<p>MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET OLEIC ACID 3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION May cause skin and eye irritation. High vapour concentrations may cause drowsiness. May cause central nervous system (CNS) depression. Can decompose at high temperatures forming toxic gases. Contents may develop pressure on prolonged exposure to heat. EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS Product may be mildly irritating to the nose, throat and respiratory tract and may cause coughing and sneezing. See "Other Health Effects" Section. Inhalation: Skin contact can cause irritation, especially under the finger nails (and other confined spaces such as under rings or watch bands). Prolonged and repeated contact may lead to dermatitis. May cause defatting, drying and cracking of the skin. May cause oil acne. Peroxide formation will increase the irritancy of oleic acid. Skin Contact: A single, prolonged skin exposure is not likely to result in the absorption of toxic amounts of the material. Skin Absorption: Contact to the eye may cause irritation, redness and pain. Peroxide formation will increase the irritancy of oleic acid. Eye Contact: This product may cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort.

Give cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) if there is no breathing AND no pulse. Obtain medical attention IMMEDIATELY. Inhalation: Start flushing while removing contaminated clothing. Wash affected areas thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation, redness, or a burning sensation develops and persists, repeat flushing and obtain medical attention. Skin Contact: Immediately flush eyes with running water for a minimum of 20 minutes. Hold eyelids open during flushing. If irritation persists, repeat flushing. Obtain medical attention IMMEDIATELY. Eye Contact: Do not attempt to give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If victim is alert and not convulsing, rinse mouth out and give 1/2 to 1 glass of water to dilute material. IMMEDIATELY contact local Poison Control Centre. Vomiting should only be induced under the direction of a physician or a poison control centre. If spontaneous vomiting occurs, have victim lean forward with head down to avoid breathing in of vomitus, rinse mouth and administer more water. IMMEDIATELY transport victim to an emergency facility. Ingestion: This product contains materials that may cause severe pneumonitis if aspirated. If ingestion has occurred less than 2 hours earlier, carry out careful gastric lavage; use endotracheal cuff if available, to prevent aspiration. Observe patient for respiratory difficulty from aspiration pneumonitis. Give artificial resuscitation and appropriate chemotherapy if respiration is depressed. Medical conditions that may be aggravated by exposure to this product include diseases of the skin, eyes or respiratory tract. Note to Physicians: Effects (irritancy) on the skin and eyes may be delayed, and damage may occur without the sensation or onset of pain. Strict adherence to first aid measures following any exposure is essential. May cause central nervous system (CNS) depression. CNS depression is characterized by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting and incoordination. Severe overexposures may lead to coma and possible death due to respiratory failure. Prolonged and repeated contact may cause various forms of dermatitis, including folliculitis and oil acne. Long-term intensive exposure to oil mist may cause benign lung fibrosis.

ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Information in this section is for responding to spills, leaks or releases in order to prevent or minimize the adverse effects on persons, property and the environment. There may be specific reporting requirements associated with spills, leaks or releases, which change from region to region. In all cases of leak or spill contact vendor at Emergency Number shown on the front page of this MSDS. Wear protective clothing. Collect product for recovery or disposal. For release to land, or storm water runoff, contain discharge by constructing dykes or applying inert absorbent; for release to water, utilize damming and/or water diversion to minimize the spread of contamination. Ventilate enclosed spaces. Notify applicable government authority if release is reportable or could adversely affect the environment. Containment and Clean-Up Procedures: 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING Use normal "good" industrial hygiene and housekeeping practices. Containers exposed to heat may be under internal pressure. These should be cooled and carefully vented before opening. A face shield and apron should be worn. Vent container frequently, and more often in warm weather, to relieve pressure. Handling Practices: See Section 8, "Engineering Controls". Ventilation Requirements: Use only with adequate ventilation and avoid breathing aerosols ( vapours or mists ). Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly before re-use. Other Precautions: STORAGE See below. Storage Temperature (°C): General exhaust is acceptable. Ventilation Requirements: Store in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Keep containers closed. Do not expose sealed containers to temperatures above 89 °C. Avoid freezing! ( i.e. 12 to 17 °C ). Avoid direct sunlight. Storage Requirements: Confirm suitability of any material before using. Special Materials to be Used for Packaging or Containers: 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Recommendations listed in this section indicate the type of equipment, which will provide protection against overexposure to this product. Conditions of use, adequacy of engineering or other control measures, and actual exposures will dictate the need for specific protective devices at your workplace. ENGINEERING CONTROLS General exhaust is acceptable. Local exhaust ventilation preferred. Make up air should be supplied to balance air that is removed by local or general exhaust ventilation. Ventilate low lying areas such as sumps or pits where dense vapours may collect. Engineering Controls: PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) Safety glasses with side shields are recommended to prevent eye contact. Use chemical safety goggles when there is potential for eye contact. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this material. Eye Protection: Gloves and protective clothing made from butyl rubber, nitrile rubber and viton should be impervious under conditions of use. Prior to use, user should confirm impermeability. Do not use gloves or protective clothing made from natural rubber. Discard contaminated gloves. (4) Skin Protection: No specific guidelines available. Respiratory protection should not be necessary unless the material is heated or a mist created. A NIOSH/MSHA-approved air-purifying respirator equipped with organic vapour cartridges for concentrations up to 1 000 ppm organic vapours. An air-supplied respirator if concentrations are higher or unknown. If while wearing a respiratory protection, you can smell, taste or otherwise detect anything unusual, or in the case of a full facepiece respirator you experience eye irritation, leave the area immediately. Check to make sure the respirator to face seal is still good. If it is, replace the filter, cartridge or canister. If the seal is no longer good, you may need a new respirator. (4) Respiratory Protection: Wear regular work clothing. The use of coveralls is recommended. Locate safety shower and eyewash station close to chemical handling area. Take all precautions to avoid personal contact. Other Personal Protective Equipment: Oleic Acid Brenntag Canada Inc.
