wd40 ingredients, according to their MSDS sheet.
http://www.wd40company.com/files/pdf...d482671453.pdf
Aliphatic Hydrocarbon 45-50%
Petroleum Base Oil <25%
LVP Aliphatic Hydrocarbon 12-18%
Surfactant <2%
Non-Hazardous Ingredients <10%
Aliphatic compound
Any organic chemical compound in which the carbon atoms are joined in straight chains, as in hexane (C6H14), or in branched chains, as in 2-methylpentane (CH3CH(CH3)CH2CH2CH 3).
Hydrocarbon 50%
Any of a class of chemical compounds containing only hydrogen and carbon (for example, the alkanes and alkenes). Hydrocarbons are obtained industrially principally from petroleum and coal tar.
Physical Properties of Petroleum-Based Oil 25%
Petroleum-based oil describes a broad range of natural hydrocarbon-based substances and refined petroleum products, each having a different chemical composition. As a result, each type of crude oil and refined product has distinct physical properties, that affect the way oil spreads and breaks down, the hazard it may pose to marine and human life, and the likelihood that it will pose a threat to natural and man-made resources. For example, light refined products, such as gasoline and kerosene, spread on water surfaces and penetrate porous soils quickly. Fire and toxic hazards are high, but the products evaporate quickly and leave little residue. Alternatively, heavier refined oil products may pose a lesser fire and toxic hazard and do not spread on water as readily. Heavier oils are more persistent, however, and may present a greater remediation challenge.
LVP Aliphatic Hydrocarbon 18% Same as above just with a lower vapor pressure (LVP).
Carbon Dioxide 3%, inert gas that is used as a propellant (in the canned version the above list is for the bulk non compressed WD-40), Also used in beer and soda. This is the main cause for Beer farts.
Non-Hazardous Ingredients <10% Typically proprietary ingredients.
It’s NOT Fish Oil!
