First-aid measures

Skin: Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water after contact. Change contaminated clothing and dry-clean and launder before re-use.Eyes: Wash eyes thoroughly with copious quantities of water, ensuring eyelids are held open. Obtain medical advice if any pain or redness develops or persists.If swallowed: If contamination of the mouth occurs, wash it out thoroughly with water. Obtain medical advice if large amounts are swallowed - do not induce vomiting.Inhalation: If inhalation of mists, fumes or vapour causes irritation to the nose or throat, or coughing, remove to fresh air. Obtain medical advice if symptoms persist.

Fire-fighting measures

As with all mineral oil based products, this material is combustible. Contain the spill and blanket with extinguishing agent. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers and as a protective screen. Extinguish using dry powder, foam, water fog or (for small fires) carbon dioxide. Note that use of BCF/halon extinguishers is now considered environmentally unacceptable. Fires in confined spaces should be dealt with by trained personnel wearing breathing apparatus.

Accidental release measures

Large spillages must be notified to the appropriate authorities. As this material is combustable remove any sources of ignition. Do not wash or allow spilled material to enter drainage systems. Contain and recover spillage by pumping or by using sand, sawdust or other suitable absorbents. Dispose of recovered material and contaminated absorbents in an approved manner. Spilled material may make surfaces slippery and thus be hazardous.

Handling and storage

Handling: Protective clothing, including imperious gloves, should be worn if skin contact is anticipated. Wear a face visor or goggles if eye contact can accidentally occur. Protective clothing should be regularly inspected and maintained; overalls should be dry-cleaned and laundered. Discard oil-saturated leather articles.Storage: Store at ambient temperature in a well-ventilated area, away from sources of ignition. Clean up any spilled material immediately. Take all precautions to avoid accidental spillage into soil or water.Specific uses: No Restriction

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure Limits: Oil Mists must be kept below 5 mg/m³Occupational Exposure Control Whilst this material is not hazardous it is recommended the following good practises are adopted.Respiratory Protection - Avoid inhalation of mists, fumes or vapour generated during use. Hand Protection - Use impervious gloves, Gloves (conforming to EN374 -3). PVC is suitable for casual contact. If direct contact for more than 2 hours then Neoprene or nitrile gloves recommended. Wash hands thoroughly after use, and always wash hands before eating, drinking or using the toilet.Eye Protection - Avoid contact with eyes. In case of splashing use suitable eye protection such as glasses, goggles or a visor.Skin Protection - Avoid contact with skin and observe good personal hygiene. Change heavily contaminated clothing. Use single-use disposable cloths and discard when soiled.Environmental Exposure ControlLarge spillages must be notified to the appropriate authorities. Dispose of recovered material and contaminated absorbents in an approved manner. Waste or surplus oil, or oil-contaminated materials, may be disposed of by incineration, land-fill or other suitable means approved by the Local Authority.

Stability and reactivity

Stable at ambient temperatures.Conditions to avoid: CombustionMaterials to avoid: Avoid contact with strong oxidising agentsHazardous decomposition products: Thermal decomposition can produce a variety of compounds, the precise nature of which will depend on the decomposition conditions. Incomplete combustion will generate smoke and hazardous gases, including carbon monoxide

Disposal considerations

Waste or surplus oil, or oil-contaminated materials, may be disposed of by incineration, land-fill or other suitable means approved by the Local Authority.
