| HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION |
|
| Health Effects |
|
| Acute - Swallowed |
Irritant. Oral LD50 (rat) > 2000 mg/kg for White
Spirit, which is considered by NOHSC not to be harmful. |
| Acute - Eye |
Mild eye irritant. White Spirit is practically
non-irritating to the eyes. The pumice abrasive will cause scratching of
the cornea. |
| Acute - Skin |
Mildly irritating to the skin. White Spirit is a
slight to moderate skin irritant. Dermal LD50 (rat) for White Spirit >
2000 mg/kg, which is considered by NOHSC not to be harmful. |
| Acute - Inhaled |
The exposure standard for White Spirit is 790 mg/m³
(TWA) (Source: NOHSC). However, due to the form in which the product is
supplied and under normal conditions of storage and use, this product does
not present an inhalation hazard. |
Hazards
Identification |
This product is NOT classified as hazardous due to its
viscosity and phase stability at temperatures up to and including 40C.
Hence, it does NOT require classification using the risk phrase
R65. |
| Chronic |
Prolonged and constant use may lead to irritation and
possibly dermatitis. |
| Other Information |
The presence of white spirit in this product suggests
the need for the Risk Phrase R65 (Harmful: May cause lung damage if
swallowed) to be included on this MSDS. The severity of symptoms after
ingestion of white spirit depends on whether it is aspirated into the
lungs, as aspiration can cause serious bronchopneumonia. As this product
is a viscous oil-in-water emulsion, the likelihood of aspiration of white
spirit into the lungs is substantially reduced due to the product's form,
viscosity and phase stability at temperatures up to 40C. |
|
| First Aid |
|
| Swallowed |
Do NOT induce vomiting. Give water to drink. Seek
medical attention. |
| Eye |
Hold the eyes open and flush with water for at least
15 minutes. Seek medical attention. |
| Skin |
Remove contaminated clothing and launder before
re-use. Wash affected skin with water. |
| Inhaled |
Remove the victim from the source of exposure. If the
victim is not breathing, apply artificial resuscitation. |
First Aid
Facilities |
This Material Safety Data Sheet should be provided to
the attending medical doctor. An eye irrigation facility should be
provided. |

| OTHER INFORMATION |

Short Summary of
Assessment of
Environmental
Impact |
White spirit would be expected to partition largely to
the atmosphere; the less volatile constituents would partition to soil and
sediment, where lowered bioavailability would reduce uptake by organisms.
White spirit is readily biodegradable under aerobic conditions. Research
indicates that White spirit has a moderate potential for bioaccumulation;
however bioconcentration would be expected to be low. White spirit
exhibits moderate toxicity to aquatic organisms.
Most of the other
major organic components of this product are expected to be readily
biodegradable and to exhibit low aquatic toxicity, although one surfactant
is recognised to have poor biodegradability. This product contains
inorganic components which will not biodegrade, however these components
are not ecotoxic.
