Substance Type: Substance, not a mixture
Molecular Formula: C57H104O6
Molecular Weight: Approximately 885 g/mol, based on predominant ester forms present
Inhalation: Move exposed person to fresh air if respiratory symptoms occur; unlikely at normal room temperature due to low volatility
Skin Contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water; remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse; seek medical attention if rash or irritation develops
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes cautiously with water for several minutes; remove contact lenses; continue rinsing; seek attention if irritation persists
Ingestion: Rinse mouth; do not induce vomiting; seek medical advice in case of discomfort or persistent symptoms
Most Important Symptoms: Mild irritation, redness, or discomfort possible for sensitive skin or eyes
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, water spray
Hazards from Combustion: Burning may produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, minor amounts of acrolein or other combustion products
Protective Equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear for fires in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas
Firefighting Precautions: Keep run-off from firefighting operations out of drains and waterways
Special Hazards: Product can burn though difficult to ignite; containers exposed to heat may rupture under pressure
Personal Precautions: Use non-slip footwear, gloves, and eye protection to prevent contact and slips
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry to sewers, watercourses, or soil; restrict further spillage using absorbent materials
Methods for Cleanup: Contain spilled liquid with sand or inert absorbent; collect in suitable containers for disposal; clean area fully to avoid residue
Notification: Report larger releases to relevant local authority where required under regulations
Decontamination: Wash affected area with mild detergent and water after bulk removal of material
Handling: Use with adequate ventilation, avoid contact with eyes and skin; prevent formation of aerosols or fine mists
Storage: Store in tightly closed, properly labeled containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area
Incompatibilities: Avoid strong acids, bases, strong oxidizers
Unsuitable Materials: Soft metals may corrode over time due to fatty acid presence; select compatible plastics or stainless steel for containers
Storage Temperature: Best below 40°C; freezing does not generally harm the product but may affect viscosity
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits for this material; monitor for general oil mist in case of high-temperature processing
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation where handling heated material or producing mist/aerosol
Eye Protection: Wear chemical safety goggles or face shield when splashing is possible
Skin Protection: Use chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile, neoprene, or similar); coveralls for frequent/prolonged exposure
Respiratory Protection: Not required under normal handling; use dust mask or respirator if mist/aerosol formation occurs
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands and contaminated skin after handling; do not eat, drink, or smoke in work area
Appearance: Clear, pale yellow to amber oily liquid
Odor: Mild fatty odor
Melting Point: Around -25°C
Boiling Point: Above 300°C (thermal decomposition may occur before boiling)
Flash Point: Approximately 290°C (closed cup)
Autoignition Temperature: Estimated above 350°C
Explosive Limits: Not determined; not expected due to low volatility
Density: Approximately 0.96 g/cm³ at 20°C
Solubility: Insoluble in water; soluble in common organic solvents
Viscosity: 80-100 cSt at 40°C
pH: Not applicable
Vapor Pressure: Negligible at ambient temperature
Chemical Stability: Stable at recommended storage and use conditions
Reactivity: Low reactivity under normal storage and handling
Hazardous Reactions: No dangerous reactions known under normal use
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizers like peroxides, concentrated acids, and alkalis may cause degradation or fire
Hazardous Decomposition: Thermal breakdown produces irritating smoke, carbon oxides, and minor organics
Acute Toxicity: Low; estimated oral LD50 above 2000 mg/kg in rodents; skin LD50 not established but expected low based on structure and use
Skin Corrosion/Irritation: Not corrosive; may cause irritation in sensitive individuals with repeated/prolonged contact
Eye Damage/Irritation: Possible mild, transient irritation; no long-term effects reported
Inhalation Risk: Inhalation unlikely under normal conditions; high temperature mist may irritate respiratory tract
Chronic Effects: No evidence for carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, or reproductive toxicity; limited data, but chemical analogs widely used in food and industry suggest low systemic toxicity
Sensitization: Rare cases reported; not common
Ecotoxicity: Not expected to be highly toxic to aquatic organisms; low water solubility reduces bioavailability but high biological oxygen demand if released in large quantity
Persistence and Degradability: Biodegradable under aerobic conditions; slow rates in anaerobic soil or sediment
Bioaccumulation: Limited due to metabolic breakdown and low aquatic mobility
Mobility in Soil: Tends to bind to soil/crust material; not mobile in groundwater
Other Environmental Hazards: May create film/sheen on water surface if spilled, impacting oxygen transfer temporarily
Waste Treatment Methods: Reuse or recycle where possible; incinerate or land dispose in accordance with local, regional, and national regulations
Container Disposal: Triple-rinse containers, puncture, and render unusable before disposal; follow local requirements
Special Precautions: Do not discharge unprocessed waste into sewers or waterways
