<br />Safety Data Sheet <br />Material Name: Diesel Fuel, All Types SDS No. 9909 <br /> <br />____________________________________________________________  <br />Page 6 of 10 Revision Date 8/30/12 <br />  <br />Conditions to Avoid <br />Avoid high temperatures, open flames, sparks, welding, smoking and other ignition sources. <br />Incompatible Products <br />Keep away from strong oxidizers. <br />Hazardous Decomposition Products <br />Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and non-combusted hydrocarbons (smoke). <br />* * * Section 11 - Toxicological Information * * * <br />Acute Toxicity <br />A: General Product Information <br />Harmful if swallowed. <br />B: Component Analysis - LD50/LC50 <br />Naphthalene (91-20-3) <br />Inhalation LC50 Rat >340 mg/m3 1 h; Oral LD50 Rat 490 mg/kg; Dermal LD50 Rat >2500 mg/kg; Dermal LD50 <br />Rabbit >20 g/kg <br /> <br />Potential Health Effects: Skin Corrosion Property/Stimulativeness <br />Practically non-toxic if absorbed following acute (single) exposure. May cause skin irritation with prolonged or <br />repeated contact. Liquid may be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts if large areas of skin are repeatedly <br />exposed. <br />Potential Health Effects: Eye Critical Damage/ Stimulativeness <br />Contact with eyes may cause mild irritation. <br />Potential Health Effects: Ingestion <br />Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal disturbances, including irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, and central <br />nervous system (brain) effects similar to alcohol intoxication. In severe cases, tremors, convulsions, loss of <br />consciousness, coma, respiratory arrest, and death may occur. <br />Potential Health Effects: Inhalation <br />Excessive exposure may cause irritations to the nose, throat, lungs and respiratory tract. Central nervous system <br />(brain) effects may include headache, dizziness, loss of balance and coordination, unconsciousness, coma, <br />respiratory failure, and death. <br /> <br />WARNING: the burning of any hydrocarbon as a fuel in an area without adequate ventilation may result in <br />hazardous levels of combustion products, including carbon monoxide, and inadequate oxygen levels, which may <br />cause unconsciousness, suffocation, and death. <br />Respiratory Organs Sensitization/Skin Sensitization <br />This product is not reported to have any skin sensitization effects. <br />Generative Cell Mutagenicity <br />This material has been positive in a mutagenicity study. <br />Carcinogenicity <br />A: General Product Information <br />Suspected of causing cancer. <br />
