Health hazards

DATA 1. Heavy paraffin and naphthenic petroleum oils, are of low toxicity by inhalation, ingestion and dermal

Principle Routes of Exposure

Oral LD50 (rat) >15gm/kg, Dermal LD50 (rabbit) >5gm/kg 2. The most relevant exposure occurs through skin contact, which may result in dermatitis (irritation, cracking, and dry skin) with prolonged or repeated contact, and poor hygiene. Wash with soap and water after contact and use barrier creams or gloves during prolonged contact. 3. In applications were mists or vapours are generated, inhalation exposure may be significant and result in respiratory irritation, nausea, and headache. Control exposures through use of process enclosure, exhaust ventilation, and respiratory protection. Performance of industrial hygiene exposure monitoring is recommended where mists are generated, or heated product is used. Long term exposure to oil mists may result in benign lung fibrosis. 4. Accidental ingestion may result in irritation of the digestive tract, nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, diarrhea, gastric disturbances, and abdominal pain. Avoid eating and drinking in areas where product is in use. See MSDS Section 4 for emergency first aid responses. HAZARDS OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide can be found in the combustion products of this product and other forms of hydrocarbon combustion. Carbon monoxide in moderate concentrations can cause symptoms of headache, nausea, vomiting, increased cardiac output, and confusion. Exposure to higher concentrations of carbon monoxide can cause loss of consciousness, heart damage, brain damage, and/or death. Exposure to high concentrations of carbon dioxide can cause simple asphyxiation by displacing available oxygen. Combustion products may include toxic oxides of sulphur, zinc, phosphorous, lithium, or other hazardous products in trace quantities due to presence of additives.
