Launder clothing before reuse. Page 2 of 5 Date of Issue: December 2011 Product: anti - freeze / anti -Boil Coolant Supplier: Marque Lubricants Section 4: FIRST AID (cont) Inhalation Leave area of exposure. If symptoms develop, seek urgent medial attention. If assisting a victim, avoid becoming a casualty, wear a Type A (organic vapour) respirator (or Air-line respirator in poorly ventilated areas). If victim is not breathing apply artificial respiration and seek urgent medical attention. Ingestion (Swallowing) For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre on 131126 ( Australia wide) or a doctor. Section 5: FIREFIGHTING MEASURE Suitable Extinguishing Media Dry agent, carbon dioxide or foam. Hazards From Combustion Products Toxic gases (hydrocarbons, carbon oxides) may be evolved when heated.
3 Precautions For Fire Fighters and Special Protective Equipment Remain upwind. Wear full protective equipment (splash proof goggles, butyl (first choice) or rubber/ neoprene gloves, a type A (organic vapour) respirator, coveralls and boots) including Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) when combating fire. Use waterfog to cool intact containers. Additional Information Hazchem Code None allocated. Combustible Explosive vapour. Low volatility reduces fire-explosive potential. Evacuate area and contact emergency services. Remain upwind and notify those downwind of hazard. Prevent contamination of drains or waterways. Absorb runoff with sand or similar inert MATERIAL . Section 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Minor Spills Personal protective equipment should be worn when cleaning up spills. Restrict access to area until completion of cleanup. Prevent spill entering drains or waterways. Absorb spill with sand or similar, collect and place in sealable containers for disposal.
4 Major Spills If spilt, contact emergency services where appropriate. Wear splash proof goggles, butyl (first choice) or rubber/ neoprene gloves, a type A (organic vapour) respirator, coveralls and boots. Ventilate and clear area of all unprotected personnel. Prevent spill entering drains or waterways. Absorb spill with sand or similar, collect and place in sealable containers for disposal. Section 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for Safe Handling Wash hands and face thoroughly after handling and before work breaks, eating, drinking, smoking and using toilet facilities. Page 3 of 5 Date of Issue: December 2011 Product: anti - freeze / anti -Boil Coolant Supplier: Marque Lubricants Section 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE (cont) Conditions for Safe Storage Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from oxidizing agents ( Potassium permanganate, peroxides), acids ( sulfuric acid), phosphorous pentasulfide, sodium hydroxide, foodstuffs, heat or ignition sources.
5 Ensure containers are adequately labeled, protected from physical damage and sealed when not in use. Check regularly for spills or leaks. Store as a Class C1 Combustible Liquid (AS 1940).

7 Section 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION HEALTH EFFECTS Health Hazard Summary Moderate toxicity. This product has the potential to cause acute and chronic health effects with over exposure. Use safe work practices to avoid eye or skin contact and vapour/ mist inhalation. At room temperature ethylene glycol has a low vapour pressure and therefore an inhalation hazard is not anticipated unless heated or sprayed. Chronic or high level acute over exposure may result in kidney and central nervous system damage. Acute Swallowed Moderate toxicity. Ingestion may result in nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, drowsiness and unconsciousness. Chronic exposure may cause kidney damage. Aspiration may result in chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary oedema. Eye Low to moderate irritant. Exposure may result in irritation, pain and redness. Skin Irritant. Prolonged and repeated contact may result in drying and defatting of the skin with rash and dermatitis.
8 Inhaled Low irritant narcotic. Due to the low vapour pressure of ethylene glycol, an inhalation hazard is only anticipated if heated or sprayed. Over exposure may cause mild respiratory irritation with central nervous system depression. Symptoms may include headache, nausea, dizziness and unconsciousness at very high levels. Chronic Chronic or high level acute over exposure may result in kidney and central nervous system damage. TOXICITY data Not available. Section 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Ecotoxicity Not available.
