1.2 Relevant identified uses of the substance or mixture and uses advised against
Identified uses
Oil spill remover
There are no additional ingredients present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the
concentrations applicable, are classified as hazardous to health or the environment, are PBTs or vPvBs or have been
assigned a workplace exposure limit and hence require reporting in this section.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
There are no data available on the preparation itself. The preparation has been assessed following the conventional
method of the Dangerous Preparations Directive 1999/45/EC and classified for toxicological hazards accordingly. See
sections 3 and 15 for details.
Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result
in adverse health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the
kidneys, liver and central nervous system. Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular
weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the skin. Repeated or prolonged contact with the
preparation may cause removal of natural fat from the skin, resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption
through the skin.
If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may cause irritation and reversible damage.
Ingestion may cause nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.
This takes into account, where known, delayed and immediate effects and also chronic effects of components from
short-term and long-term exposure by oral, inhalation and dermal routes of exposure and eye contact.
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes to physician : Treat symptomatically. Contact poison treatment specialist immediately if large
quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
Specific treatments : No specific treatment.
6.2 Environmental : Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses. If the product contaminates lakes,
