Shell Alvania Grease HDX 2

No treatment necessary under normal conditions of use. If symptoms persist, obtain medical advice.

Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with water and follow by washing with soap if available. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention. When using high pressure equipment, injection of product under the skin can occur. If high pressure injuries occur, the casualty should be sent immediately to a hospital. Do not wait for symptoms to develop. Obtain medical attention even in the absence of apparent wounds.

Flush eye with copious quantities of water. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.

In general no treatment is necessary unless large quantities are swallowed, however, get medical advice.

Foam, water spray or fog. Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, sand or earth may be used for small fires only.

Do not use water in a jet.

Hazardous combustion products may include: A complex mixture of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases (smoke). Carbon monoxide. Unidentified organic and inorganic compounds.

Clear fire area of all non-emergency personnel.

Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.

Shovel into a suitable clearly marked container for disposal or reclamation in accordance with local regulations.

Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid inhaling vapour and/or mists. When handling product in drums, safety footwear should be worn and proper handling equipment should be used.

Keep container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated place. Use properly labelled and closeable containers.

Properly dispose of any contaminated rags or cleaning materials in order to prevent fires.

Adequate ventilation to control airborne concentrations. Where material is heated, sprayed or mist formed, there is greater potential for airborne exposure.

Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374, US: F739) made from the following materials may provide suitable chemical protection: PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber gloves. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical resistance of glove material, glove thickness, dexterity. Always seek advice from glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced.

Wear safety glasses or full face shield if splashes are likely to occur.

No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under normal conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene practices, precautions should be taken to avoid breathing of material. If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker health, select respiratory protection equipment suitable for the specific conditions of use and meeting relevant legislation. Check with respiratory protective equipment suppliers. Where air-filtering respirators are suitable, select an appropriate combination of mask and filter. Select a filter suitable for combined particulate/organic gases and vapours [boiling point >65°C(149 °F)].

Skin protection not ordinarily required beyond standard issue work clothes.

Minimise release to the environment. An environmental assessment must be made to ensure compliance with local environmental legislation.

Stable.

Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight.

Strong oxidising agents.

Hazardous decomposition products are not expected to form during normal storage.

Recover or recycle if possible.

It is the responsibility of the waste generator to determine the toxicity and physical properties of the material generated to determine the proper waste classification and disposal methods in compliance with applicable regulations.
