SECTION 2: COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
Chemical Name CAS# Wt. % Range
Tetrafluoroethane 811-97-2 100%
SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview: Clear, colorless liquefied gas. This product is nonflammable. Exposure to liquid may cause frostbite.
Eyes: Contact with liquid is irritating and may cause frostbite.
Skin: Contact causes frostbite; prolonged contact can cause skin irritation.
Ingestion: Unlikely due to volatile nature of product. Contact with liquid may cause frostbite to mouth and throat tissues.
Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled. High concentrations of vapors in immediate area can displace oxygen and can cause dizziness, unconsciousness, and even death with
longer exposure. Keep people away from such vapors without self-contained breathing apparatus.
Pre-Existing Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Heart, lung, skin, eye.
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes: Treat for possible frostbite, then flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes.
Have eyes examined and tested by medical personnel if irritation develops or persists.
Skin: Treat for possible frostbite, then wash skin with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persist.
Wash clothing separately before reuse.
Ingestion: Treat for possible frostbite. Swallowing less than an ounce will not cause significant harm. For larger amounts, do not induce vomiting. Get immediate
medical attention.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: None to boiling (TCC) LEL/UEL: Nonflammable
Extinguishing Media: Use alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, or water spray when fighting fires involving this material.
Fire Fighting Instructions: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus (pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Large Spills: Shut off leak if possible and safe to do so. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and appropriate personal protective equipment. Absorb spill with
inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth), then place in a chemical waste container for proper disposal. Do not flush to sewer. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches
which lead to waterways.
Small Spills: Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth), then place in a chemical waste container for proper disposal.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Wash hands before eating. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing product vapor or mist.
Do not reuse this container. Store in a cool dry place away from heat, sparks and flame. Keep container closed when not in use. Do not store in direct sunlight.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure Guidelines: OTHER
