LEL: No Data
Flammability Classification: Combustible Liquid - Class IIIB Extinguishing Media: Use carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or sand for small fires; aqueous foam for large fires. Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Avoid use of water as it may spread fire by dispersing the oil. Water may be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and complete personal protective equipment when entering confined areas where potential for exposure to vapors or products of combustion exists. Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards: Closed containers may rupture (due to buildup of pressure) when exposed to extreme heat.

IV. REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Stable
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
Conditions to Avoid: Fire, excessive heat. Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Strong oxidizing agents. Hazardous Decompositions or By-Products: Fumes produced when heated to decomposition may include: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide. V. HEALTH HAZARD DATA Effects of Overexposure: Eye Contact: No specific information available. Contains materials that may cause eye irritation. Ingestion: No specific information available. Considered practically non-toxic. Inhalation: Excessive inhalation of vegetable oil mist may irritate the respiratory system. Vegetable oil mist is classified as a nuisance particulate by ACGIH. Heating above 500ºF (260ºC) can generate vapors that could cause headaches, nausea, dizziness, and respiratory irritation if inhaled. Skin Absorption: No specific information available. Considered practically non-toxic. Skin Contact: No specific information available. Generally non-irritating, however it contains materials that may cause skin irritation to some individuals on prolonged or repeated exposure. Effects of Chronic Overexposure: No information available. Emergency & First Aid Procedures: Eye Contact: Flush with plenty of water and seek medical attention if irritation develops and persists. Ingestion: Non-toxic, however if appreciable quantities are swallowed, seek medical attention. Inhalation: In case of over-exposure to fumes if product is heated above 500ºF (260ºC), remove person to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, administer artificial respiration and seek medical attention. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and wash contact area with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation develops and persists VI. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES Steps to Be Taken In Case Material Is Released or Spilled: Depending on quantity of spill: (a) Small spill – add inert solid absorbent to spill, shovel into disposable container, flush area with water, and clean area with detergent. (b) Large spill – squeegee or pump spilled oil into holding container for disposal, then clean area as described for a small spill. Prevent washings from entering waterways. Waste Disposal Method: Landfill, incinerate, or use biological treatment in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations. VII. PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE Respiratory Protection: Not normally needed. Wear a properly fitted NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator whenever exposure to vapor from heating product is likely and where ventilation is inadequate. Ventilation: Local Exhaust: Intermittent clean air exchanges recommended when appropriate to control employee exposure. Mechanical: Not recommended as the sole means of controlling employee exposure. Protective Gloves: For operations where contact can occur, individuals known to have skin sensitivity should wear impervious gloves. Eye Protection: Eye protection is always recommended when handling chemicals.
