It is a blend of distillate components and a small
amount of residual components. It is marketed under
BIS 1460-2000 specification for Diesel fuels. We
deals in Brand like Castrol, Hindustan Petroleum (HP), Indian

SAFETY INFORMATION
Reactivity Data - Chemically stable and
incompatible with strong oxidizers. Does not React
vigorously with common materials but may react with
oxidizing agents
Health Hazard Data - Routes of entry may be
through inhalation/ ingestion/ skin/ eye.
EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE
/ SYMPTOMS
Inhalation causes dizziness and headache.
Ingestion may lead to nausea vomiting,
irritation of mouth and gastro-intestinal effects
likely. Potentially fatal chemical pneumonitis.
On Skin and eye contact , irritation will remove
natural fats from skin. Prolonged or repeated
contact should be avoided, Otherwise skin chapping
or cracking or possible contact of dermatitis may
result. Dry skin, erythema oil acne and oil
folliculitis and warty growth may occur which may
become skin cancer subsequently on excessive
repeated exposure.
EMERGENCY TREATMENT
Inhalation - Remove victim to fresh air. Give
artificial respiration if necessary. If unconscious
but breathing, place in recovery (Unconscious)
position and give external cardiac massage if
necessary.
Ingestion - Do not induce vomiting. Remove
contaminated clothing. Wash all affected skin
thoroughly with soap and water.
Eyes – Irrigate eyes with copious amounts of water.
Administration of medical paraffin may reduce
absorption through digestive tract.
Gastric lavage should be done only after endo
tracheal intubation in view of respiration which may
cause serious chemical pnemonitis for which
antibiotic and cortico-steroid therapy may be
indicated. |
