Section 3. Composition/information on ingredients
Any concentration shown as a range is to protect confidentiality or is due to batch variation.
There are no additional ingredients present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the
concentrations applicable, are classified as hazardous to health and hence require reporting in this section.
Specific hazards arising In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst.
from the chemical
Hazardous combustion Combustion products may include the following:
products carbon oxides (CO, CO2) (carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide)
nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2 etc.)
Special protective actions No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Promptly
for fire-fighters isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire.
Special protective Fire-fighters should wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA)
equipment for fire-fighters and full turnout gear.

Section 6. Accidental release measures
For emergency responders If specialized clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information in
Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the information in "For non-
emergency personnel".
Environmental precautions Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air).
Conditions for safe storage, Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from
including any direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials
incompatibilities (see Section 10) and food and drink. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until
ready for use. Store and use only in equipment/containers designed for use with this
product. Containers that have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright
to prevent leakage. Do not store in unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment
to avoid environmental contamination.

Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
While specific OELs for certain components may be shown in this section, other components may be present in any mist,
vapor or dust produced. Therefore, the specific OELs may not be applicable to the product as a whole and are provided
for guidance only.
Biological exposure indices
No exposure indices known.
Appropriate engineering All activities involving chemicals should be assessed for their risks to health, to ensure
controls exposures are adequately controlled. Personal protective equipment should only be
considered after other forms of control measures (e.g. engineering controls) have been
suitably evaluated. Personal protective equipment should conform to appropriate
standards, be suitable for use, be kept in good condition and properly maintained.
Your supplier of personal protective equipment should be consulted for advice on
selection and appropriate standards. For further information contact your national
organisation for standards.
Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the relevant airborne
concentrations below their respective occupational exposure limits.
The final choice of protective equipment will depend upon a risk assessment. It is
important to ensure that all items of personal protective equipment are compatible.
Environmental exposure Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure they
controls comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some cases,
fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will be
necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.

General USED ENGINE OILS
Combustion products resulting from the operation of internal combustion engines
contaminate engine oils during use. Used engine oil may contain hazardous
components which have the potential to cause skin cancer. Frequent or prolonged
contact with all types and makes of used engine oil must therefore be avoided and a
high standard of personal hygiene maintained.
Carcinogenicity No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Mutagenicity No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Teratogenicity No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Developmental effects No known significant effects or critical hazards.
