Paraffin waxes (coal), brown-coal-high-temp. tar; Coal Tar Extract; [A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from lignite carbonization tar by solvent crystallisation (solvent deoiling), by sweating or an adducting process. It consists predominantly of straight and branched chain saturated hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly greater than C12.]
Handling and Storage Guidance for Paraffin waxes (coal), brown-coal-high-temp. tar; Coal Tar Extract; [A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from lignite carbonization tar by solvent crystallisation (solvent deoiling), by sweating or an adducting process.

Paraffin waxes (coal), brown-coal-high-temp. tar; Coal Tar Extract; [A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from lignite carbonization tar by solvent crystallisation (solvent deoiling), by sweating or an adducting process. It consists predominantly of straight and branched chain saturated hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly greater than C12.] is classified as potentially carcinogenic. Exposure must be minimised using engineering controls (local exhaust ventilation, closed systems). Biological and medical monitoring may be required. Refer to the full Safety Data Sheet (SDS) Section 8 for occupational exposure limits.
This substance carries the signal word DANGER, indicating the more severe hazard categories under GHS/CLP. Facilities handling Paraffin waxes (coal), brown-coal-high-temp. tar; Coal Tar Extract; [A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from lignite carbonization tar by solvent crystallisation (solvent deoiling), by sweating or an adducting process. It consists predominantly of straight and branched chain saturated hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly greater than C12.] should ensure a written hazard communication programme, including current SDS, employee training records, and GHS-compliant labelling on all containers.
