OIL AND GREASE

If inhaled, remove affected person from contaminated area. Keep at rest until recovered.

If there is a reaction, remove all affected clothing and wash affected area thoroughly with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse or discard.

Symptoms: reaction

If in eyes, hold eyelids apart and flush the eyes continuously with running water. Remove contact lenses. Continue flushing for several minutes until all contaminants are washed out completely.

Do not induce vomiting. Wash out mouth thoroughly with water.

Use extinguishing media suitable for surrounding environment.

Non-flammable substance, however once all the water has been driven off, it may release toxic fumes if involved in a fire. Fire-exposed containers may rupture/explode.

Fight fire from safe location.

Avoid accidents, clean up immediately.

Mop up & wash residue to drain with copious amounts of water.

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment and clothing to prevent exposure. Increase ventilation. If possible contain the spill. Place inert absorbent material onto spillage. Collect the material and place into a suitable labelled container. Do not dilute material but contain. Dispose of waste according to the applicable local and national regulations.

If contamination of sewers or waterways occurs inform the local water and waste management authorities in accordance with local regulations.

Mop up & wash residue to drain with copious amounts of water (small spill). Place inert absorbent material onto spillage. Collect the material and place into a suitable labelled container (large spill).

Materials: inert absorbent material

Avoid inhalation of vapours and mists, and skin or eye contact. Use only in a well ventilated area. Keep containers sealed when not in use. Prevent the build up of mists or vapours in the work atmosphere.

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight. Store in suitable, labelled containers. Keep containers tightly closed. Store away from incompatible materials. Ensure that storage conditions comply with applicable local and national regulations.

Maintain high standards of personal hygiene i.e. Washing hands prior to eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities.

No special engineering controls required. Industrial applications: This substance is hazardous and should be used with a local exhaust ventilation system, drawing vapours away from workers' breathing zone. If the engineering controls are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of vapours/mists below the exposure standards, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.

Not generally required. Industrial Application: Wear gloves of impervious material. Final choice of appropriate gloves will vary according to individual circumstances. i.e. methods of handling or according to risk assessments undertaken. Occupational protective gloves should conform to relevant regulations. Reference should be made to AS/NZS 2161.1 (2016): Occupational protective gloves - Selection, use and maintenance.

Not generally required. However, avoid contact with eyes. Industrial Application: Safety glasses with side shields, chemical goggles or full-face shield as appropriate should be used. Final choice of appropriate eye/face protection will vary according to individual circumstances. Eye protection devices should conform to relevant regulations. Eye protection should conform with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337 2 & 6 (2012) - Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications.

Not generally required. Industrial Application: If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure then an approved respirator with a replaceable vapor/mist filter should be used. Refer to relevant regulations for further information concerning respiratory protective requirements. Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/NZS 1715 (2009), Selection, Use and Maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716 (2012), Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any necessary changes for individual circumstances.

Not generally required. Industrial Application: Suitable protective workwear, e.g. cotton overalls buttoned at neck and wrist is recommended. Chemical resistant apron is recommended where large quantities are handled.

Stable under normal conditions of use and storage.

Reacts with incompatible materials.

Not available; Hazardous polymerization: Will not occur.

Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight.

Strong oxidising agents.

Thermal decomposition may result in the release of toxic and/or irritating fumes, smoke and gases including: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen and oxides of sulphur.
