Page 2 / 9
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Emergency Procedures
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment and clothing to prevent exposure. Extinguish or remove all
sources of ignition and stop leak if safe to do so. Increase ventilation. Evacuate all unprotected personnel. If
possible contain the spill. Place inert absorbent, non-combustible material onto spillage. Use clean non-
sparking tools to collect the material and place into suitable labelled containers for subsequent recycling or
disposal. Dispose of waste according to the applicable local and national regulations. If contamination of
sewers or waterways occurs inform the local water and waste management authorities in accordance with
local regulations.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for Safe Handling


Avoid inhalation of vapours and mists, and skin or eye contact. Use only in a well ventilated area. Keep
containers sealed when not in use. Prevent the build up of mists or vapours in the work atmosphere. Do not
use near ignition sources. Do not pressurise, cut, heat or weld containers as they may contain hazardous
residues. Maintain high standards of personal hygiene by washing hands prior to eating, drinking, smoking or
using toilet facilities.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatabilities


Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition, oxidising agents, strong acids,
foodstuffs, and clothing. Keep containers closed when not in use, securely sealed and protected against
physical damage. Inspect regularly for deficiencies such as damage or leaks. Have appropriate fire
extinguishers available in and near the storage area. Take precautions against static electricity discharges.
Use proper grounding procedures. Ensure that storage conditions comply with applicable local and national
regulations. For information on the design of the storeroom, reference should be made to Australian
Standard AS1940 - The storage and handling of flammable and combustible liquids.

Storage Regulations
Classified as a Class C2 (COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID) for the purpose of storage and handling, in accordance with
the requirements of AS1940.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Occupational exposure limit values


No exposure standards have been established for this material, however, the TWA exposure standards for
refined mineral oil mist is 5 mg/m³. As with all chemicals, exposure should be kept to the lowest possible
levels.
TWA (Time Weighted Average): The average airborne concentration of a particular substance when
calculated over a normal eight-hour working day, for a five-day week.

Biological Limit Values


No biological limits allocated.

Page 3 / 9
Appropriate Engineering Controls
Provide sufficient ventilation to keep airborne levels below the exposure limits or as low as possible. Where
vapours or mists are generated, particularly in enclosed areas, and natural ventilation is inadequate, a
flameproof exhaust ventilation system is required. Refer to relevant regulations for further information
concerning ventilation requirements.

Respiratory Protection
If engineering controls are not effective in controlling airborne exposure then an approved respirator with a
replaceable vapor/mist filter should be used. Refer to relevant regulations for further information concerning
respiratory protective requirements.
Reference should be made to Australian Standards AS/ NZS 1715, Selection, Use and Maintenance of
Respiratory Protective Devices; and AS/NZS 1716, Respiratory Protective Devices, in order to make any
necessary changes for individual circumstances.

Eye Protection
Safety glasses with side shields, chemical goggles or full-face shield as appropriate should be used. Final
choice of appropriate eye/face protection will vary according to individual circumstances. Eye protection
devices should conform to relevant regulations.
Eye protection should conform with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1337 - Eye Protectors for
Industrial Applications.

Hand Protection
Wear gloves of impervious material. Final choice of appropriate gloves will vary according to individual
circumstances i.e. methods of handling or according to risk assessments undertaken. Occupational protective
gloves should conform to relevant regulations. Reference should be made to AS/NZS 2161.1: Occupational
protective gloves - Selection, use and maintenance.

Body Protection
Suitable protective workwear, e.g. cotton overalls buttoned at neck and wrist is recommended. Chemical
resistant apron is recommended where large quantities are handled.
