No chemical resistance to liquids or vapors. <br />Poly -Coated Tyvglc--' <br />Better chemical resistance to solids and liquids. <br />Saranex <br />Good for a broad range of chemical including acids, caustics, and chlorinated <br />hydrocarbons. <br />Green Guardian <br />Best resistance to acid and caustic liquids. <br />This section identifies the chemical hazards which will be communicated to employees and AES retained sub -contractors <br />on-site. <br />1. Specific Chemical Hazards. <br />The following chemicals hazardous have been historically identified and documented with respect to refined <br />petroleum products and waste. <br />Products and waste associated with this site health and safety plan include gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, kerosene, <br />motor oil, bunker oil and mixtures thereof <br />a. Gasoline. <br />Extremely flammable, dangerous fire and explosion risk. Benzene (a known carcinogen) is a component. <br />In addition, aged gasoline may contain lead compounds (tetraethyl lead) <br />Benzene is moderately toxic by ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption <br />Tetraethyl lead is toxic by ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption. <br />Diesel /Kerosene /Fuel Oil.�"P •9- <br />Moderate fire risk.
