6. Accidental release measures

Environmental Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains and sewers.
precautions Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental pollution (sewers,
waterways, soil or air).
Personal protection in Chemical splash goggles. Chemical-resistant protective suit. Boots. Chemical-resistant gloves.
case of a large spill Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) should be used to avoid inhalation of the product.
Suggested protective clothing might not be adequate. Consult a specialist before handling this
product. CAUTION: The protection provided by air-purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive
pressure air-supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, if exposure
levels are not known, or if concentrations exceed the protection limits of air-purifying respirator.
ethods for cleaning up
Large spill Stop leak if without risk. Eliminate all ignition sources. Move containers from spill area. Approach
release from upwind. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses, basements or confined areas.
Wash spillages into an effluent treatment plant or proceed as follows. Contain and collect spillage
with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and
place in container for disposal according to local regulations (see section 13). Use spark -proof
tools and explosion-proof equipment. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Contaminated absorbent material may pose the same hazard as the spilled product. Note: see
section 1 for emergency contact information and section 13 for waste disposal.
Small spill Stop leak if without risk. Eliminate all ignition sources. Move containers from spill area. Absorb
with an inert material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Use spark -proof tools
and explosion-proof equipment. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.

7. Handling and storage

Handling Do not ingest. Never siphon by mouth. If ingested, do not induce vomiting. Put on appropriate
personal protective equipment (see section 8). Workers should wash hands and face before
eating, drinking and smoking. Do not get in eyes or on skin or clothing. Do not breathe vapor or
mist. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate respirator when ventilation is
inadequate. Do not enter storage areas and confined spaces unless adequately ventilated. Store
and use away from heat, sparks, open flame or any other ignition source. Use explosion-proof
electrical (ventilating, lighting and material handling) equipment. Use non-sparking tools. Take
precautionary measures against electrostatic discharges. To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static
electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and equipment before transferring
material.
Storage Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved area. Store away
from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (see
section 10). Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep container tightly
closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed
and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate
containment to avoid environmental contamination.

While specific OELs for certain components may be shown in this section, other components may be present in any mist, vapor or
dust produced. Therefore, the specific OELs may not be applicable to the product as a whole and are provided for guidance onl y.
Some states may enforce more stringent exposure limits.
Control Measures Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other
engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any recommended
or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas, vapor or dust concentrations
below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.
Hygiene measures Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before eating,
smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period. Appropriate techniques
should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before
reusing.
Personal protection
Eyes Avoid contact with eyes. Safety glasses with side shields.
Skin and body Avoid contact with skin and clothing. Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe vapor or mist. If ventilation is inadequate, use
a NIOSH-certified respirator with an organic vapor cartridge and P95 particulate filter.

CAUTION: The protection provided by air-purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure
air-supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, if exposure levels are not
known, or if concentrations exceed the protection limits of air-purifying respirator.
Hands Wear gloves that cannot be penetrated by chemicals or oil.

The correct choice of protective gloves depends upon the chemicals being handled, the conditions
of work and use, and the condition of the gloves (even the best chemically resistant glove will
break down after repeated chemical exposures). Most gloves provide only a short time of
protection before they must be discarded and replaced. Because specific work environments and
material handling practices vary, safety procedures should be developed for each intended
application. Gloves should therefore be chosen in consultation with the supplier/manufacturer and
with a full assessment of the working conditions.
Consult your supervisor or Standard Operating Procedure (S.O.P) for special handling instructions.

Naphthalene 2B Possible -
fuel, diesel no. 2 3 - -
IARC :
2B - Possible carcinogen to human.
3 - Not classifiable as a human carcinogen.

NTP :
Possible - Reasonably anticipated to be human carcinogens.
Other Toxicity Data Aspiration of this product into the lungs can cause chemical pneumonia and can be fatal.
Aspiration into the lungs can occur while vomiting after ingestion of this product. Do not siphon by
mouth.

Middle distillate: From skin-painting studies of petroleum distillates of similar composition and
distillate range, it has been shown that these types of materials often possess weak carcinogenic
activity in laboratory animals. In these tests, the material is painted on the shaved backs of mice
twice a week for their lifetime. The material is not washed off between applications. Therefore,
there may be a potential risk of skin cancer from prolonged or repeated skin contact with this
product in the absence of good personal hygiene. This particular product has not been tested for
carcinogenic activity, but we have chosen to be cautious in light of the findings with other distillate
streams.

Occasional skin contact with this product is not expected to have serious effects, but good
personal hygiene should be practiced and repeated skin contact avoided. This product can also be
expected to produce skin irritation upon prolonged or repeated skin contact. Personal hygiene
measures taken to prevent skin irritation are expected to be adequate to prevent risk of skin
cancer.

Diesel exhaust particulates have been classified by the National Toxicological Program (NTP) to be
a reasonably anticipated human carcinogen. Exposure should be minimized to reduce potential
risk.

Naphthalene has been reported to cause developmental toxicity in mice after oral exposure to
relatively high dose levels, but developmental toxicity was not observed in NTP (National
Toxicology Program) sponsored studies in rats and rabbits. Ingestion or inhalation of naphthalene
can result in hemolysis and other blood abnormalities, and individuals (and infants) deficient in
glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase may be especially susceptible to these effects. Inhalation of
naphthalene may cause headache and nausea. Airborne exposure can result in eye irritation.
Naphthalene exposure has been associated with cataracts in animals and humans.

Other information
Potential chronic health effects
Carcinogenicity Contains material which may cause cancer, based on animal data. Risk of cancer depends on
duration and level of exposure.
