Residues (coal tar), pitch distn.; Pitch Redistillate; [Residue from the fractional distillation of pitch distillate boiling in the range of approximately 400 °C to 470 °C (752 °F to 846 °F). Composed primarily of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, and heterocyclic compounds.]

Residues (coal tar), pitch distn.; Pitch Redistillate; [Residue from the fractional distillation of pitch distillate boiling in the range of approximately 400 °C to 470 °C (752 °F to 846 °F). Composed primarily of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, and heterocyclic compounds.] 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 Residues (coal tar), pitch distn.; Pitch Redistillate; [Residue from the fractional distillation of pitch distillate boiling in the range of approximately 400 °C to 470 °C (752 °F to 846 °F). Composed primarily of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, and heterocyclic compounds.] should ensure a written hazard communication programme, including current SDS, employee training records, and GHS-compliant labelling on all containers.
