Skin Protection: Chemical resistant gloves required for prolonged or repeated contact.
Respiratory Protection: Not generally required when used as directed. Avoid breathing vapors from
concentrated product
Protective Gloves: Rubber Neoprene
Ventilation: Local mechanical exhaust or room ventilation is normally sufficient.
Store concentrated product in closed containers.
Other protective clothing or equipment: Eye wash and safety shower should be present in the work
area whenever chemicals are in use.

PERSONAL PROTECTION

EYE
Safety glasses with side shields.
Chemical goggles.
Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants.

HANDS/FEET
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of
quality which vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several
substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be
checked prior to the application. The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the
manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed when making a final choice. Suitability and
durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Contaminated gloves should be replaced. Gloves must
only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly.
Application of a non-perfumed moisturiser is recommended. Experience indicates that the following
polymers are suitable as glove materials for protection against undissolved, dry solids, where abrasive
particles are not present.
polychloroprene
nitrile rubber
butyl rubber
polyvinyl chloride Gloves should be examined for wear and/ or degradation constantly.

OTHER
Overalls.
P.V.C. apron.
Barrier cream.
Skin cleansing cream.
Eye wash unit.

RESPIRATOR
Respiratory protection is not normally needed.
The decision to use respiratory protection should be based on professional judgment that takes
into account toxicity information, exposure measurement data, and frequency and likelihood of
the worker's exposure ensure users are not subject to high thermal loads which may result in heat
stress or distress due to personal protective equipment (powered, positive flow, full face apparatus
may be an option).
Certified respirators will be useful for protecting workers from inhalation of particulates when
properly selected and fit tested as part of a complete respiratory protection program.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Toxicological information for the product is found in Section 4. HAZARDS INDENTIFICATION.

Toxicological information on the OSHA regulated components of this product is as follows:
Petroleum distillates, hydrotreated light (CAS# 64742-47-8) has acute oral (rat) and dermal (rabbit) LD50
values of >5 g/kg and >3.16 g/kg, respectively. Prolonged or repeated skin contact tends to remove skin oils,
possibly leading to irritation and dermatitis. Direct eye contact may cause eye irritation. Overexposure to high
vapor concentrations, >~700 ppm, are irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract and may cause headaches,
dizziness, drowsiness, and other central nervous system effects, including death. Aspiration of minute
amounts during ingestion or vomiting may cause mild to severe pulmonary injury and possible death. In a 90-
day oral gavage (rats) study at 100, 500, or 1000 mg/kg, no treatment-mortalities were observed. There were
no significant changed in body weights or food consumption in any dose groups. Increased liver weights were
observed in male and female rats at 500 and 1000 mg/kg. Increased kidney weights were observed only in
male rats at 500 and 1000 mg/kg. Testes weights were significantly elevated in male rats at 1000 mg/kg.
Kidney effects, indicative of light hydrocarbon nephropathy, occurred in male rat kidneys at all dose levels.
Histological findings of hepatocellular hypertrophy were seen in the livers of male rats at 1000 mg/kg and in
female rats at 500 and 1000 mg/kg. All treatment-related effects were reversible within the 4-week recovery
period. Observed kidney effects (including light hydrocarbon nephropathy and increased kidney weight) are a
unique response by male rats to chronic hydrocarbon exposure, which the U.S. EPA has declared “not relevant
to humans”.

Page 7 of 9
High dose liver effects (including hepatocellular hypertrophy, or enlarged liver cells) are a direct consequence
of the sustained high-fat “hydrocarbon diet”. The No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) for this study
was 1000 mg/kg.

12. Ecological Information

No aquatic LC50, BOD, or COD data available.

OCTANOL/H2O PARTITION COEF: Not available

ADDITIONAL ECOLOGICAL DATA

NOEC on earthworm: > 1000 mg/l (representative polymer) AOX information: Product contains no
organic halogens. Discharge in minor quantity into adapted biological units of sewage treatment plants is
not expected to affect the efficiency of the activated sludge process.

13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
