RXSOL Cold Flow Improver and Pourpoint Dispersant is a versatile product to improve the flow in winter (Low temperature). This also reduced risk of fuel waxing and solidification. This product reduces pour point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP), by an average of 15°C and 10°C respectively. This brings about many safety and financial benefits to the end user
Benefit :
- Maintain pumpability, filterability and operability, avoiding fuel starvation and loss of propulsion
- Improve reliability of lifeboats and other emergency equipment
- Treat MGO storage tanks, may reduce or even eliminate heating requirements
A distillate fuel paraffin’s. The paraffin’s are quite large molecules and have a tendency to come together and form larger structures as the temperature drops in the fuel. The paraffin’s can also be referred to as wax and a fuel with high wax content will have a tendency to cause wax formation at higher temperatures. Once the wax particles has formed they are difficult to dissolve back into the fuel. The RXSOL Cold Flow Improver and Pour Point Dispersant stoped to make the particle in fuel and maintain it flow rate.
RXSOL Cold Flow Improver and Pour Point Dispersant should be dosed to the fuel tank prior to filling. The recommended dosage is one litre to one thousand litres of fuel (1:1000 or 1000 ppm). In case of poor response, dosage can be increased to one litre to five hundred litres of fuel (1:500 or 2000 ppm)
Please note: The dosing temperature should always be at least 5oC above the measured cloud point of the fuel.

| Hazard Statements |
Eye contact : may cause eye irritation with discomfort, tearing or blurring of vision. |
| Precautionary statements - prevention |
Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces - No smokin Keep/store away from clothing/combustible materials. Keep only in original container. P260 Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. |
| Precautionary statements - response |
IF SWALLOWED: rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. IF ON SKIN : removeimmediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with soap water/shower. IF INHALED: remove person to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. IF IN EYES: rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. In case of fire: use sand, carbon dioxide or powder extinguisher for extinction. Absorb spillage to prevent material damage. |
| Eye Contact | Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention. |
| Skin Contact | Flush skin with water after contact. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. |
| Inhalation: | If inhaled, If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician. |
| Ingestion: |
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Allow victim to rinse his mouth and then to drink 2-4 cupfuls of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician. |
| Notes to Physicians | Activated charcoal mixture may be administered. To prepare activated charcoal mixture, suspend 50 grams activated charcoal in 400-ml water and mix thoroughly. Administer 5 ml/kg or 350 ml for an average adult. Because of the danger of aspiration, emesis or gastric lavage should not be employed unless the risk is justified by the presence of additional toxic substances. Activated charcoal may induce vomiting, but may be given after emesis or lavage to absorb toxic additives. Steroid therapy in mild to moderate cases does not improve outcome. Bacterial pneumonia often occurs after exposure, but prophylactic antibiotics are not indicated and should be reserved for documented bacterial pneumonia. |

| Other information |
Heavy Aromatic Naphtha is a severe skin irritant, and is an eye irritant, but is not a skin sensitizer in animals. Repeated inhalation exposures caused reduced growth rate, respiratory tract irritation, congestion in liver and spleen, changes in blood tests and equilibrium disturbances. No animal test reports are available to define carcinogenic, mutagenic, developmental or reproductive hazards. Chronic overexposure to 2-ethylhexanoic acid has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in laboratory animals and may aggravate pre-existing disorders of these organs in humans: liver, abnormalities, kidney damage, lung damage, cardiac abnormality, blood abnormalities and spleen damage. This component has produced liver and kidney effects in laboratory animals. It has also produced developmental effects in oral studies in laboratory animals including teratogenicity at maternally |
