General Description
Pale yellow oily liquid with a weak, fatty odor. Floats on water. (USCG, 1999)
Hazards
Reactivity Alerts
none
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Fire Hazard

Health Hazard
None-is a food. (USCG, 1999)
Reactivity Profile
OILS, EDIBLE: VEGETABLE react with acids to liberate heat. Heat is also generated by interaction with caustic solutions. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing with alkali metals and hydrides. React slowly with oxygen in the air to become rancid.
Belongs to the Following Reactive Group(s)
- Esters, Sulfate Esters, Phosphate Esters, Thiophosphate Esters, and Borate Esters
- Hydrocarbons, Aliphatic Unsaturated
Potentially Incompatible Absorbents
Use caution: Liquids with this reactive group classification have been
known to react with the
absorbent
listed below.

First Aid
Excerpt from NIOSH Pocket Guide for Vegetable oil mist:
Eye: IRRIGATE IMMEDIATELY - If this chemical contacts the eyes, immediately wash (irrigate) the eyes with large amounts of water, occasionally lifting the lower and upper lids. Get medical attention immediately.
Breathing: FRESH AIR - If a person breathes large amounts of this chemical, move the exposed person to fresh air at once. Other measures are usually unnecessary. (NIOSH, 2023)
