Comments

TSCA Definition 2008: Petroleum distillates from a thermal cracking process consisting of unsaturated hydrocarbons with carbon numbers of C15 through C36 and a boiling point range of 260 deg C to 480 deg C; Likely to contain 5% or more of 4- to 6-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; [ChemIDplus] May contain hydrogen sulfide in vapor space of storage container or vessel (heating increases this risk); May cause irritation; Harmful by ingestion (may cause lung damage by aspiration); [Total Petrochemicals MSDS] See "Hydrogen sulfide."
