SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Principle Routes of Exposure
Skin and eye contact are the primary routes of exposure although exposure may occur following accidental ingestion.
Health hazards
Not expected to be a health hazard when used under normal conditions. Prolonged or repeated skin contact without proper cleaning can clog the pores of the skin resulting in disorders such as oil acne/folliculitis. Aspiration into the lungs when swallowed or vomited may cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal. High-pressure injection under the skin may cause serious damage including local necrosis. Used oil may contain harmful impurities. Signs and Symptoms : If material enters lungs, signs and symptoms may include coughing, choking, wheezing, difficulty in breathing, chest congestion, shortness of breath, and/or fever. The onset of respiratory symptoms may be delayed for several hours after exposure. Local necrosis is evidenced by delayed onset of pain and tissue damage a few hours following injection. Oil acne/folliculitis signs and symptoms may include formation of black pustules and spots on the skin of exposed areas. Ingestion may result in nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhoea. Safety Hazards : Not classified as flammable but will burn.
Environmental hazards
Harmful to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.
