1. CHEMICAL PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION
Manufacturer: Consumable Products Division Milacron Marketing Company 3000 Disney Street Cincinnati, Ohio 45209	Emergency Telephone Number: 1-800-447-6130 Information Telephone Number: 1-513-458-8199 Generic Name: Water Soluble Metalworking Fluid Concentrate Product Name(s) & Code(s): MILFORM^® 8050H UNDYED 118;

2. EMERGENCY INFORMATION

Product is alkaline. Product is a primary eye irritant. Product may be a primary skin irritant. Highway spills could result in slippery conditions. No other significant health effects are associated with this material.

3. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS OF DIRECT EXPOSURE
	Product Concentrate			Product at Use Dilution
Inhalation	Not Applicable.			Extended Exposure to mists may cause upper respiratory irritation.
Eye Contact	Product is a primary eye irritant.			Will cause stinging sensation in the eye.
Skin Contact	Product may be a primary skin irritant.			Not irritating to the skin when used as directed and good personal hygiene is practiced.
Ingestion	Not orally toxic.			Swallowing small quantities may cause nausea or diarrhea.
When used in applications generating high levels of mist, operator exposure can be minimized by proper ventilation, use of mist collectors or splash guards, as appropriate. If there is doubt about actual mist levels present, monitoring should be conducted. Mild skin irritation (redness and dryness of hands) may be experienced when the diluted product has been contaminated by certain oils by dissolved metals, or when mix ratio is too strong. When problems occur, use of water-resistant barrier creams may be a temporary control measure. Contact CIMCOOL^® Technical Services at 1-513-458-8199 for specific recommendations. Repeated excessive exposures to high amounts of triethanolamine may cause liver and kidney effects. Based on our experience and the toxicity test results for this product, Milacron believes that it does not subject users to significant health risks, except as noted above. This product has been formulated using chemicals, each having their own toxicological properties. It is Milacron policy to inform users of the nature of these properties, even if they are not relevant to use in the finished product. Toxicology testing is done by exposing animals to increasing doses of a chemical and noting the level at which an injury or discomfort is observed. The purpose of the test is to determine if a toxic effect may exist. Every chemical that is tested will show an adverse effect of some kind. Even water is toxic at some level. When reviewing toxicity data, the focus should not be the toxic effect itself, but the exposure level that caused the effect and the margin of safety between the toxic exposure level and the level of exposure expected during product use. As a rule of thumb, the margin of safety (the ratio of the no effect level in animals to the expected workplace exposure) when applying animal data to human exposure should be 100 or greater. This gives a safety factor to account for differences between animal responses and to allow for differing susceptibilities between individuals. The NIOSH Recommended Exposure Level for metalworking fluid mist is 0.5 mg/m³. The safety factors given below are based on the assumption that this is the worst-case exposure to this product. Toxicity Test Results for components: Olefin sulfide: The manufacturer has established a recommended exposure limit of 1 mg/m³ TWA for the sulfide. At a total mist level of 0.5 mg/m³, the potential exposure to olefin sulfide would be less than 0.1 mg/m³. In a four-week inhalation study, small increases in liver, adrenal and spleen weights were observed. A no effect level of 15 mg/m³ was observed in the study (margin of safety = 150). No pathological effects were observed in these organs and the organ weight effects were found to be reversible. The 4-hour LC₅₀ for inhalation exposure in both sexes of mice and guinea pigs exceeds 4,300 mg/m³, giving a margin of safety of over 43,000. After a six-hour inhalation exposure at a concentration of 500 mg/m³, more than half the female rats but none of the male rats exposed died. The projected workplace exposure level to the olefin sulfide is 0.1 mg/m³. The toxic effects were observed at 5,000 times workplace exposure levels.
Carcinogen Listings		NTP: No	IARC: No		OSHA: No
Signs and symptoms of exposure: Eye injury may result from contact with concentrated product. Skin irritation can result from improper use and handling of concentrate or mix.
Medical conditions generally aggravated by exposure: May aggravate existing skin irritation where further defatting or skin penetration could occur.

4. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES

Eyes: In case of eye contact with concentrated product or diluted mix, flush immediately with running water for 15 minutes, then promptly get medical attention to check for possible irritation.

Skin contact: In case of skin contact with product concentrate, wash with water as soon as possible.

Diluted product is not irritating to the skin when used as recommended and good personal hygiene is practiced. Remove severely contaminated clothing, including shoes. Launder before reuse. If irritation persists, get medical attention.

Ingestion: If concentrate or mix is swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Dilute by drinking water or milk. Immediately contact physician and obtain treatment. Swallowing small quantities of diluted product is not expected to cause injury or illness; but, as should be expected when drinking oily, soapy water, nausea, diarrhea or abdominal distress may be experienced.

Inhalation: Not expected to be a probable route of exposure to product concentrate. Inhalation of diluted mix can occur in applications where high mist levels are generated. OSHA has set a PEL of 15 mg/M³ for any airborne particulate as a nuisance level of exposure. NIOSH has set a REL of 0.5 mg/M³ for metalworking fluid mist.

5. CONTROL MEASURES

Respiratory Protection: Product concentrate is not volatile. No misting would be expected when handling product concentrate.

In applications where time-weighted exposures are 0.5 to 5 mg/m³, mist reduction through improved ventilation, mist collection or process modification is recommended by NIOSH. Where this is not possible, NIOSH recommends the use of any air purifying, half-mask respirator including a disposable respirator, equipped with any P- or R-series particulate filter. If the average exposure will exceed 5 mg/m³, NIOSH recommends use of a powered, air-purifying respirator equipped with a hood or helmet and a HEPA filter. If respiratory problems are present when mist levels are < 0.5 mg/m³, respiratory protection should be based on the individual recommendation of a qualified health care provider.

Caution: The appropriate use and type of respirator is dependent upon use of the product and local operating conditions.

Ventilation: For most applications, normal shop ventilation is adequate. However, when high mist levels are generated or where machines are close together or ventilation is inadequate, operators may experience respiratory irritation. For such applications, use of splash guards or mist collectors is recommended.

Eye Protection: Safety shield or goggles required when handling concentrated product.

Other protective clothing or equipment: Effective metalworking plant protective clothing as appropriate.

Work/Hygiene Practices: Good personal hygiene should always be followed.

Protective Gloves: Impervious gloves, such as nitrile gloves, are required when handling product concentrate.
