4 FIRST AID MEASURES

Poisons Information Centre: Phone 131 126

Swallowed: If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons

Information Centre. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting due

to the hazard of solvent aspiration into the lungs. Rinse mouth

with water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious

person.

Eye: Immediately hold the eyes open and wash continuously for

at least 10 minutes with fresh running water. Ensure irrigation

under eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.

Seek medical advice. Removal of contact lenses after an eye

injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.

Skin: Remove any contaminated clothing and shoes and flush

area with water. Seek medical attention in the event of

irritation.

Inhaled: If effects occur, remove patient to fresh air, rest patient

and seek medical advice. Give artificial respiration if breathing

stops. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.

5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Fire/Explosion Hazard: Mop Oil is flammable.

Flash Point:(kerosene): 54 deg C (COC)

Fire Extinguishing media: Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide or

foam.

Fire Fighters’ PPE: SCBA and structural fire fighter’s uniform

may provide limited protection. Fully-encapsulating, gas-tight

suits should be worn for maximum protection.

Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Use water to cool exposed

containers. If a leak or spill has ignited, use water spray to

disperse the vapours and to protect men attempting to stop a

leak. Water spray may be used to flush spills away from

exposures. Prevent run off from entering waterways. Minimise

breathing gases, vapour, fumes or decomposition products.

Use supplied-air breathing equipment for enclosed areas.

Unusual fire hazards: None

Hazardous products of combustion: Thermal decomposition in a

large fire may yield carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide

and/or hydrocarbons.

6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Eliminate all sources of ignition. Ventilate area well. Clean up all

spills immediately. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Contain

spill for salvage or absorb in inert absorbent material. Place in a

suitable, labelled container for waste disposal.

Incompatibility (Materials to avoid for purposes of transport,

handling and storage only): Oxidising agents like liquid

chlorine or sodium hypochlorite. Strong acids and alkalis.

8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

ingredients by Worksafe Australia. Other Standards: (Data for

principal ingredient)

Suggested TLV (for kerosene) = 200 ppm

(Shell Occupational Exposure Limit for 8-hour working day,

5 days a week)

Engineering Controls: Mechanical ventilation: Flameproof

ventilation (local exhaust and/or general mechanical) is

required if sufficient product is used to generate volumes of

vapour that approach the flammability or TLV limits. No

smoking. Use in a well ventilated area.
