7. PRECAUTIONS FOR LITHIUM GREASE USE
a. IDENTIFICATION OF THE RISKS
- It could cause slight irritation to the eyes. Direct exposure near the face can cause itch, tearing and reddening.
It could worsen an already present eyes conjunctivitis (datum based on data related to similar components).
The prolonged contact with the skin could cause irritation which could lead to skin problems like dermatitis, acne and skin fungus.
Vapour inhalation can be harmful. The intentional inhalation of high-concentration vapours could cause minor headaches and nausea, irritation of the oral, nasal and
throat mucous membranes and worsen already existent breathing problems. Unintentional ingestion caused by food contamination caused by greasy hands doesn't
cause problems or side effect. Higher quantities could instead cause irritation of the digestive system, nausea and vomit.
If, during ingestion, grease should reach the lungs, it could cause from minor to major problems to the respiratory system.
b. FIRST AID
- Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, have the person drink two glasses of water. Immediately call a medic.
Rinse mouth for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, call a medic.
Immediately wash the skin with water and soap. Remove dirty clothes.
If irritation persists, call a medic. Wash contaminated clothes.
Move the contaminated person to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen and call a medic.
If irritation persists or if poisoning symptoms are noticed, call a medic.
c. USE AND PRESERVATION
- Avoid a prolonged contact with the skin, a prolonged inhalation of the vapours and the clothes contamination.
Use in a ventilated environment. Wear appropriate protective equipment. Wash all the zones entered in contact with the grease once use is over. Empty containers contain
grease traces. Do not cut, weld or expose the containers to others inflaming sources. Store at temperatures between 1 and 40°C.
d. PERSONAL PROTECTION
- Use in appropriately ventilated areas. Use nitrile or neoprene gloves. Use safety glasses or face masks. Use respirators in closed environment. Use long sleeved shirts or
aprons in order to avoid contact with the skin. Wear nitrile or neoprene boots to avoid contact with the shoes.
e. INFORMATION ON TOXICITY
- The material ingestion could cause gastrointestinal irritations, nausea, vomit, diarrhoea and abdominal pains.
- It shouldn't cause irritation to the eyes
- It shouldn't cause irritation to the skin. A prolonged and repetitive contact could cause irritation
- Keep out from inflaming sources
- Use in ventilated areas only
- Keep out from children's reach
