Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
DESCRIPTION OF FIRST AID MEASURES
- General advice: First aider needs to protect himself. Move out of dangerous area. Keep warm and in a quiet place. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Take off all contaminated clothing immediately.
- Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Use oxygen as required, provided a qualified operator is present. Call a physician.
- Skin contact: Rapid evaporation of the liquid may cause frostbite. If there is evidence of frostbite, bathe (do not rub) with lukewarm (not hot) water. If water is not available, cover with a clean, soft cloth or similar covering. Call a physician if irritation develops or persists.
- Eye contact: Immediately flush eye(s) with plenty of water. Call a physician immediately.
- Ingestion: Ingestion is unlikely because of the physical properties and is not expected to be hazardous. As this product is a gas, refer to the inhalation section.
MOST IMPORTANT SYMTPOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED
no data available
INDICATION OF ANY IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT NEEDED
Treat frost-bitten areas as needed.
Fire-fighting measures
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
- Suitable extinguishing media: Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment; Water mist; Dry powder; Foam; Carbon dioxide (CO2)
- Extinguishing media which shall not be used for safety reasons: High volume water jet
SPECIAL HAZARDS ARISING FROM THE SUBSTANCE OR MIXTURE
Contents under pressure.
Heating will cause pressure rise with risk of bursting
Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.
Product is not combustible under normal conditions.
However, this material can ignite when mixed with air under pressure and exposed to strong ignition sources.
Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Vapours are heavier than air and can cause suffocation by reducing oxygen available for breathing.
Some risk may be expected of corrosive and toxic decomposition products.
Fire may cause evolution of:
Carbon monoxide
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Carbonyl halides
Hydrogen fluoride
Hydrogen iodide (HI)
ADVICE FOR FIREFIGHTERS
In the event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
No unprotected exposed skin areas.
Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health.
Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.
Accidental release measures
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
Use personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Immediately evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ventilate the area. After release, disperses into the air. Provide adequate ventilation. Vapours are heavier than air and can cause suffocation by reducing oxygen available for breathing. Avoid skin contact with leaking liquid (danger of frostbite).
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. The product evapourates readily. Prevent spreading over a wide area (e.g. by containment or oil barriers).
METHODS AND MATERIALS FOR CONTAINMENT AND CLEANING UP
Do not direct water spray at the point of leakage.
Allow to evaporate.
Handling and storage
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING
- Advice on safe handling: Handle with care. Avoid inhalation of vapour or mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Wear personal protective equipment. Pressurized container. Protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C. Use authorized cylinders only. Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material.
- Advice on protection against fire and explosion: Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material. Keep away from direct sunlight. Fire or intense heat may cause violent rupture of packages. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. The product is not easily combustible.
- Hygiene measures: Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Keep working clothes separately.
CONDITIONS FOR SAFE STORAGE, INCLUDING ANY INCOMPATIBILITIES
- Requirements for storage areas and containers: Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep away from direct sunlight. Store away from incompatible substances. Protect from physical damage.
