UNUSAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
Container may rupture or explode under fire conditions. Hazardous decomposition products may be formed (see reactivity data
section.) Under fire conditions, empty containers retain product residue and can be dangerous.
SECTION V HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Routes of Entry: Skin: Yes Inhalation: Yes Ingestion: Not likely
POTENTIAL ACCUTE EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
INGESTION: Ingestion not a likely route of entry
INHALATION: Overexposure by inhalation of concentrated vapors may cause respiratory irritation, nausea,
headache and dizziness. Inhalation may produce anesthetic effects and feeling of euphoria.
Prolonged overexposure can cause rapid breathing, headache, dizziness, narcosis, unconsciousness
and death from asphyxiation, depending on concentration and time of exposure.
SKIN CONTACT: Skin contact with the liquid may cause freezing of the skin (frostbite) or irritation.
EYE CONTACT: Eye contact with liquid or vapor may cause severe irritation, redness, tearing, blurred vision and
possible freeze burns.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY OVEREXPOSURE:
May increase susceptibility to toxicity of excessive exposures in persons with pre-existing diseases of the central nervous or
cardiovascular systems.
EMERGENCY FIRST AIR PROCEDURES:
INGESTION: Ingestion is an unlikely route of exposure. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by
a physician. Seek immediate medical attention.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, restore breathing at once.
Administer oxygen and get immediate medical help.
SKIN : Wash affected area with soap and water. Remove and launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
Treat as frostbite. If irritation develop or if there is evidence of tissue damage, get medical
attention.
EYE : Immediately rinse eyes with running water for 15 minutes. If irritation develops, get medical
attention. Consult physician immediately if frostbite occurs.
SECTION VI REACTIVITY DATA
Stable: Yes
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
Incompatibility (materials to avoid): Powdered or alkaline earth metals.
Hazardous Combustion By-Products: Fluorine compounds and HF
Conditions to Avoid: Ignition sources such as open flames, sparks, static discharges or glowing metal surfaces.
SECTION VII PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
STEPS TO BE TAKE IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED:
Avoid breathing vapors. Evacuate area until vapor has dispersed. Remove all sources of ignition. Stop or reduce discharge if it can
be done safely.
WASTE DISPOSAL:
Empty fully and relieve pressure. Empty containers can be recycled. Dispose according to Local, State and Federal regulations.
SECTIONS VIII PROTECTION INFORMATION
Handling: Minimize breathing of vapors and avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Wear proper
protective equipment. If ventilation is not sufficient, wear proper respiratory equipment. Do not
use near ignition sources. Contents are under pressure. Do not puncture, incinerate, expose to
open flame or temperature above 120掳F. Keep out of direct sunlight. For industrial use only.
SPRAY-2
Keep out of reach of children. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.
Read label precautions. Do not remove or deface label.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from all sources of ignition. Do not store at
temperature above 120掳F.
Eye Protection: Proper eye protection should be worn in any type of industrial operation, such as splash-proof
face-shield or goggles.
Skin Protection: The use of chemically resistant gloves is recommended if there is any possibility of prolonged or
repeated liquid contact with the skin.
Ventilation: Maintain adequate mechanical ventilation to keep employee exposure below manufacturer鈥檚
recommended limits.
