Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
This material is hazardous according to regulatory guidelines (see (M)SDS Section 15). CLASSIFICATION OF SUBSTANCE OR MIXTURE Flammable Gas, Category 1A Gas under pressure: Liquefied gas
Signal word
Danger
Hazard statements
Physical: H220: Extremely flammable gas. H280: Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated.
Prevention
P210: Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking.
Response
P377 Leaking gas fire Do not extinguish, unless leak can be stopped safely P381: In case of leakage, eliminate all ignition sources.
Storage
P410 + P403: Protect from sunlight. Store in a well-ventilated place.
Other physicochemical hazards
Suffocation (asphyxiant) hazard - if allowed to accumulate to concentrations that reduce oxygen below safe breathing levels. Frostbite hazard - rapidly expanding gas or liquid may cause frostbite. Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an ignition. Material can release vapours that readily form flammable mixtures. Vapour accumulation could flash and/or explode if ignited.
Health hazards
High-pressure injection under skin may cause serious damage. Continued exposure to odorised gas may reduce or eliminate ability to smell the odorant. People with impaired ability to detect odour due to colds, allergies, injuries etc must be especially cautious. Odour must not be used exclusively as a safety measure. Proper respiratory protection and fire/explosion precautions should be utilised when odour is first detected. Exposure to concentrations above 10% of the LEL may cause a general central nervous system (CNS) depression typical of anesthetic gases or intoxicants. Excessive exposure may result in eye, skin, or respiratory irritation.
Environmental hazards
No significant hazards. NOTE: This material should not be used for any other purpose than the intended use in Section 1 without expert advice. Health studies have shown that chemical exposure may cause potential human health risks which may vary from person to person.
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
