3. Hazards Identification

Warning Statements HANDLE MATERIAL IN PRESSURE EQUIPMENT WITH CARE.

ACCIDENTAL INJECTION CAN CAUSE SERIOUS TISSUE DAMAGE
Eyes Expected to cause no more than minor eye irritation
Oral Not expected to be an ingestion problem
Inhalation Product not volatile at ambient temperatures. Vapours, mist or
fumes in high concentrations, as generated from spraying or
heating in an enclosed space, may cause eye irritation
Skin May cause skin irritation. Prolonged or frequently repeated
contact may cause more severe irritation or may cause the skin
to become cracked or dry from the defatting actionof this
material. See Long Term Toxic Effects and Section 11 for more
details
Long Term Toxic Effects Suspected cancer hazard. Contains a component(s) that may
cause cancer. Risk of cancer depends on duration and level of
exposure. See Section11 for more details.

4. First Aid Measures

Eyes Flush eyes immediately with fresh water for several minutes
while holding the eyelids open. If irritation persists, see a doctor
Skin Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Launder
contaminated clothing
Ingestion If swallowed and person is conscious, give water or milk. DO NOT
make person vomit except on advice of medical personnel. If
advice cannot be obtained, take person with container and label
to nearest emergency treatment center. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person
Inhalation This material is not expected to be an acute inhalation problem
under typical applications. However, if exposed to excessive
levels of fumes, mists or dusts, remove to fresh air and get
medical attention.
Advice to Doctor High pressure equipment can cause small, obten bloodless
puncture wounds where material may have been injected deep
into the extremity. With 24 hours, there is usually extensive
swelling, discoloration and intense pain in the affected part.
Requires immediate treatment at a surgical emergency center;
else disfigurement or amputation of the affect part may occur.

Treatment of high pressure wounds may include:1)surgical

decompression, debridement and drainage.2) broad-spectrum
antibiotic and 3) anti-inflamatory medication. See Shoo M.J. et
al. High Pressure Injection injuries of the hand . J Trauma

5. Fire Fighting Measures

Ignition Temperature, °C Not determined

Flammable Limits (% by Not determined
Volume)
Flash Point, °C Not determined
Fire Extinguishing Agents According to the US National Fire Protection Assocition Guide,
 use water spray, dry chemical, foam or carbondioxide. Water or
foam may cause frothing. Use water to cool fire-exposed
containers. If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water spray to
disperse the vapours and to provide protection for personsl
attempting to stop the leak
Explosion Hazards For fires involving this material, do not enter any enclosed or
confined space without self-contained breathing apparatus to
protect against the hazardous effects of combustion products or
oxygen deficiency

6. Accidential Release Measures

In case of Spill Shovel up material and place in a disposable container, observing

precautions outlined in this MSDS. Scrub contaminated area with
detergent and water using stiff broom or mop. Pick up liquid with
an absorbent and place in a disposable container. Avoid eye and
skin contact. Prevent contamination of groundwater or surface
water.

7. Handling and Storage

Minimum feasible handling temperatures should be maintained. Periods of exposure to high

temperatures should be minimised. Water contamination should be avoided.

8. Exposure Control/Personal Protection

Eyes No special eye protection is usually necessary

Skin Avoid prolonged or frequenlty repeated contact with this
material. Skin contact ca be minimised by wearing impervious
protective clothing including gloves. Protective clothing made
from neoprene, nitrile, or n-butyl rubber is suitable in these
applications. Exposed employees should exercise reasonable
personal clealiness; this includes cleansing exposed skin several
times daily with soap and water, and laundering or dry cleaning
soiled work clothing at least weekly.
Inhalation None required when handling at minimum feasible temperatures
Ventilation Under normal applications of this product, general dilution
ventilation is adequte
Exposure Limits None established for product.

11. Toxicological Information

General High Pressure Equipment Information: Accidental high-velocity

injection under the skin of materials of this type may result in
serious injury. Seek medical attention at once should an accident
like this occur. The initial would at the injection site may not
appear to be serious at first; but, if left untreated, could result in
disfigurement or amputation of the affected part. Take this
information with you if you seek medical treatment.

The material is of varying composition and may contain

significant amounts of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAs)
which have been shown to cause skin cancer after prolonged or
frequent contct with the skin of test animals. When a similar
material was repeatedly applied to the skin of mice, there was a
moderate increase in skin cancer. Brief of intermittent skin
contact with this product is not expected to have serious effects it
if is washed thoroughly from the skin. While normal use should
not result in any adverse effects, we strongly recommend that
the precautions outlined in this MSDS be followed to reduce skin
contact and keep inhalation of mists of vapours to a minimum.

This product contains petroleum vaccum residuum which is

similar to petroleum ashphalt. No association has been
established between industrial exposure to petroleum ashphalt
and cancer in humans. The International Agency for Research on
Cancer (IARC) has recently reviewed the carcinogenic effects of
ashphalts. They concluded that there was insufficient evidence
that undiluted, air-refined asphalt was carcinogenic to animals,
while there was limited evidence that steam-refined asphalts
were carcinogenic to animals. Additionally there was insufficient
evidence to conclude that asphalts were carcinogenic to human
beings. Studies in which mice were exposed to a variety of whole
asphalts did not result in any increased incidence of certain types
 of cancer. Brief or intermittent skin contact with this asphalt
product is not expected to produce any serious effects. While
normal handling of this product is not likely to cause cancer in
humans, skin contact and breathing of mists, fumes or vapours
should be reduced to a minimum. We strongly recommend that
the precautions outlined in this MSDS be followed when handling
this material.
