Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms such as coughing or dizziness persist.
Skin Contact: Wash area with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and footwear. Seek medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses. Get medical attention if irritation continues.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth and drink water only if conscious. Get immediate medical advice.
Acute/Delayed Symptoms: Redness, mild irritation, headache, nausea from inhalation of mist or vapor at high temperatures
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide (CO₂). Water spray to cool surfaces.
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Avoid using water jet as it may spread the fire.
Specific Hazards: Combustion can produce irritating fumes, smoke, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide.
Special Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear.
Firefighting Procedures: Corner off the area and use extinguishing agents from a safe distance. Remove containers from fire area only if safe to do so.
Personal Precautions: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin and eye contact. Eliminate all ignition sources. Increase ventilation in enclosed areas.
Spill Cleanup Procedures: Stop leak if safe to approach. Absorb with inert non-combustible materials such as sand or earth. Scrape up and collect in containers for proper disposal. Use detergents to remove residues.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains, sewers, or waterways. Notify local authorities in case of significant spills.
Handling: Use only in well-ventilated locations. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin and eyes. Do not ingest.
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly sealed original containers in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas. Keep away from strong oxidizers and ignition sources. Do not store below freezing or above 40°C.
Storage Incompatibility: Keep away from acids, alkalis, and strong oxidizing agents.
Technical Measures: Implement spill containment practices and have eyewash stations or safety showers available.
OEL/TLV: No occupational exposure limit established for finished product; observe local country standards for mineral oil mists (commonly 5 mg/m³ 8-hr TWA)
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation if mist or vapors are generated
