Emergency Overview
Appearance & Odor: Blue semi-solid to solid grease with a faint petroleum odor
As defined by OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard, this product is nonhazardous.
Potential Health Effects:
May cause irritation.
EYE:
Repeated or prolonged contact can result in drying of the skin.
SKIN:
Heating can generate vapors that may cause respiratory irritation, nausea and
INHALATION:
headaches. Inhalation hazard at room temperature is unlikely due to the low
volatility of this product.
Can cause stomach ache and vomiting. Main hazard, if ingested, is aspiration into
INGESTION:
the lungs and subsequent pneumonitis.

Section 5: Fire-Fighting Measures
Flammable Properties: This product is nonflammable.
Flash Point: > 450 F (COC) Upper Explosive Limit: ND
Autoignition Temperature: ND Lower Explosive Limit: ND
CO2, dry chemical, sand, dolomite, alcohol resistant foam, water spray
Suitable Extinguishing Media:
Oxides of carbon. Sulfur.
Products of Combustion:
Firefighters should wear self-contained, NIOSH-approved breathing apparatus for
Protection of Fire-Fighters:
protection against suffocation and possible toxic decomposition products. Proper eye
and skin protection should be provided. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed
containers cool and to knock down vapors which may result from product
decomposition. Avoid water in straight hose stream as it will scatter and spread fire.
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Minimize skin contact.
Personal Precautions:

Take precautions to prevent contamination of ground and surface waters. Do not flush
Environmental Precautions:
into sewers or storm drains. Advise authorities if product has entered waterways.
Dike area to contain spill. Ventilate the area with fresh air. If in confined
Methods for Containment & Clean-up:
space or limited air circulation area, clean-up workers should wear
appropriate respiratory protection. Recover or absorb spilled material using
an absorbent designed for chemical spills. Place used absorbents into
proper waste containers.
Section 7: Handling and Storage
Keep container away from heat, sparks, and open flame. High temperatures may produce
Handling Procedures:
irritating vapors. Eye wash station should be available at work place. Keep containers
closed when not in use. Ventilate well, especially in warmer environments.
Store in a cool dry area out of direct sunlight. Store separated from acids and oxidizing
