Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:NO Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:LOW CONC (3 TO 5 MOLOR %) CAUSE
INCREASED RESP & HEADACHE. 8 TO 15 MOLOR % CONC CAUSE HEADACHE,
NAUSEA AND VOMITING WHICH MAY LEAD TO UNCONSCIOUSNESS IF NOT MOVED
TO OPEN AIR OR GIVEN OXYGEN. HIGHER C ONC CAUSE RAPID CIRCULATORY
INSUFFICIENCY LEADING TO COMA & DEATH. MAINTAIN OXYGEN LEVS >19.5%
AT (SEE EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NOT RELEVANT
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: SEA LEVEL. CARBON DIOXIDE IS THE MOST
POWERFUL CEREBRAL VASODILATOR KNOWN. INHALING LARGE CONC CAUSES
RAPID CIRCULATORY INSUFFICIENCY LEADING TO COMA AND DEATH. CHRONIC,
HARMFUL EFTS ARE NOT KNOWN FROM REPEATED INHAL OF LOW (3 TO5 MOLOR

Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHAL: PROMPT MED ATTN IS MANDATORY IN ALL CASES OF OVEREXP
TO CO*2. RESCUE PERS SHOULD BE EQUIPPED W/NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD SCBA.
CONSCIOUS PERSON SHOULD BE ASST TO AN UNCONTAM AREA AND INHALE
FRESH AIR. QUICK REMOVAL FROM CONTAM AREA IS MOST IMPORTANT.
UNCONSCIOUS PERSONS SHOULD BE MOVED TO AN UNCONTAM AREA, GIVEN
MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESUSCITATION & SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN. FURTHER
TREATMENT (SEE SUPP DATA)
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Lower Limits:NONE
Upper Limits:NONE
Extinguishing Media:USE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA SUITABLE FOR THE

Spill Release Procedures:EVAC ALL PERS FROM AFFECTED AREA. USE APPROP
PROT EQUIP. IF LEAK IS IN USER'S EQUIP, BE CERTAIN TO PURGE PIPING
W/AN INERT GAS PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING REPAIRS. IF LEAK IS IN CNTNR OR
CNTNR VALVE, CONTACT CHEMTREC. NOTE THAT CO*2 WILL (SEE INGRED 2)
