Distillates (petroleum), hydrotreated light paraffinic

Distillates (petroleum), hydrotreated light paraffinic is a complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained by treating a petroleum fraction with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. It consists of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C15 through C30 and produces a finished oil with a viscosity of less than 100 SUS at 100.degree.F (19cSt at 40.degree.C). It contains a relatively large proportion of saturated hydrocarbons.

Non flammable

Confirmed carcinogen. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
