Name:OXYGEN, LOX (LIQUID ONLY), GOX (GAS ONLY)
CAS:7782-44-7
RTECS #:RS2060000
===================== Hazards Identification =====================
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:BREATHING PURE OXYGEN AT ONE ATMOS,MAY
PRODUCE COUGH & CHEST PAINS W/IN 8-24 HOURS.CONCENTRATIONS OF 60%
MAY PRODUCE THESE SYMPTOMS IN SEVERAL DAYS.AT TWO ATMOSSYMPTOMS
OCCUR IN 2-3 HRS.PARTIAL PRESSU RE OF OXY IN EXCESS OF TWO ATMOS
MAY PRODUCE A VARIETY OF CENTRAL NERVOUS SYS MANIFESTATIONS.
Effects of Overexposure:LIQUID OSYGEN OR COLD GAS WILL FREEZE TISSUES &
CAN CAUSE SEVERE CRYOGENIC (EXTREMELY LOW TEMPERATURE)BURNS.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:IF CRYOGENIC LIQUID OR COLD BOIL-OFF GAS CONTACTS A WORKER'S
SKIN OR EYES,FROZEN TISSUES SHOULD BE FLOODED OR SOAKED W/TEPID
WATER(105-115F;41-46C).DO NOT USE HOT WATER.BURNS WHICH RESULT IN
BLISTERI NG OR DEEPER TISSUE FREEZING SHOULD BE SEEN PROMPTLY BY A
PHYSICIAN.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point:NA
Lower Limits:NA
Upper Limits:NA
Extinguishing Media:NA
Fire Fighting Procedures:OXYGEN IS NONFLAMMABLE,BUT SUPPORTS &
VIGOROUSLY ACCELERATES COMBUSTION OF FLAMMABLES.TO FIGHT FIRES,SHUT
OFF SOURCES OF OXYGEN & FIGHT LIKE CONVENTIONAL FIRE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:OXYGEN IS NONFLAMMABLE,BUT SUPPORTS &
VIGOROUSLY ACCELERATES COMBUSTION OF FLAMMABLES.SOME MTRLS WHICH
ARE NONCOMBUSTIBLE IN AIR WILL BURN IN PRESENCE OF OXY.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:PREVENT LIQ OXY FROM CONTACTING
GREASE,OIL,ASPHALTOR COMBUSTIBLES.VENTILATE AREA TO EVAP & DISPERSE
OXY.FLUSH AREA W/LARGE QTYS OF WTR.DO NOT ENTER AREAS OF HIGH
OXYGEN CONCENTRATION,WHICH CAN SATURAT E CLOTHING & INCREASE ITS
FLAMMABILITY.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:USE/STORE IN WELL VENT AREA.DO NOT
DRAG,ROLL OR SLIDE.USE SUITABLE HAND TRUCK.KEEP CYLS AWAY FROM
SOURCES OF HEAT.SEGREGATE FULL/EMPTY CYLS.
Other Precautions:OXYGEN IS NOT TO BE USED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR
COMPRESSED AIR.APPLICATIONS SUCH ASCLEANING,DUSTIN,POWERING
PNEUMATIC TOOLS,ETC.,ARE NOT SAFE DUE TO LUBRICATING OILS & OTHER
MATERIALS PRESENT.USE ONLY W/ EQUIP SPEC DESIGNED & CLEANED FOR OXY

================= Stability and Reactivity Data =================
Stability Indicator/Materials to Avoid:YES
ALL FLAMMABLES,ESPECIALLY PETROLEUM PRODUCTS,ASPHALT,OTHER VOLATILE
FLAMMABLES.
Stability Condition to Avoid:MATERIALS WHICH BURN IN AIR WILL BURN
VIOLENTLY IN ATMOS RICHER THAN APPROX 25% OXYGEN.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:NONE
==================== Disposal Considerations ====================
Waste Disposal Methods:ALLOW LIQ OXY TO EVAP IN A WELL VENT OUTDOOR
AREA.VENT OXY GAS TO OUTSIDE LOCATION.DISPOSAL SITE SHOULD BE
REMOTE FROM WORK AREAS,OPEN FLAMES OR SOURCES OF IGNITION &
COMBUSTIBLES.FLUSHING W/WTR WILL INCREASE THE VAPORIZATION RATE OF
THE LIQUID.
