First-aid measures

Measures indicated are for the substance at 40 - 75% concentration in synthetic oil, as marketed.

General advice: Move out of dangerous area. Consult a physician.

If inhaled: Consult a physician after significant exposure. If unconscious, place in recovery position and seek medical advice.

In case of skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. If symptoms persist, call a physician. In case of burns apply cold water until pain subsides then seek medical advice.

In case of eye contact: Small amounts splashed into eyes can cause irreversible tissue damage and blindness. In the case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Continue rinsing eyes during transport to hospital. Remove contact lenses. Protect unharmed eye. Keep eye wide open while rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/ attention.

If swallowed: Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Do NOT induce vomiting. Do not give milk or alcoholic beverages. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Take victim immediately to hospital.

Fire-fighting measures

Measures indicated are for the substance at 40 - 75% concentration in synthetic oil, as marketed.

Suitable extinguishing media: Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish flames

Unsuitable extinguishing media: High volume water jet

Combustibility: Not classified as flammable or combustible, but will combust if ignited.

Hazardous combustion products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and unburned hydrocarbons (smoke).

Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health.

Fire Fighting Instructions: Collect contaminated fire extinguishing water separately. This must not be discharged into drains. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.

Accidental release measures

Measures indicated are for the substance at 40 - 75% concentration in synthetic oil, as marketed.

Personal precautions: Advice for emergency responders

             Ensure adequate ventilation.Use personal protective equipment.Material can create slippery conditions.

                                   Advice for non-emergency personnel

             Avoid contact with spilled material. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.

Environmental precautions: Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Try to prevent the material from entering drains or water courses. If the product contaminates rivers and lakes or drains inform respective authorities.

Methods for cleaning up : Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Large Spills: Dyke far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal. Recover by pumping or with suitable absorbent Report spills as required to appropriate authorities. Seek the advice of a specialist before using dispersants. Dispose of according to local regulations. In the event of a spill or accidental release, notify relevant authorities in accordance with all applicable regulations. Material will float on water, use containment booms as a barrier to protect shorelines. Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder, sawdust). Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Clean contaminated floors and objects thoroughly while observing environmental regulations.

Handling and storage

Measures indicated are for the substance at 40 - 75% concentration in synthetic oil, as marketed.

Precautions for safe handling; Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Smoking, eating and drinking should be prohibited in the application area. Dispose of rinse water in accordance with local and national regulations. Handle and open container with care. Loading/unloading temperature: 77 °C (171 ° F) - 90 °C (194 ° F)

Conditions for safe storage:  Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. No decomposition if stored and applied as directed. Storage temperature: <= 60 °C (140 ° F)

Exposure controls / personal protection

Measures indicated are for the substance at 40 - 75% concentration in synthetic oil, as marketed.

Exposure controls: No special requirements under ordinary conditions of use and with adequate ventilation.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection: In the case of vapour formation use a respirator with an approved filter. The applicable European standard can be found in EN 140, EN 137, EN 143, EN 14387.

Hand protection: Polyvinyl alcohol or nitrile- butyl-rubber gloves Before removing gloves clean them with soap and water. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the contact time. When handling hot material, use heat resistant gloves. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

Eye/face protection: Eye wash bottle with pure water Tightly fitting safety goggles. Wear face-shield and protective suit for abnormal processing problems. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location. The applicable European standard can be found in EN 166.
