Special Properties This material will release vapors when heated above the flash point temperature that can ignite when
exposed to a source of ignition. In enclosed spaces, vapors can ignite with explosive force. Mists or
sprays may burn at temperatures below the flash point.
SMALL FIRE: Use dry chemicals, carbon dioxide, foam, water fog, or inert gas (nitrogen).
Extinguishing Media
LARGE FIRE: Use foam, water fog, or water spray. Water fog and spray are effective in cooling
containers and adjacent structures. However, water can cause frothing and/or may not extinguish the
fire. Water can be used to cool the external walls of vessels to prevent excessive pressure, autoignition
or explosion. DO NOT use a solid stream of water directly on the fire as the water may spread the fire
to a larger area.
Protection of Fire Fighters Firefighters must use full bunker gear including NIOSH-approved positive pressure self-contained
breathing apparatus to protect against potential hazardous combustion or decomposition products and
oxygen deficiencies. Withdraw immediately from the area if there is a rising sound from a venting safety
device or discoloration of vessels, tanks, or pipelines.

SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
For other health-related information, refer to the Emergency Overview on Page 1 and the Hazards Identification in Section 3 of this
MSDS.
Toxicity Data Distillates, petroleum, solvent-refined heavy paraffinic:
ORAL (LD50): Acute: >5000 mg/kg [Rat].
DERMAL (LD50): Acute: >2000 mg/kg [Rabbit].
Petroleum Hydrocarbon Distillates:
DERMAL (LD50): Acute: >3000 mg/kg [Rabbit].
INHALATION (LC50): Acute: >5.5 mg/l 8 hour(s) [Rat].
Distillates, petroleum, solvent-refined heavy paraffinic:
Mineral oil mists derived from highly refined oils are reported to have low acute and sub-acute toxicities
in animals. Effects from single and short-term repeated exposures to high concentrations of mineral oil
mists well above applicable workplace exposure levels include lung inflammatory reaction, lipoid
granuloma formation and lipoid pneumonia. In acute and sub-acute studies involving exposures to
lower concentrations of mineral oil mists at or near current work place exposure levels produced no
significant toxicological effects. In long term studies (up to two years) no carcinogenic effects have
been reported in any animal species tested. Analyses conducted by method IP 346 indicate that the
polycyclic aromatic concentration of this mineral oil is below 3.0 weight percent.
Petroleum Hydrocarbon Distillates:
Studies on laboratory animals have associated similar materials with eye and respiratory tract irritation.
Studies on laboratory animals have shown similar materials to cause skin irritation after repeated or
prolonged contact. Repeated direct application of Stoddard Solvent to the skin can produce defatting
dermatitis and kidney damage in laboratory animals. Rats developed kidney damage and elevated
blood urea nitrogen levels when exposed to a concentration of 1.9 mg/L for 65 days. The kidney
damage occurred only in male rats and appeared to involve both the tubules and glomeruli. The
significance of these animal study results to human health is unclear.

SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Ecotoxicity Analysis for ecological effects has not been conducted on this product. However, if spilled, this product
and any contaminated soil or water may be harmful to human, animal, and aquatic life. Also, the
coating action associated with petroleum and petroleum products can be harmful or fatal to aquatic life
and waterfowl.
Environmental Fate An environmental fate analysis has not been conducted on this specific product. Plants and animals
may experience harmful or fatal effects when coated with petroleum-based products. Petroleum-based
(mineral) lube oils will normally float on water. In stagnant or slow-flowing waterways, an oil layer can
cover a large surface area. As a result, this oil layer might limit or eliminate natural atmospheric oxygen
transport into the water. With time, if not removed, oxygen depletion in the waterway may be sufficient
to cause a fish kill or create an anaerobic environment.
SECTION 13: DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Hazard characteristic and regulatory waste stream classification can change with product use. Accordingly, it is the responsibility
of the user to determine the proper storage, transportation, treatment and/or disposal methodologies for spent materials and
residues at the time of disposition.
Conditions of use may cause this material to become a "hazardous waste", as defined by federal or
state regulations. It is the responsibility of the user to determine if the material is a "hazardous waste"
at the time of disposal. Transportation, treatment, storage, and disposal of waste material must be
conducted in accordance with RCRA regulations (see 40 CFR 260 through 40 CFR 271). State and/or
local regulations may be more restrictive. Contact the RCRA/Superfund Hotline at (800) 424-9346 or
your regional US EPA office for guidance concerning case specific disposal issues. Empty drums and
pails retain residue. DO NOT pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose this product's
empty container to heat, flame, or other ignition sources. DO NOT attempt to clean it. Empty drums
