Flammable gas

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

This material is considered to be hazardous according to regulatory guidelines (see (M)SDS Section 15). POTENTIAL PHYSICAL / CHEMICAL EFFECTS Flammable Gas. Material can release vapors that readily form flammable mixtures. Vapor accumulation could flash and/or explode if ignited. Suffocation (asphyxiant) hazard - if allowed to accumulate to concentrations that reduce oxygen below safe breathing levels. Material can accumulate static charges which may cause an ignition.

Potential health effects

Irritating to skin. May be irritating to the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs. Vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness. Simple asphyxiant: Acts by displacing oxygen in the lungs thereby diminishing the supply of oxygen available to the blood and tissues. Symptoms include shortness of breath, rapid heart rate, incoordination, lethargy, headaches, nausea, vomiting, and disorientation. Continued lack of oxygen may result in convulsions, loss of consciousness and death. Since exercise increases the tissue need for oxygen, symptoms will occur more quickly during exertion in an oxygen-deficient environment. Oxygen in enclosed spaces should be maintained at 21 percent by volume. May cause central nervous system depression. Target Organs: Skin |

Environmental hazards

Toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. NFPA Hazard ID: Health: 1 Flammability: 4 Reactivity: 1 HMIS Hazard ID: Health: 1 Flammability: 4 Reactivity: 1 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.
