Appearance and Odor: Clear to dark brown liquid with a foul odor.
Primary Health Hazards: The primary health hazards are due to skin exposure to the liquid and/or inhalation of the vapor or mist.
Emergency and First-Aid Procedures
Ingestion: Not applicable under normal use. If swallowed, can produce nausea, serious illness, and even death (average lethal dose for an adult is 4-6 ounces). DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give edible oil or mineral oil to drink. Get immediate medical help.
Eye Contact: Liquid turpentine may cause irritation, conjunctivitis, or corneal burns. Vapors are irritating at 175 ppm. Speed is essential. Immediately flush with running water for at least 15 minutes, including under eyelid. Get immediate medical help.
Skin Contact: May cause irritation, dermatitis, or chemical burns. Remove contaminated clothing, footwear, and accessories such as a watch. Wash clothing before reuse and discard footwear which cannot be decontaminated. Immediately wash with warm running water and soap. Get medical help.
Skin Absorption: Liquid can penetrate skin to produce systemic effects. Wash thoroughly with soap and water and rinse.
Inhalation: May cause headache, dizziness, chest pain, bronchitis, pulmonary edema, cyanosis, narcosis, and rapid heart rate. Remove from exposure. Get medical help if symptoms persist or for excessive exposure.
Fire and Explosion Data
Flash Point: 23° to 35°C.CAUTION: The flash point of crude sulfate turpentine may be dependent on the concentration and type of sulfur compounds present.
Flammable Limits: LFL = 0.8% by volume UFL = no known data available
Extinguishing Media: Foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical. If water must be used, use as a mist or fog only.
Autoignition Temperature: 253°C
Special Firefighting Procedures: Water may be ineffective in quenching fire, but can be used to cool fire-exposed containers and surroundings. Toxic gases may be released during fire. Use SCBA and full protective clothing.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: May be ignited by heat, sparks, flame or static electricity. Forms explosive vapor/air mixtures.
Accidental release measures
Steps to be Taken In Case Material Is Released or Spilled: Immediately notify safety and environmental personnel. Provide adequate explosion-proof ventilation to remove vapors from spill area. Personnel involved in cleanup should use protection against breathing vapors or contact with liquid. Spills should be contained, picked up with absorbent material, and placed in a closed metal container for prompt disposal.
Other Precautions: Avoid inhalation of vapors or mist. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not smoke in areas of storage or use.
Rules of the reference and storage
Precautions to be Taken In Handling and Storage: Store in a well-ventilated, cool place away from sources of heat and ignition. Store away from oxidizing agents. Protect containers against physical damage.
Exposure controls/personal protection
Respiratory protection: Suitable respiratory equipment with an organic vapor chemical cartridge is recommended
Hand protection: Protective gloves as nitrile are recommended
Eye protection: Safety goggles or full-face mask are recommended
Skin and body protection: Apron, boots, face shield, or rubber suit, chemical-cartridge respirator or air-supplied or self-contained respirator recommended for non-routine or emergency exposures above the allowable exposure limits
Work: Eyewash stations and safety showers should be readily accessible. Provide local exhaust as needed so that exposure limits are met. Provide general ventilation in processing and storage areas so that exposure limits are met.
Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) recommended when fighting fire.

Stability
Chemical stability: Product is chemically stable
Conditions to Avoid: This material is reasonably stable when stored in a well-ventilated, cool place in a suitable container sealed to exclude air. It can undergo auto-oxidation in air, liberating heat which can build up in a confined space.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Oxidizing agents, oxidation catalysts, and sources of ignition and heat.
Hazardous Decomposition or By-Products: Methyl mercaptan, Dimethyl sulfide
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Crude sulfate turpentine is a flammable liquid which may be ignited or explode as the result of a static electricity discharge.
Toxicity
Toxicity Data: Individual component information listed below.
Components:
Turpentine: TCLo (inhalation, human) = 175 ppm. LD50 (ingestion, rat) = 5,760 mg/kg. LC50 (inhalation, rat) = 12 gm/m3/6H. LC50 (inhalation, mouse) = 29 gm/m3/2H.
Dimethyl disulfide: LC50 (rat, inhalation) = 805 ppm/4 hours. LC50 (rat, inhalation) = 15.85 mg/m3/2 hours. LC50 (mouse, inhalation) = 12.3 mg/m3/2 hours. Subchronic (rat, inhalation): 100 ppm/6 hours/day/5 days/week/4 weeks resulted in no toxicity.
Dimethyl sulfide: LD50 (ingestion, rat) = 3300 mg/kg. LD50 (ingestion, mouse) = 3700 mg/kg. LC50 (inhalation, rat) = 40,250 ppm/4H.
Methyl mercaptan: LC50 (rat, inhalation) = 675ppm/4 hr; LC50 (mouse, inhalation) = 6530 ug/m3/2 hr
Target Organs: Respiratory system, eyes, skin and central nervous system.
