Inhalation: Move to fresh air, provide oxygen or artificial respiration if needed, seek medical assistance if symptoms develop
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting, rinse mouth, drink water, get medical attention if discomfort continues
Notes for Doctor: Treat symptomatically, no specific antidote known
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water spray (not water jet)
Special Hazards: Forms hazardous combustion products including CO and CO2, possible small amounts of metal oxides and organic fumes
Protective Equipment: Firefighters need self-contained breathing apparatus, protective clothing to avoid inhalation and skin exposure
Advice: Keep containers cool using water spray, prevent runoff from contaminating water sources
Personal Precautions: Wear protective gloves, goggles, avoid direct contact, ventilate area
Environmental Precautions: Prevent product from entering drains, waterways, soil
Cleanup Methods: Contain spillage, absorb with inert material (e.g., sand, earth), collect into labeled containers for disposal, clean residue with detergent and water
Disposal: Follow local, regional, and national regulations, avoid entry into environment
Safe Handling: Use only in well-ventilated areas, avoid breathing vapor or mist, handle with care to avoid spillage
Protection: Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking, do not wear contaminated clothing
Storage Conditions: Store away from direct sunlight and moisture, temperature range 0°C to 40°C, keep containers tightly closed in a dry, well-ventilated place
Incompatibility: Strong oxidizing agents, acids, bases; avoid storage near food or beverages
Permissible Exposure Limits: Mineral oil mist: OSHA PEL 5 mg/m³ (8 Hr TWA), ACGIH TLV 5 mg/m³ (8 Hr TWA)
Engineering Controls: General ventilation recommended; local exhaust where mist is generated
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety glasses with side-shields, nitrile or PVC gloves, protective work clothing
Respiratory Protection: Not usually needed, use approved respirator if airborne concentrations exceed exposure limits
Hygiene Measures: Wash exposed skin thoroughly after handling, avoid ingestion, do not smoke during use
Appearance: Semi-solid grease, color varies (light brown, amber, red, blue depending on grade)
Odor: Mild petroleum odor
pH: Not applicable
Melting Point/Drop Point: 170°C - 200°C (varies by grade)
Boiling Point: Not determined because of non-volatile nature
Flash Point: Above 200°C (base oil, ASTM D92)
Solubility in Water: Insoluble
Vapor Pressure: Negligible
Density: 0.88 – 0.92 g/cm³ (at 20°C)
Viscosity: Thick, non-flowing at room temperature
Chemical Stability: Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions
Reactivity: No dangerous reactions known under normal conditions
Conditions to Avoid: Excessive heat, ignition sources, prolonged contact with strong oxidizing agents
Decomposition: May produce smoke, CO, CO₂, metal oxides, hydrocarbons at elevated temperatures
Incompatibilities: Strong acids and bases, oxidizers
Acute Toxicity: Low toxicity via dermal, inhalation, or oral exposure (LD50 typically above 2,000 mg/kg in animal tests)
Potential Effects: Prolonged/repeated skin contact may cause mild irritation, defatting, reddening
Eye Contact: Can cause mild transient irritation, usually reversible
Inhalation: Low hazard except in poorly ventilated areas with high mist
Carcinogenicity: Base oils highly refined, not expected to be carcinogenic
Mutagenicity/Reproductive Effects: Not expected to cause genetic or reproductive effects based on available data
Sensitization: Unlikely to sensitise skin
Aquatic Toxicity: Low solubility, limited acute aquatic toxicity; does not break down quickly in environment
Mobility: Non-mobile in soil, floats on water, risk of physical fouling for aquatic life
Biodegradability: Slow, persistent in environment
Bioaccumulation: Potential due to hydrocarbon ingredients, actual risk minimal under normal use
Other Information: Avoid uncontrolled release to environment, harmful to aquatic organisms if large quantities escape
