UN NO 1993
ERG NO 153
HAZCHEM CODE 2x
EAC 60

2. COMPOSITION:

HAZARDOUS COMPONENTS Hydrocarbon solvents, medium oil alkyd, inorganic and organic pigments

3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION:

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Corrosive to skin and mucous membranes.

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:


INHALATION: High vapour concentrations may be irritating to eyes, nose and respiratory
tract. May cause headaches, dizziness and nausea. Use with adequate
ventilation. Repeated inhalation may cause lung damage.
EYE CONTACT: Contact will cause irritation and/or burns.
SKIN CONTACT: May cause skin irritation and/or dermatitis.
INGESTION: May cause pulmonary damage, if aspirated into the lungs.
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP – not listed
IARC – not listed
OSHA – not listed

Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: dermatitis, existing respiratory disease and existing liver and kidney
disease.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES:

FIRST AID SKIN: Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes.
For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Flush
body with plenty of water and soap for at least 20 minutes. Keep warm
and quiet.

Director: B.J. Rodd 1


FIRST AID EYES: Flush eyes with water for 20 minutes with 1 minute of contact. Hold eyelids
open while washing.
FIRST AID INGESTED: Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical assistance. Administer vegetable oil
(Note to doctor: If material is aspirated into the lungs, may cause chemical
pneumonitis).
FIRST AID INHALATION: Move victim to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration. Do not
use mouth to mouth, if victim has inhaled or ingested the substance;
induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask with a one-way
valve. If breathing of victim is difficult, administer oxygen. Effects of
exposure may be delayed. Seek medical attention if necessary.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES:

Carbon dioxide, foam and dry chemical.


Fire involving Tanks or Bulk containers: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or
monitor nozzles. Do not get water inside containers. ALWAYS stay away from the ends of tanks.
Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out.
Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. Isolate spill or
leak area immediately for at least 25 to 50 metres (80 to 160 feet) in all directions.
Keep unauthorized personnel away. Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas. Ventilate enclosed areas.
Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Wear chemical protective clothing, which is specifically recommended by the manufacturer.
Structural firefighters’ protective clothing is recommended for fire situations ONLY; it is not effective in spill
situations.
If vehicle is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 metres, (1/2 mile) in all directions, also, consider initial evacuation
for 800 metres (1/2 mile) in all directions.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES:

PRECAUTIONS:
Absorb with fire retardant treated sawdust, diatomaceous earth etc. Shovel up and dispose at an appropriate waste
disposal facility.
Restrict access to area.
Provide adequate protective equipment and ventilation.
Remove sources of heat and flame.
Notify occupational and environmental authorities.
SPILL OR LEAK:
ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area).
Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Stop leak if
you can do it without risk.
Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confinedareas.
Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers.
DO NOT GET WATER INSIDE CONTAINERS.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE:

Store between 0 and 28°C.


Keep out of direct sunlight.

Director: B.J. Rodd 2


Empty containers may retain hazardous residue and explosive vapours.
Keep away from heat, sparks or flame.
Do not cut, puncture, or weld on or near this container.
Follow label warnings until container is thoroughly cleaned or destroyed.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION:

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: NO EXPOSURE LIMITS ESTABLISHED.

CONTROLS: The control measures appropriate for a particular worksite depend on how
this material is used and on the extent of exposure. The best protection is
to enclose operations and/or provide local exhaust ventilation at the site of
chemical release. Use a non-sparking, grounded ventilation system
separate from other exhaust ventilation systems. Exhaust directly to the
outside. Supply sufficient replacement air to make up for air removed.
Have a safety shower / eye wash fountain readily available in the
immediate work area.

PERSONAL PROTECTION: If engineering controls and work practices are not effective in controlling
this material, then wear suitable personal protection equipment, including
chemical safety goggles & face shield, boots, imperious gloves, coveralls
& respiratory protection. Have appropriate equipment available for use in
emergencies.
