GHS Hazard Classification of Anti-rust Oil

Posted Date:2021/12/29

Anti-rust oil is a reddish-brown oil solvent with anti-rust function. It is composed of oil-soluble corrosion inhibitor, base oil and auxiliary additives. According to performance and use, rust removal oil can be divided into fingerprint removal type antirust oil, water dilution type antirust oil, solvent dilution type antirust oil, antirust lubricating oil, sealed antirust oil, replacement type antirust oil, Thin layer oil, anti-rust grease and vapor phase anti-rust oil, etc. Corrosion inhibitors commonly used in anti-rust oils are fatty acid or alkaline earth metal salt of naphthenic acid, lead naphthenate, zinc naphthenate, sodium petroleum sulfonate, barium petroleum sulfonate, calcium petroleum sulfonate, and tallow trioleate. Amine, rosin amine, etc.

Classification, such as according to use can be divided into: inter-process anti-rust oil, long-term sealed anti-rust oil, anti-rust machine oil, anti-rust instrument oil, etc.; according to its state can be divided into: liquid anti-rust oil, solvent-diluted anti-rust oil , Three types of anti-rust grease. The anti-rust oil is divided into five types: fingerprint-removing anti-rust oil, solvent-diluted anti-rust oil, grease-type anti-rust oil, lubricating oil-type anti-rust oil and vapor-phase anti-rust oil. Anti-rust oil has: anti-rust, zinc Solubility, washability, oil film thickness, workability, oil viscosity, etc.

Here we introduce a "kerosene/anti-rust oil" and analyze its hazards according to the composition.

The main harmful ingredients are kerosene (CAS: 64742-47-8), barium compounds (CAS: 7440-39-3):

Kerosene (CAS: 64742-47-8):

According to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) its hazard determination:

Hazard category

Hazard statement code

Inhalation hazard, category 1

H304: May be fatal if swallowed and enters the respiratory tract.

Barium compound(CAS:7440-39-3):

Hazard category

Hazard statement code

Acute toxicity-oral, category 3

Skin corrosion/irritation, category 1

 

Serious eye damage/eye irritation, category 1

H301: Toxic if swallowed.

H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage.

H318: Causes serious eye damage.

Flammable liquids and vapors may cause explosion hazard in case of open flames, sparks and extremely high temperatures. Burning can release harmful fumes, such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, sulfur oxides, organic compounds and other harmful gases. It can be fatal if swallowed and enters the airways. Causes slight skin irritation. Causes eye irritation. Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.

Production safety method of use:

(1) The work area should be well ventilated.

(2) Operators should have proper protection, such as work clothes, gloves, masks, etc.

(3) Empty packaging barrels should be marked, and heat processing such as welding and cutting should not be carried out before cleaning.

(4) Appropriate fire-fighting tools and spill-cleaning tools should be available in the operation area.
