Shell Omala S2 G 320 (Fine)

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.

Symptoms: Oil acne/folliculitis signs and symptoms may include formation of black pustules and spots on the skin of exposed areas.

Flush eye with copious quantities of water. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.

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

Symptoms: Ingestion may result in nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhoea.

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).

Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Slippery when spilt. Avoid accidents, clean up immediately.

Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Prevent from spreading or entering drains, ditches or rivers by using sand, earth, or other appropriate barriers. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.

Reclaim liquid directly or in an absorbent. Soak up residue with an absorbent such as clay, sand or other suitable material and dispose of properly.

Materials: absorbent such as clay, sand or other suitable material

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

Keep container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated place. Use properly labeled and closable containers. Store at ambient temperature.

Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.

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 concentrations to be generated. Define procedures for safe handling and maintenance of controls. Educate and train workers in the hazards and control measures relevant to normal activities associated with this product. Ensure appropriate selection, testing and maintenance of equipment used to control exposure, e.g. personal protective equipment, local exhaust ventilation. Drain down system prior to equipment break-in or maintenance. Retain drain downs in sealed storage pending disposal or subsequent recycle.

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. For continuous contact we recommend gloves with breakthrough time of more than 240 minutes with preference for >480 minutes where suitable gloves can be identified. For short-term/splash protection we recommend the same. Glove thickness should be typically greater than 0.35 mm depending on the glove make and model.

If material is handled such that it could be splashed into eyes, protective eyewear is recommended.

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 the combination of organic gases and vapours [Type A/Type P boiling point >65°C (149°F)].

Skin protection is not ordinarily required beyond standard work clothes. It is good practice to wear chemical resistant gloves.

Take appropriate measures to fulfill the requirements of relevant environmental protection legislation. Avoid contamination of the environment by following advice given in Chapter 6. If necessary, prevent undissolved material from being discharged to waste water. Waste water should be treated in a municipal or industrial waste water treatment plant before discharge to surface water. Local guidelines on emission limits for volatile substances must be observed for the discharge of exhaust air containing vapour.

Stable.

The product does not pose any further reactivity hazards in addition to those listed in the following sub-paragraph.

Reacts with strong oxidising agents.

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.
