Precautionary statements
P201 - Obtain special instructions before use. P202 - Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. P260 - Do not breathe vapors, mist, or spray. P264 - Wash hands, forearms, and other exposed areas thoroughly after handling. P270 - Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P280 - Wear protective gloves, protective clothing, and eye protection. P308+P313 - If exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. P314 - Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. P405 - Store locked up. P501 - Dispose of contents/container in accordance with local, regional, national, and international regulations.
Other hazards
Exposure may aggravate individuals with pre-existing skin, kidney, liver, and pulmonary disorders. Asphalt may contain trace quantities of benzene (< 0.1%). Elevated temperature conditions may emit hydrogen sulfide, an asphalt decomposition product. If stored under heat for extended periods or significantly agitated, this material might evolve or release hydrogen sulfide, a flammable gas, which can raise and widen this material's actual flammability limits and significantly lower its auto-ignition temperature. Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic gas that can be fatal. It also has a rotten egg smell that causes odor fatigue very quickly and shouldn't be used as an indicator for the presence of gas. Risk of thermal burns on contact with molten product. Hot asphalt can release toxic Hydrogen Sulfide gas! Hydrogen Sulfide can accumulate in vapor space of tanks and vessels during transfer and storage of this material. Exposure may aggravate pre-existing eye, skin, or respiratory conditions.
