Safety Data Sheet
conditions. Asphyxiant gas, can be fatal. This gas is odorless; carbon dioxide has no warning properties. Can result in
increased respiration, dizziness, shortness of breath and headache. Exposure to high concentrations for a period of time
can result in oxygen deficiency, effects of which may include rapid breathing, diminished mental alertness, impaired
muscular coordination, faulty judgment, depression of all sensations, emotional instability, and fatigue. As asphyxiation
progresses, nausea, vomiting, prostration, and loss of consciousness may result, eventually leading to convulsions, coma
and death. Oxygen deficiency during pregnancy has produced developmental abnormalities in humans and experimental
animals.
Other Hazards: Not available

liquid. Carbon dioxide is an asphyxiant. Lack of oxygen can be fatal. Inhalation: Gas can be toxic as a simple asphyxiant by displacing oxygen from the air. Asphyxia by lack of oxygen: risk of
death. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Skin Contact: Contact with the liquid may cause cold burns/frostbite. Eye Contact: This gas is non-irritating; but direct contact with liquefied/pressurized gas or frost particles may produce
severe and possibly permanent eye damage from freeze burns. Ingestion: Ingestion is not considered a potential route of exposure. Non-irritating, but solid and liquid forms of this
material and pressurized gas may cause freeze burns. Chronic Symptoms: None known. Indication of Any Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment Needed
If exposed or concerned, get medical advice and attention.

SECTION 5 - FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.
 SDS# 1118 Date: 05/01/2025 Page 2 of 8

SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
Description of First Aid Measures
General: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label
where possible). If frostbite or freezing occurs, immediately flush with plenty of lukewarm water to GENTLY warm the
affected area. Do not use hot water. Do not rub affected area. Get immediate medical attention. Inhalation: When symptoms occur: go into open air and ventilate suspected area. Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in
a position comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON CENTER/doctor/physician if you feel unwell. Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Drench affected area with water for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical
attention if irritation persists. Thaw frosted parts with lukewarm water. Do not rub affected area. Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Seek medical attention immediately. Ingestion: Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention. Most Important Symptoms and Effects Both Acute and Delayed
General: May cause frostbite on contact with the liquid. Carbon dioxide is an asphyxiant. Lack of oxygen can be fatal. Inhalation: Gas can be toxic as a simple asphyxiant by displacing oxygen from the air. Asphyxia by lack of oxygen: risk of
death.
