======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHAL: IMMED GET FRESH AIR. KEEP CALM. IF BREATH STOP, GIVE
ARTIF RESP/IF DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. CALL DR. SKIN: CLEAN SKIN
AFTER USE. EYE: IMMED FLUSH W/WATER. CALL DR. "NOTES TO PHYSICIAN":
BECAUSE OF POSSIBLE DISTURBANCES OF CARDIAC RHYTHM, CATECHOLAMINE
DRUGS, SUCH AS EPINEPHRINE, SHOULD BE USED WITH SPECIAL CAUTION
ONLY IN SITUATIONS OF EMERGENCY LIFE SUPPORT.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point:WILL NOT BURN
Extinguishing Media:AS APPROPRIATE FOR COMBUSTIBLES IN AREA.
Fire Fighting Procedures:SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS IS REQUIRED
IF CYLINDERS RUPTURE OR RELEASE UNDER FIRE CONDITIONS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CYLINDERS ARE EQUIPPED WITH TEMPERATURE
AND PRESSURE RELIEF DEVICES BUT STILL MAY RUPTURE UNDER FIRE
CONDITIONS. DECOMPOSITION MAY OCCUR.
Spill Release Procedures:REVIEW FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS & SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH CLEAN-UP. USE APPROPRIATE
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT DURING CLEANING. VENT AREA-ESPEC LOW
PLACES WHERE HEAVY VAPORS MIGHT COLLECT. RMV OPEN FLAMES. USE SCBA
FORLG SPILLS.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:CLEAN, DRY AREA. DO NOT HEAT ABOVE 125
DEGREES F.
Other Precautions:N/K ####50,000 PPM. SLIGHT BUT SIGNIFICANT INCREASE
IN DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY (EYE MALFORMATIONS, DECREASED FETAL
WEIGHTS) OBSERVED IN OFFSPRING OF RATS EXPOSED TO HIGH CONC (50,000
PPM) OF FC-22. HOW EVER NO INDICATION OF ADVERSE#####
Ventilation:NORM VENT-GEN ADEQ. LOCAL EXHAUST SHOULD BE USED WHEN LARGE
AMOUNTS ARE RELEASED. MECH VENT SHOULD BE USED IN LOW PLACES
Protective Gloves:NEOPRENE RUBBER GLOVES.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES.
Other Protective Equipment:SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS IS
REQUIRED IF A SPILL OR RELEASE OCCURS.
