Eye Contact: May cause irritation. Skin Contact: Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause irritation. Thermal decomposition of PTFE (over 290%C) will generate hydrogen fluoride, which is corrosive, causing burns on contact with skin and other tissue. Inhalation: Oil mist and vapors at high temperatures may irritate respiratory passages. Inhalation of decomposition products of PTFE (over 290%C) may cause polymer fume fever, a temporary flu-like illness accompanied by fever, chills, and sometimes cough, of approximately 24 hours duration. Repeated episodes of polymer fume fever may cause lung damage. Inhalation of fluorine compounds as decomposition products of PTFE (over 290%C) may cause lung irritation and pulmonary edema. Ingestion: May cause gastrointestinal irritation. Primary Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation at high temperatures, eye contact, skin contact. Target Organs: Respiratory passages at high temperatures, eyes, skin. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure: Individuals with pre-existing diseases of the lungs may have increased susceptibility to the tox1city of excessive exposures from thermal decomposition products. Carcinogenicity: IARC, N'TP, and OSHA do not list HP 6040-1314 Grease or its ingredients as carcinogens. Section 4 - First Aid Measures Eye Contact: Flush thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical attention. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed area with soap and water. Get medical attention 1f symptoms persists. Inhalation: If symptoms develop, remove affected person from source of exposure into fresh air. Get immediate medical attention. If person is not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing 1s difficult, administer oxygen 1f available. Ingestion: Get immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by a physician. Page 1 0f3 MSDS No. HP 6040-1314 Section 5 - Fire-Fighting Measures Flash Point: over 400°F (204°C) Flash Point Method: CC, ASTM D93 Lower Flammable Limit (LFL): N/A Upper Flammable Limit (UFL): N/A Extinguishing Media: CO2, Foam, Dry Chemical, Water Spray Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: None Hazardous Combustion Products: Hydrogen fluoride, carbonyl fluoride, carbon monoxide and small amount of other toxic fumes. Fire-Fighting Instructions: Wear a NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus with full protective clothing. Do not release runoff from fire control methods to sewers or waterways. Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures Spill Response: Observe precautions from other sections. Contain any spill with dikes or absorbents to prevent migration and entry into drains, sewers or bodies of water. Wipe or scrape up grease and place it in a proper container for disposal. Wash walking surfaces thoroughly to reduce slipping hazard. Follow applicable OSHA (29 CFR 1910.120), state and local regulations. Section 7 - Handling and Storage Handling Precautions: Exercise ordinary care in handling industrial lubricants. Avoid contamination of cigarettes or other tobacco products. Wash hands thoroughly before eating or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and clean before reuse. Users should be alert to the possibility that very small percentages of the population may display unexpected allergic reactions to otherwise innocuous industrial lubricants and raw materials. Storage Requirements: Do not store in open or unlabeled containers. Store away from incompatibles. Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection Eye Protection: Avoid eye contact. Wear safety glasses or chemical goggles in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.133.
