===================== Hazards Identification =====================
LD50 LC50 Mixture:LC 50 ORAL RAT >800,000 MG/KG (CCL2F2)
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: VAPOR IS HEAVIER THAN AIR
AND CAN CAUSE SUFFOCATION BY REDUCING OXYGEN AVAILABLE FOR
BREATHING. BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR MAY CAUSE
LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF B REATH, AND MAY LEAD TO
NARCOSIS, CARDIAC IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS OR DEATH.
SKIN/EYE: IRRITATION AND FROSTBITE.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:DICHLORODIFLUOROMETHANE (FREON 12) IS
NOT LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN BY IARC, NTP OR OSHA.
Effects of Overexposure:BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR MAY
CAUSE LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF BREATH, AND MAY
LEAD TO NARCOSIS, CARDIAC IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS OR DEATH.
LIQUID IS IRRITATING TO S KIN AND EYES, AND MAY CAUSE FROSTBITE.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH KNOWN HISTORY OF HEART
DISEASE OR IRREGULARITIES OF HEARTBEAT SHOULD BE PARTICULARY
CAREFUL TO AVOID OVEREXPOSURE TO THESE VAPORS.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR, CALL A PHYSICIAN. IF NOT
BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT,
GIVE OXYGEN. DO NOT GIVE EPINEPHRINE OR SIMILAR DRUGS. EYE: FLUSH
WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN:
WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF FROSTBITE, WARM SKIN SLOWLY. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Extinguishing Media:USE WATER FOG, CARBON DIOXIDE, FOAM, OR DRY
CHEMICAL AS APPROPRIATE FOR SURROUNDINGS.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR FIRE FIGHTING PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND A
FULL FACED SELF CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. EVACUATE AREA. COOL
FIRE EXPOSED CONTAINERS WITH WATER SPRAY.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:COMBUSTION OR HEAT OF FIRE MAY PRODUCE
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS AND VAPORS.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:VENTILATE AREA. KEEP UPWIND, EVACUATE ENCLOSED
SPACE. DISPERSE GAS WITH FLOOR-LEVEL FORCED AIR VENTILATION OR
WATER SPRAY. DO NOT SMOKE. REMOVE FLAMES, HEATING ELEMENTS, GAS
ENGINES, ETC.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN A CLEAN, COOL, DRY AND
WELL-VENTILATED AREA OF LOW FIRE RISK. PROTECT CONTAINERS FROM
PHYSICAL DAMAGE AND KEEP TIGHTLY CLOSED.
Other Precautions:AVOID BREATHING VAPOR, LIQUID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN
OR CLOTHING. DO NOT DROP, REUSE, OR REFILL CONTAINER. DO NOT STORE
NEAR HEAT OR IN DIRECT SUN. KEEP CONTAINERS BELOW 120 F. READ LABEL
BEFORE USE.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:NONE REQUIRED FOR ADEQUATELY VENTED WORK
SITUATIONS. FOR ACCIDENTAL OR NON-VENTILATED SITUATIONS, USE A
SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS OR SUPPLIED-AIR RESPIRATOR,
APPROVED BY NIOSH.
