PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL TOXICOLOGICAL (SYMPTOMS)
Inhalation: Repeated and prolonged exposition to vapors or fumes may cause headache, nausea,
drowsiness and vertigo. At high temperatures or mechanical agitation vapors of hydrogen sulphide may
emanate. These vapors are toxic and may irritate the respiratory channels, produce dizziness, vomit,
pulmonary edema and alterations to the central nervous system.

Ingestion/Inhalation: It is not frequent but if it occurs, it may cause gastrointestinal disorder. Inhalation
through to the lungs during ingestion or vomit may produce damage to the lungs. Vomit must not be
provoked in case of ingestion.
Flammable Liquids and vapors. Cat.: 3
Skin/eye Contact: Repeated or prolonged contact may cause irritation and dermatitis. Contact with hot
product may cause burns. Vapors, clouds or fumes may produce irritation and conjunctivitis.

General Toxic Effects: The product may cause irritation of the respiratory channels, skin and eyes. In
extreme cases of contact with some of the petroleum components it may cause cancer. Inhalation into the
lungs during ingestion or vomit may produce lung damage. Contact with the hot product may cause burns.
Noxious to aquatic organisms. In the long term, it may cause negative effects in the aquatic environment.

4. FIRST AID

Inhalation: Move affected subject to a clean air area. If breathing is difficult apply medicinal oxygen and /or seek for immediate medical assistance.

Ingestion/Inhalation: Not frequent, but if it occurs it may cause gastrointestinal disorder. Inhalation through to the lungs during ingestion or vomit may produce lung damage.
Vomit must not be provoked. Seek for immediate medical assistance.

Skin/Eye Contact: Immediately remove affected clothing. Wash area with abundant soap and water during 15 minutes. Seek for medical assistance.

General Measures: In the presence of any type of contact, first seek for medical assistance, then proceed with the above measures.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Extinguishing Measures: Apropiated foams into the Containers. Pulverized water to refrigerate (only externally) . In Particular cases Chemical powders or CO2 may be result
apropiated.

Contraindications: Never utilize direct waters jets nor inside containers.

Combustion Products: C02, H20, SOx Nox, CO (in case of incomplete combustion). In contact whit water, Nytrogen or Sulphide Oxides may produce acid vapors.

Special Measures: Keep containers with product away from fire area. Cool containers which are exposed to flames. If fire cannot be extinguished, let fire resume in a
controlled manner. Consult and apply emergency plans.

Special Dangers: Flammable Material. Vapors are heavier than air and may drift into distant ignition sources and ignite. Containers may explode due to heat of fire. Vapors
of light hydrocarbons may accumulate at head of containers with risk of flammability/explosion even at temperatures below flammability point of product. Danger of explosion
from vapors in the interior, exterior or in ducts, grill and gutters.

Protection Gear: Heat resistant garments, fit for fire fighting. When high concentration of vapors and fumes exists, utilize self-governing respiratory apparel or assisted fresh
air.

6. MEASURES FOR ACCIDENTAL SPILL

Personal Precautions: Measures established in Emergency Plans must

be applied. In general: Isolate the area. Unnecessary personnel banned
Precautions for the environment: Noxious for aquatic organisms. It may provoke negative
from the area. Avoid lower areas where vapors may accumulate. Avoid any
effects in in the aquatic environment in the long term. Leakage may form a layer over the surface,
possible source of ignition (gear or work at high temperatures, cigarettes,
blocking the transfer of oxygen. Proceed according to established Emergency Plan.
electrical or electronical appliances or apparel approved for classified
areas. Avoid the spill to reach sensible areas or potable water font.

Detoxification and cleaning: Small spills: Remove with sand or other non combustible
absorbent and place in containers for later disposal. Large Spills: Use barriers (dams) to limit the Personal Protection: PVC gloves. Rubber boots with steel caps. Eye
spread of liquid in order to facilitate recovery and later disposal or elimination.Proceed according protection. Face masks or self-governing breathing gear if needed.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling:

General Precautions: Use adequate protecting clothes in order to avoid contact with product, safety glasses if there is risk of splash, and respiratory protection if necessary.
Do not smoke in the areas where the product is handled. For decanting use earthed equipment.

Specific Conditions: : Efficient antiflammable local ventilation system and mechanical ventilation in all confined areas. Special procedure during loading, cleansing and
maintenance of containers in order to avoid exposition. No pressurizing, cutting or welding in the proximity of areas where containers with product are stored. Similar
precautions to be followed in the presence of empty containers. Ensure that tanks are correctly purged and washed before carrying on any repair maneuver. Also verify there
is no explosive atmosphere in its interior. During purging operation toxic vapors may emanate. (SH2)

Storage:
Temperature and products of decomposition. Carbon oxides, sulfur and nitrogen; Hydrogen sulphide.

Dangerous Reactions: Flammable Material. Reactive to high temperatures or pressure.

Storage conditions: Correctly sealed and labeled containers, placed in very well ventilated areas. Keep containers away from heat, sparkles flames and other ignition sources.

Incompatible Material: Strong oxidizers.

8. EXPOSITION CONTROLS/ PERSONAL PROTECTION

Personal protection gear:
Eye Protection: Safety goggles/glasses. Eye rinse and emergency showers.
Respiratory Protection: Breathing Mask in the presence of vapors. In case of high concentrations of vapor or lack of oxygen, self-governed breathing gear or clean air supply
must be utilized.
Skin Protection: PVC Gloves. Adequate and antistatic Safety shoes.
Other Protection: Emergency showers at work area.
General Precautions: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhaling vapors and fumes.

Hygienic Practice at work: Clothes soaked in product must be submerged in abundant water (preferably under shower), in order to avoid risk of swelling. They must be
taken off as fast as possible, far away from the area of action of any ignition source. No smoking, drinking or eating in areas where the product is handled. Follow measures
of skin care, washing frequently with water and soap and applying protecting cream.
