTOMS:
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE TO THIS MATERIAL THROUGH BREATHING,
SWALLOWING, AND/OR PASSAGE OF THE MATERIAL THROUGH THE SKIN MAY INCLUDE:
STOMACH OR INTESTINAL UPSET (NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIARRHEA), IRRITATION
(NOSE, THROAT, AIRWAYS)
TARGET ORGANS: NO DATA
CARCINOGENICITY:
THIS MATERIAL IS NOT LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN BY THE INTERNATIONAL AGENCY
FOR RESEARCH ON CANCER (IARC), THE NATIONAL TOXICOLOGY PROGRAM (NTP), OR
THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION (OSHA). USED MOTOR OIL
HAS BEEN SHOWN TO CAUSE SKIN CANCER IN LABORATORY ANIMALS CONTINUALLY
EXPOSED BY REPEATED APPLICATIONS. AVOID PROLONGED OR REPEATED SKIN
CONTACT.
REPRODUCTIVE HAZARD:
THERE ARE NO DATA AVAILABLE FOR ASSESSING RISK TO THE FETUS FROM MATERNAL
EXPOSURE TO THIS MATERIAL.
| 3. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS | |
COMPONENTS CAS-NO. CONCENTRATION
| 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
EYES:
IF SYMPTOMS DEVELOP, IMMEDIATELY MOVE INDIVIDUAL AWAY FROM EXPOSURE AND
INTO FRESH AIR. FLUSH EYES GENTLY WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES WHILE
HOLDING EYELIDS APART; SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
SKIN:
REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. FLUSH EXPOSED AREA WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF
WATER. IF SKIN IS DAMAGED, SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. IF SKIN IS
NOT DAMAGED AND SYMPTOMS PERSIST, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. LAUNDER CLOTHING
BEFORE REUSE.
INGESTION:
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. IF INDIVIDUAL IS DROWSY OR UNCONSCIOUS, DO NOT
GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH; PLACE INDIVIDUAL ON THE LEFT SIDE WITH THE HEAD
DOWN. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN, MEDICAL FACILITY, OR POISON CONTROL CENTER FOR
ADVICE ABOUT WHETHER TO INDUCE VOMITING. IF POSSIBLE, DO NOT LEAVE
INDIVIDUAL UNATTENDED.
INHALATION:
IF SYMPTOMS DEVELOP, MOVE INDIVIDUAL AWAY FROM EXPOSURE AND INTO FRESH
AIR. IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. IF BREATHING IS
DIFFICULT, ADMINISTER OXYGEN. KEEP PERSON WARM AND QUIET; SEEK IMMEDIATE
MEDICAL ATTENTION.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN:
HAZARDS:
ACUTE ASPIRATION OF LARGE AMOUNTS OF OIL-LADEN MATERIAL MAY PRODUCE A
SERIOUS ASPIRATION PNEUMONIA. PATIENTS WHO ASPIRATE THESE OILS SHOULD BE
FOLLOWED FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LONG-TERM SEQUELAE. REPEATED ASPIRATION OF
SMALL QUANTITIES OF MINERAL OIL CAN PRODUCE CHRONIC INFLAMMATION OF THE
LUNGS (I.E. LIPOID PNEUMONIA) THAT MAY PROGRESS TO PULMONARY FIBROSIS.
SYMPTOMS ARE OFTEN SUBTLE AND RADIOLOGICAL CHANGES APPEAR WORSE THAN
CLINICAL ABNORMALITIES. OCCASIONALLY, PERSISTENT COUGH, IRRITATION OF THE
UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT, SHORTNESS OF BREATH WITH EXERTION, FEVER, AND
BLOODY SPUTUM OCCUR. INHALATION EXPOSURE TO OIL MISTS BELOW CURRENT
WORKPLACE EXPOSURE LIMITS IS UNLIKELY TO CAUSE PULMONARY ABNORMALITIES.
TREATMENT: NO INFORMATION AVAILABLE.
| 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES | |
SUITABLE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2), DRY CHEMICAL
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS:
CARBON DIOXIDE AND CARBON MONOXIDE, OXIDES OF SULFUR, NITROGEN AND
PHOSPHORUS
PRECAUTIONS FOR FIRE-FIGHTING:
WEAR FULL FIREFIGHTING TURN-OUT GEAR (FULL BUNKER GEAR), AND RESPIRATORY
PROTECTION (SCBA). DO NOT DIRECT A SOLID STREAM OF WATER OR FOAM INTO HOT,
BURNING POOLS OF LIQUID SINCE THIS MAY CAUSE FROTHING AND INCREASE FIRE
INTENSITY. FROTHING CAN BE VIOLENT AND POSSIBLY ENDANGER ANY FIREFIGHTER
STANDING TOO CLOSE TO THE BURNING LIQUID. USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL FIRE
EXPOSED CONTAINERS AND STRUCTURES UNTIL FIRE IS OUT IF IT CAN BE DONE WITH
MINIMAL RISK. AVOID SPREADING BURNING LIQUID WITH WATER USED FOR COOLING
PURPOSES.
FLAMMABILITY CLASS FOR FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS: COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID CLASS IIIB
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS:
FOR PERSONAL PROTECTION SEE SECTION 8. PERSONS NOT WEARING PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE EXCLUDED FROM AREA OF SPILL UNTIL CLEAN-UP HAS BEEN
COMPLETED.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS:
PREVENT SPREADING OVER A WIDE AREA (E.G. BY CONTAINMENT OR OIL BARRIERS).
DO NOT LET PRODUCT ENTER DRAINS. DO NOT FLUSH INTO SURFACE WATER OR
SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM.
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP:
KEEP IN SUITABLE, CLOSED CONTAINERS FOR DISPOSAL. SOAK UP WITH INERT
ABSORBENT MATERIAL (E.G. SAND, SILICA GEL, ACID BINDER, UNIVERSAL BINDER,
SAWDUST).
OTHER INFORMATION:
COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL REGULATIONS.
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
HANDLING:
CONTAINERS OF THIS MATERIAL MAY BE HAZARDOUS WHEN EMPTIED. SINCE EMPTIED
CONTAINERS RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUES (VAPOR, LIQUID, AND/OR SOLID), ALL
HAZARD PRECAUTIONS GIVEN IN THE DATA SHEET MUST BE OBSERVED.

GOGGLES IF MATERIAL COULD BE MISTED OR SPLASHED INTO EYES.
SKIN AND BODY PROTECTION:
NOT NORMALLY REQUIRED. HOWEVER, WEAR RESISTANT GLOVES SUCH AS NITRILE
RUBBER TO PREVENT IRRITATION WHICH MAY RESULT FROM PROLONGED OR REPEATED
SKIN CONTACT WITH PRODUCT. WEAR NORMAL WORK CLOTHING INCLUDING LONG PANTS,
LONG-SLEEVED SHIRTS AND FOOT COVERING TO PREVENT DIRECT CONTACT OF THE
PRODUCT WITH THE SKIN. LAUNDER CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE. IF SKIN IRRITATION
DEVELOPS, CONTACT YOUR FACILITY HEALTH AND SAFETY PROFESSIONAL OR YOUR
