  • Preliminary hazard: Hot burns when supplied in bulk
  • Necessary care must be taken during storage, handling, transportation & application of product.
  • Do not ingest, breathe fumes or vapours.
  • Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
  • Product tanks may be heated by hot oil, electricity or flame tubes.
  • Bitumen temperature should be kept at least 30°C below flash point.
  • Do not exceed the recommended maximum temperature of 150°C in order to avoid degradation of the product and fuming.
  • Do not allow water or any liquid to contact with hot product since this could cause splashing of hot material or boil-over.
  • Concentration of H2S in tank headspaces may reach hazardous values, especially under prolonged storage.
  • When product is pumped from a storage tank or road tanker, care should be taken no to expose hot heater tubes unless sufficiently cooled to avoid the risk of fire or explosion.
