2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

Classification of the substance or : Not classified as dangerous under EC criteria.

mixture
Most important adverse physico- : Combustible liquid.
chemical effects
Most important adverse human health : Sensitising substances; allergic reactions possible.
effects
Most important adverse environmental : No specific risk for the environment.
effects
Label elements:
- safety advices : Do not empty into drains; dispose of this material and its container in a safe way.
Other hazards : During use in engines, contamination of oil with low levels of cancer-causing combustion
products occurs. Used motor oils have been shown to cause skin cancer in mice following
repeated application and continuous exposure. Brief or intermittent skin contact with used
motor oil is not expected to have serious effects in humans if the oil is thoroughly removed by
washing with soap and water. Avoid prolonged contact with used motor oil. Overexposure to
oil mist may cause respiratory irritations. Oil mist deposited on surfaces may cause slip
hazard.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Control parameters:
Occupational exposure limit values:
- Australia : National exposure standards for atmosperic contaminants in the occupational environment;
Time-Weighted Average (normal eight-hour working day, for a five-day working week): 5 mg/
m³ for oil mist, refined mineral. (National Occupational Health & Safety Commission [NOHSC:
1003(1995)]
- Canada : The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) has assigned
mineral oil mist a threshold limit value (TLV) of 5 mg/m(3) as a Time Weighted Average (
TWA) for a normal 8-hour workday and a 40-hour workweek and a short-term exposure limit (
STEL) of 10 mg/m(3) for periods not to exceed 15 minutes. Exposures at the STEL
concentration should not be repeated more than four times a day and should be separated by
intervals of at least 60 minutes.
[ACGIH 1994, p. 28]
- EU : Occupational Exposure Standard (OES) of 5 mg/m³,
8-hour time-weighted average reference period for oil mist.
- USA : The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) has assigned
mineral oil mist a threshold limit value (TLV) of 5 mg/m(3) as a Time Weighted Average (
TWA) for a normal 8-hour workday and a 40-hour workweek and a short-term exposure limit (
STEL) of 10 mg/m(3) for periods not to exceed 15 minutes. Exposures at the STEL
concentration should not be repeated more than four times a day and should be separated by
intervals of at least 60 minutes.
[ACGIH 1994, p. 28]
