R Phrases and CLP Classifications provided herein describe the classification each component in the lubricant additive. The concentration of each component which may
pose risk in the form of lubricant additive are much below their individual cut off level for physical, health and environmental hazard classes making resulting the
lubricant mixture " Not Classified" under GHS criteria.

4 - First Aid Measures

Inhilation: Remove to fresh air and rest. If recovery is not rapid call for prompt medical attention. Show this safety data
sheet to medical personnel.
Eyes: Gently rinse with water for at least 15 minutes. Take care not to wash chemical from one eye to another. If irritation
persists, seek medical attention.

Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash with soap/cleanser and rinse with plenty
of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give plenty of water to drink. Seek medical attention immediately.

5 - Fire fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishers: Use media such as alcohol/aqueous foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide or water spray/fog. For
large fires, solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water.

Unsuitable Extinguishers: Direct water jets may be ineffective under certain conditions.

Hazardous Decomposition: Highly dependent on combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids, and
gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic compounds will be evolved.

Special Procedures/Information for firefighters: Do not breathe decomposition products and fumes. Use approved self-
contained breathing apparatus. Wear fire retardant clothing. Do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without
proper protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus. Use water spray to cool Use water fog to
disperse vapours and leaks that have not ignited. Prevent runoff from fire control from entering waterways. Large fires
should only be dealt with by trained personnel.

6 - Accidental Release Measures

Personal Protection and Precautions: Use suitable personal protective equipment (refer to Section 8 for details). Avoid
breathing vapours. Ensure adequate ventilation. Eliminate all sources of ignition near the spill or released vapour.

Environmental Precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains or
watercourses. Where feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated soil. Place contaminated materials in disposable
containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with applicable regulations.

Containment, Cleaning up and Disposal Considerations: Absorb in inert material such as sand or non-combustible
absorbent granules. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. A vapour suppressing foam may be
used to reduce vapours. Scoop up and place in plastic container to await transfer.

7 - Handling and Storage

Handling: Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area keeping containers tightly closed. Containers which are opened
carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.

8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limit: 5 mg/m3 8hrTWA, 10 mg/m3 15min STEL OEL Oil mist.

Respiratory Protection: Use in well ventilated areas. Use mechanical ventilation if possible. If inhalation is likely then use a
respirator with filter type A to Standard EN14593/4, EN405 or equivalent. The use of suitable gas detectors and alarm
systems, especially in confined spaces and poorly ventilated areas is recommended.

Hand Protection: Wear polythene, PVC or nitrile gloves to Standard EN 374 (breakthrough time for total immersion in
excess of 8 hours).
Eye Protection: Wear suitable eye protection such as safety glasses or goggles to Standard BS EN 166 if splash or eye
contact likely.

Skin Protection: Wear suitable overalls or apron and change if contaminated. After contact with skin wash off
immediately. Wash hands before breaks and immediately after using the product
