Its exact composition depends on the source of the crude oil from which it was produced and the refining methods used. Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel contains hundreds of individual organic chemicals. This section identifies only some of the well-known chemical constituents. *Sulphur: < 15 ppm *Hydrogen sulphide: Nil 4. First Aid Measures Inhalation IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON CENTER/doctor if you feel unwell. Skin contact IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Specific treatment (see information on this label). Eye contact Flush with cool water. Remove contact lenses, if applicable, and continue flushing. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists. Ingestion IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Do NOT induce vomiting.

Indication of immediate Symptoms may be delayed. medical attention and special treatment needed General information Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Keep away from sources of ignition. No smoking. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wear rubber gloves and safety glasses with side shields. Keep out of reach of children. 5. Fire Fighting Measures Suitable extinguishing media Carbon dioxide. Dry chemical. Foam. Unsuitable extinguishing Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. media Specific hazards arising from Container may explode in heat of fire. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may the chemical travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash back. Special protective equipment Firefighters should wear full protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. and precautions for firefighters Fire-fighting Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. equipment/instructions Specific methods Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. General fire hazards Flammable liquid and vapor. Hazardous combustion May include and are not limited to: Oxides of carbon. Oxides of nitrogen. Polycyclic aromatic products hydrocarbons (PAHs). Aromatic hydrocarbons. 6. Accidental Release Measures Personal precautions, Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep out of low areas. Eliminate all ignition sources (no protective equipment and smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Do not touch damaged containers or spilled emergency procedures material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. Methods and materials for Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Take containment and cleaning up precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only non-sparking tools. Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Stop leak if you can do so without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal. Never return spills to original containers for re-use. Following product recovery, flush area with water. Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Environmental precautions Do not discharge into lakes, streams, ponds or public waters. 7. Handling and Storage Precautions for safe handling Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Do not handle, store or open near an open flame, sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Avoid prolonged exposure. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Wash thoroughly after handling. When handling, do not eat, drink or smoke. Conditions for safe storage, Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. including any incompatibilities Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep out of reach of children. 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Occupational exposure limits Canada.
