Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 [CLP] Annex VI Nota L applies to the base oil(s) in this product. Nota L - The classification as a carcinogen need not apply if it can be shown that the substance contains less than 3 % DMSO extract as measured by IP 346.
First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If casualty is unconscious and: If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. Maintain an open airway.
Symptoms: difficulty breathing
Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Handle with care and dispose of in a safe manner.
Symptoms: skin irritation, swelling or redness
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
Symptoms: irritation, blurred vision or swelling
Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Symptoms: aspiration
Immediate Medical Attention
Accidental high pressure injection through the skin requires immediate medical attention. Do not wait for symptoms to develop. Seek professional medical attention or send the casualty to a hospital. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately.
Medical Treatment
Due to low viscosity there is a risk of aspiration if the product enters the lungs. Treat symptomatically.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Use dry chemical,CO₂,water spray (fog) or foam.
Do not use direct water jets on the burning product; they could cause splattering and spread the fire. Simultaneous use of foam and water on the same surface is to be avoided as water destroys the foam.
In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst. This substance will float and can be reignited on surface water.
Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Firefighter Protection
Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode. Clothing for fire-fighters (including helmets, protective boots and gloves) conforming to European standard EN 469 will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Avoid breathing vapour or mist. Keep non-involved personnel away from the area of spillage. Alert emergency personnel. Except in case of small spillages, the feasibility of any actions should always be assessed and advised, if possible, by a trained, competent person in charge of managing the emergency. Stop leak if safe to do so. Avoid direct contact with the product. Stay upwind/keep distance from source. In case of large spillages, alert occupants in downwind areas.
Normal antistatic working clothes are usually adequate.
Alert occupants in downwind areas. Full body suit of chemically resistant and thermal resistant material should be used.
Water polluting material. May be harmful to the environment if released in large quantities. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Collect spilled product by absorbing with specific floating absorbents. Collect the product by skimming or other suitable mechanical means.
Materials: specific floating absorbents

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Do not ingest. Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Keep in the original container or an approved alternative made from a compatible material, kept tightly closed when not in use. Prevent the risk of slipping. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Avoid splash filling of bulk volumes when handling hot liquid product. Empty containers retain product residue and can be hazardous.
Storage area layout, tank design, equipment and operating procedures must comply with the relevant regional, national or local legislation. Storage installations should be designed with adequate bunds in case of leaks or spills. Cleaning, inspection and maintenance of internal structure of storage tanks must be done only by properly equipped and qualified personnel as defined by national, local or company regulations. Store locked up. Protect from sunlight.
Ensure that proper housekeeping measures are in place. Contaminated materials should not be allowed to accumulate in the workplaces and should never be kept inside the pockets. Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Change contaminated clothes at the end of working shift.
Take precautionary measures against static discharge.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Mechanical ventilation and local exhaust will reduce exposure via the air. Use oil resistant material in construction of handling equipment. Store under recommended conditions and if heated, temperature control equipment should be used to avoid overheating.
4 - 8 hours (breakthrough time): nitrile rubber
Recommended: Safety glasses with side shields.
Respirator selection must be based on known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working limits of the selected respirator. Use a properly fitted, particulate filter respirator complying with an approved standard if a risk assessment indicates this is necessary.
Wear protective clothing if there is a risk of skin contact. Change contaminated clothes at the end of working shift. Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist before handling this product.
Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
