Manufacturer/Supplier : SOPUS Products PO Box 4427 Houston, TX USA MSDS Request : Eergency Telephone Nuber Spill Inforation : Health Inforation : COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Cheical Identity CAS No. Concentration % ethylhexyl)dithiocarbaato- S,S'] antiony % A lubricating grease consisting of highly-refined ineral oil and additives. The highly refined ineral oil contains <3% (w/w) DMSO-extract, according to IP HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Eergency Overview Appearance and Odour : Dark grey. Sei-solid at roo teperature. Slight hydrocarbon. Health Hazards : High-pressure injection under the skin ay cause serious daage including local necrosis. Safety Hazards : Not classified as flaable but will burn. Environental Hazards : Not classified as dangerous for the environent. Health Hazards Health Hazards Inhalation Skin Contact Eye Contact Ingestion Other Inforation : Not expected to be a health hazard when used under noral conditions. : Under noral conditions of use, this is not expected to be a priary route of exposure. : Prolonged or repeated skin contact without proper cleaning can clog the pores of the skin resulting in disorders such as oil acne/folliculitis. : May cause slight irritation to eyes. : Low toxicity if swallowed. : High-pressure injection under the skin ay cause serious daage including local necrosis. Used grease ay contain 1/9

2 harful ipurities. Signs and Syptos : Local necrosis is evidenced by delayed onset of pain and tissue daage a few hours following injection. Oil acne/folliculitis signs and syptos ay include foration of black pustules and spots on the skin of exposed areas. Ingestion ay result in nausea, voiting and/or diarrhoea. Aggravated Medical Condition : Pre-existing edical conditions of the following organ(s) or organ syste(s) ay be aggravated by exposure to this aterial: Skin. Environental Hazards : Not classified as dangerous for the environent. Additional Inforation : Under noral conditions of use or in a foreseeable eergency, this product does not eet the definition of a hazardous cheical when evaluated according to the OSHA Hazard Counication Standard, 29 CFR. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES General Inforation : Not expected to be a health hazard when used under noral conditions. Inhalation : No treatent necessary under noral conditions of use. If syptos persist, obtain edical advice. Skin Contact : Reove containated clothing. Flush exposed area with water and follow by washing with soap if available. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain edical attention. When using high pressure equipent, injection of product under the skin can occur. If high pressure injuries occur, the casualty should be sent iediately to a hospital. Do not wait for syptos to develop. Obtain edical attention even in the absence of apparent wounds. Eye Contact : Flush eye with copious quantities of water. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain edical attention. Ingestion : In general no treatent is necessary unless large quantities are swallowed, however, get edical advice. Advice to Physician : Treat syptoatically. High pressure injection injuries require propt surgical intervention and possibly steroid therapy, to iniise tissue daage and loss of function. Because entry wounds are sall and do not reflect the seriousness of the underlying daage, surgical exploration to deterine the extent of involveent ay be necessary. Local anaesthetics or hot soaks should be avoided because they can contribute to swelling, vasospas and ischaeia. Propt surgical decopression, debrideent and evacuation of foreign aterial should be perfored under general anaesthetics, and wide exploration is essential. 5.

Exposure Controls : The level of protection and types of controls necessary will vary depending upon potential exposure conditions. Select controls based on a risk assessent of local circustances. Appropriate easures include: Adequate ventilation to control airborne concentrations. Where aterial is heated, sprayed or 4/9

Check with PPE suppliers. Respiratory Protection : No respiratory protection is ordinarily required under noral conditions of use. In accordance with good industrial hygiene practices, precautions should be taken to avoid breathing of aterial. If engineering controls do not aintain airborne concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker health, select respiratory protection equipent suitable for the specific conditions of use and eeting relevant legislation. Check with respiratory protective equipent suppliers. Where air-filtering respirators are suitable, select an appropriate cobination of ask and filter. Select a filter suitable for cobined particulate/organic gases and vapours [boiling point >65 C (149 F)]. Hand Protection : Where hand contact with the product ay occur the use of gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374, US: F739) ade fro the following aterials ay provide suitable cheical protection: PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber gloves. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, cheical resistance of glove aterial, glove thickness, dexterity. Always seek advice fro glove suppliers. Containated gloves should be replaced. Personal hygiene is a key eleent of effective hand care. Gloves ust only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a non-perfued oisturizer is recoended. Eye Protection : Wear safety glasses or full face shield if splashes are likely to occur. Protective Clothing : Skin protection not ordinarily required beyond standard issue work clothes. Monitoring Methods : Monitoring of the concentration of substances in the breathing zone of workers or in the general workplace ay be required to confir copliance with an OEL and adequacy of exposure controls. For soe substances biological onitoring ay also be appropriate. Environental Exposure Controls 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES : Miniise release to the environent.
