EXPOSURE


•INHALATION Dizziness. Headache.
Local exhaust.
Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
•SKIN Dry skin.
Protective gloves.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
•EYES Redness.
Safety spectacles.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
•INGESTION Diarrhoea. Nausea.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention. See Notes.

SPILLAGE DISPOSAL

STORAGE

PACKAGING & LABELLING

Ventilation. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place.
Separated from strong oxidants.

PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
AMBER VISCOUS LIQUID , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.

PHYSICAL DANGERS:


CHEMICAL DANGERS:
Reacts with strong oxidants causing fire and explosion hazard.

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS:
TLV: (oil mist, mineral) 5 mg/m3 Intended change (ACGIH 2001).


ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol and by ingestion.

INHALATION RISK:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly when dispersed.

EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE:
The substance is mildly irritating to the skin . If this liquid is swallowed, aspiration into the lungs may result in chemical pneumonitis.

EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE:
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis.

PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES

Boiling point: 150-600°C
Relative density (water = 1): about 0.84 - 0.94 at 15°C
Flash point: > 124°C
Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 3.9 - 6 (calculated)

ENVIRONMENTAL
DATA


N O T E S

A raffinate contains C20-C50 hydrocarbons with a viscosity of less than 19 cSt at 40°C (100 SUS at 100°F). Depending on the raw material and the production processes, the composition and physical properties of this solvent can vary considerably. The symptoms of chemical pneumonitis do not become manifest until a few hours or even a few days have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Note L: the EU classification as carcinogen (R45) does not apply if it can be shown that DMSO extract (IP 346) is below 3% by volume.PY8040500 refers to mineral oil, petroleum distillate, solvent refined (mild) heavy paraffinic; PY8040501 refers to mineral oil, petroleum distillate, solvent refined (severe) heavy paraffinic.Card has been partly updated in April 2005. See section EU classification.
