Hazchem Code 3[Y]
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spillage If spilt (bulk), contact emergency services. Wear splash-proof goggles, PVA/viton gloves, a Type A (Organic vapour)
respirator or Air-line respirator, coveralls and rubber boots. Ventilate and clear area of all unprotected personnel.
Eliminate heat and ignition sources, absorb spill with sand or similar and place in sealable containers for disposal.
Prevent spill entering drains or waterways.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Before use carefully read the product label. Use of safe work practices are recommended to avoid eye or skin contact
and inhalation. Observe good personal hygiene, including washing hands before eating. Prohibit eating, drinking and
smoking in contaminated areas (eg. if container is damaged).
Storage Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area, preferably flammables store, removed from direct sunlight, heat and ignition
sources, oxidising agents (eg. peroxides), acids (eg. nitric acid) and foodstuffs. Ensure containers are adequately
labelled, protected from physical damage and sealed when not in use. Large storage areas should have appropriate
fire protection and ventilation systems.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Health Hazard Moderate toxicity - irritant. This product has the potential to cause adverse health effects with over exposure. Use
safe work practices to avoid eye or skin contact and vapour generation - inhalation. Chronic exposure to organic
Summary
solvents may cause liver, kidney and central nervous system damage.
Eye Irritant. Exposure may result in lacrimation, irritation, pain, redness, conjunctivitis and possible corneal burns with
prolonged contact.
Inhalation Moderate toxicity. Inhalation may result in mucous membrane irritation of the nose and throat, nausea and dizziness.
Over exposure may cause breathing difficulties and unconsciousness.
Skin Irritant. Prolonged contact may result in drying and defatting of the skin, rash and dermatitis. Toxic effects may result
from skin absorption.
Ingestion Moderate toxicity. Ingestion may result in nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, fatigue, dizziness, drowsiness
and unconsciousness with large doses. Aspiration may result in chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary oedema.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Environment Aliphatic hydrocarbons behave differently in the environment depending on their size. WATER: Light aliphatics
volatilise rapidly from water (half life - few hours). Bioconcentration should not be significant. SOIL: Light aliphatics
biodegrade quickly in soil and water, heavy aliphatics biodegrade very slowly. ATMOSPHERE: Vapour-phase
aliphatics will degrade by reaction with hydroxyl radicals.
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Waste Wearing the protective equipment outlined, ensure all ignition sources are extinguished. For small quantities, absorb
on paper, sand or similar and evaporate under a fume cupboard or open area. For large volumes, atomise into

respirator is recommended if dust is generated.
WORK PRACTICES - SOLVENTS: Organic solvents may present both a health and flammability hazard. It is
recommended that engineering controls should be adopted to reduce exposure where practicable (for example, if
using indoors, ensure explosion proof extraction ventilation is available). Flammable or combustible liquids with
explosive limits have the potential for ignition from static discharge. Refer to AS 1020 (The control of undesirable
static electricity) and AS 1940 (The storage and handling of flammable and combustible liquids) for control
procedures.
EXPOSURE STANDARDS - TIME WEIGHTED AVERAGE (TWA) or WES (WORKPLACE EXPOSURE STANDARD)
(NZ): Exposure standards are established on the premise of an 8 hour work period of normal intensity, under normal
climatic conditions and where a 16 hour break between shifts exists to enable the body to eliminate absorbed
contaminants. In the following circumstances, exposure standards must be reduced: strenuous work conditions; hot,
humid climates; high altitude conditions; extended shifts (which increase the exposure period and shorten the period
of recuperation).
COLOUR RATING SYSTEM: Chem Alert reports are assigned a colour rating of Green, Amber or Red for the
purpose of providing users with a quick and easy means of determining the hazardous nature of a product. Safe
handling recommendations are provided in all Chem Alert reports so as to clearly identify how users can control the
hazards and thereby reduce the risk (or likelihood) of adverse effects. As a general guideline a Green colour rating
indicates a low hazard, an Amber colour rating indicates a moderate hazard and a Red colour rating indicates a high
hazard.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT GUIDELINES:
The recommendation for protective equipment contained within this Chem Alert report is provided as a guide only.
Factors such as method of application, working environment, quantity used, product concentration and the availability
of engineering controls should be considered before final selection of personal protective equipment is made.
HEALTH EFFECTS FROM EXPOSURE:
It should be noted that the effects from exposure to this product will depend on several factors including: frequency
and duration of use; quantity used; effectiveness of control measures; protective equipment used and method of
application. Given that it is impractical to prepare a Chem Alert report which would encompass all possible scenarios,
it is anticipated that users will assess the risks and apply control methods where appropriate.

16. OTHER INFORMATION cont.
Report Status Chem Alert reports are compiled as an independent source of information by RMT's scientific department. The
information is based on the latest chemical and toxicological research, and in compliance with relevant standards,
guidance notes and legislation (where applicable). The Chem Alert report is not intended as a replacement to the
manufacturer's original MSDS that is provided to Chem Alert subscribers for convenience. In many instances, Chem
Alert reports are compiled on behalf of manufacturers, in which case they serve as the "Manufacturer's MSDS" and
are clearly identified as such on the relevant reports.
