Gas oils (petroleum), light vacuum

Gas oils (petroleum), light vacuum is a complex combination of hydrocarbons produced by the vacuum distillation of the residuum from atmospheric distillation of crude oil. It consists of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C13 through C30 and boiling in the range of approximately 230.degree.C to 450.degree.C (446.degree.F to 842.degree.F).

Non flammable

Confirmed carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic data. Pulmonary aspiration can cause severe pneumonitis. A flammable liquid. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
