clog the pores of the skin resulting in disorders such as oil

acne/folliculitis. High-pressure injection under the skin may

cause serious damage including local necrosis. Used grease

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

General Information : Not expected to be a health hazard when used under normal

conditions.

Inhalation : No treatment necessary under normal conditions of use. If

symptoms persist, obtain medical advice.

Skin Contact : Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with water

and follow by washing with soap if available. If persistent

irritation occurs, obtain medical attention. When using high

pressure equipment, injection of product under the skin can

occur. If high pressure injuries occur, the casualty should be

sent immediately to a hospital. Do not wait for symptoms to

develop. Obtain medical attention even in the absence of

apparent wounds.

Eye Contact : Flush eye with copious quantities of water. If persistent

irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.

Ingestion : In general no treatment is necessary unless large quantities

are swallowed, however, get medical advice.

Most Important

Symptoms/Effects, Acute

& Delayed

: Local necrosis is evidenced by delayed onset of pain and

tissue damage a few hours following injection. Oil

acne/folliculitis signs and symptoms may include formation of

black pustules and spots on the skin of exposed areas.

Ingestion may result in nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhoea.

Immediate medical

attention, special

treatment

: Treat symptomatically. High pressure injection injuries require

prompt surgical intervention and possibly steroid therapy, to

minimise tissue damage and loss of function. Because entry

wounds are small and do not reflect the seriousness of the

underlying damage, surgical exploration to determine the

extent of involvement may be necessary. Local anaesthetics or

hot soaks should be avoided because they can contribute to

swelling, vasospasm and ischaemia. Prompt surgical

decompression, debridement and evacuation of foreign

material should be performed under general anaesthetics, and

wide exploration is essential.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Clear fire area of all non-emergency personnel.

Specific hazards arising

from Chemicals

: Hazardous combustion products may include: A complex

mixture of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases

(smoke). Carbon monoxide. Unidentified organic and inorganic

compounds.

Suitable Extinguishing

Media

: Foam, water spray or fog. Dry chemical powder, carbon

dioxide, sand or earth may be used for small fires only.

Unsuitable Extinguishing

Media

: Do not use water in a jet.

Protective Equipment &

Precautions for Fire

Fighters

: Proper protective equipment including breathing apparatus

must be worn when approaching a fire in a confined space.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Avoid contact with spilled or released material. For guidance on selection of personal protective

equipment see Chapter 8 of this Material Safety Data Sheet. See Chapter 13 for information on

disposal. Observe the relevant local and international regulations.

Personal Precautions,

Protective Equipment and

Emergency Procedures

: Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Environmental

Precautions

: Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental

contamination. Prevent from spreading or entering drains,

ditches or rivers by using sand, earth, or other appropriate

barriers.

Methods and Material for

Containment and Clean

Up

: Shovel into a suitable clearly marked container for disposal or

reclamation in accordance with local regulations.

Print Date 08/18/2011

General Precautions : Use local exhaust ventilation if there is risk of inhalation of

vapours, mists or aerosols. Properly dispose of any

contaminated rags or cleaning materials in order to prevent

fires. Use the information in this data sheet as input to a risk

assessment of local circumstances to help determine

appropriate controls for safe handling, storage and disposal of

this material.

Precautions for Safe

Handling

: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid inhaling

vapour and/or mists. When handling product in drums, safety

footwear should be worn and proper handling equipment

should be used.

Conditions for Safe

Storage

: Keep container tightly closed and in a cool, well-ventilated

place. Use properly labelled and closeable containers. Storage

Temperature: 0 - 50 °C / 32 - 122 °F

Recommended Materials : For containers or container linings, use mild steel or high

density polyethylene.

Unsuitable Materials : PVC.

Other Advice : Polyethylene containers should not be exposed to high

temperatures because of possible risk of distortion.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

If the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) value is provided on

this document, it is provided for information only.

Occupational Exposure Limits

Material Source Type ppm mg/m3 Notation

Oil mist, mineral ACGIH TWA

[Inhalable

fraction.]

5 mg/m3

Additional Information : Due to the product's semi-solid consistency, generation of

mists and dusts is unlikely to occur.

Biological Exposure Index (BEI) - See reference for full details

Data not available

Appropriate Engineering

Controls

: The level of protection and types of controls necessary will vary

depending upon potential exposure conditions. Select controls

based on a risk assessment of local circumstances.

Appropriate measures include: Adequate ventilation to control

airborne concentrations. Where material is heated, sprayed or

mist formed, there is greater potential for airborne

concentrations to be generated.

Individual Protection

Measures

: Personal protective equipment (PPE) should meet

recommended national standards. Check with PPE suppliers.

Respiratory Protection : No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under normal

conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene

practices, precautions should be taken to avoid breathing of

material. If engineering controls do not maintain airborne

concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker

health, select respiratory protection equipment suitable for the

specific conditions of use and meeting relevant legislation.

Check with respiratory protective equipment suppliers. Where

air-filtering respirators are suitable, select an appropriate

combination of mask and filter. Select a filter suitable for

combined particulate/organic gases and vapours [boiling point

>65°C(149 °F)].

Hand Protection : Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of

gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374,

US: F739) made from the following materials may provide

suitable chemical protection: PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber

gloves. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on

usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical

resistance of glove material, glove thickness, dexterity. Always

seek advice from glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should

be replaced. Personal hygiene is a key element of effective

hand care. Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After

using gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly.

Application of a non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended.

Eye Protection : Wear safety glasses or full face shield if splashes are likely to

occur.

Protective Clothing : Skin protection not ordinarily required beyond standard issue

work clothes.

Thermal Hazards : Not applicable.

Monitoring Methods : Monitoring of the concentration of substances in the breathing

zone of workers or in the general workplace may be required to

confirm compliance with an OEL and adequacy of exposure

controls. For some substances biological monitoring may also

be appropriate.

Environmental Exposure

Controls

: Minimise release to the environment. An environmental

assessment must be made to ensure compliance with local

environmental legislation.

impurities will depend on use and they may present risks to

health and the environment on disposal. ALL used grease

should be handled with caution and skin contact avoided as far

as possible. High pressure injection of product into the skin

may lead to local necrosis if the product is not surgically

removed.
