Inhalation : Remove to fresh air. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respirat ion. Use oxygen as required, provided a qualified operator is present. Call a physician.

Skin contact : Rapid evapouration 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 : Rinse immediately with plen ty of water, also under the eyelids,

for at least 15 minutes. In case of frostbite water should be lukewarm, not hot. If symptoms persist, call a physician.

Ingestion : Unlikely route of exposure. As this product is a gas, refer to the inhalation section. Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. Call a physician immediately.

Notes to physician

Treatment : Treat frost-bitten areas as needed.

SECTION 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable extinguishing media : The product is not flammable. Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or

carbon dioxide. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment.

Specific hazards during firefighting : Contents under pressure. This product is not flammable at ambient temperatures and atmospheric pressure. However, this material can ignite when mixed with air under pressure and exposed to strong ignition sources. Container may rupture on heating. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. 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. In case of fire hazardous decomposition products may be produced such as:

Hydrogen fluoride

Carbon monoxide Carbon dioxide (CO2) Carbonyl halides

Special protective equipment 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.

SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions : Immediately evacuate personnel to safe areas. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Wear personal protective equipment. Unprotected persons must be kept away. Remove all sources of ignition. Avoid skin contact with leaking liquid (danger of frostbite).

Ventilate the area. After release, disperses into the air. Vapours are heavier than air and can cause suffocation by reducing oxygen available for breathing. Avoid accumulation of vapours in low areas. Unprotected personnel should not return until air has been

tested and determined safe. Ensure that the oxygen content is >= 19.5%.

Environmental precautions : Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. The product evapourates readily.

Methods for cleaning up : Ventilate the area. Allow to evapourate.

SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling

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. Follow all standard safety precautions for handling and use of compressed gas cylinders. Use authorized cylinders only. Protect cylinders from physical damage. Do not puncture or drop cylinders, expose them to open flame

or excessive heat. Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material. Do not remove screw cap until immediately ready for use. Always replace cap after use.

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.

Storage

Requirements for storage

areas and containers : Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep away from direct sunlight.

Further information on storage conditions : Keep only in the original container at temperature not exceeding 50°C

SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONT ROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Protective measures : Do not breathe vapour. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to

the workstation location.

Engineering measures : General room vent ilation is adequate for storage and handling. Perform filling operations only at stations with exhaust

ventilation facilities.

Eye protection : Wear as appropriate:

Safety glasses with side-shields If splashes are likely to occur, wear: Goggles or face shield, giving complete protection to eyes

Hand protection : Leather gloves In case of contact through splashing: Protective gloves Neoprene gloves Polyvinyl alcohol or nitrile- butyl-rubber gloves

Skin and body protection : Avoid skin contact with leaking liquid (danger of frostbite). Wear cold insulating gloves/ face shield/ eye protection.

Respiratory protection : In case of insuffi cient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Wear a positive-pressure supplied-air respirator. Vapours are heavier than air and can cause suffocation by reducing oxygen available for breathing.For rescue and maintenance work in storage tanks use selfcontained breathing apparatus.

Hygiene measures : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Do not breathe vapour. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Keep working clothes separately.
