Potential health effects
Skin contact with the liquid may include mild skin irritation mainly due to rapid evaporation, with possible discomfort or rash. Prolonged skin contact may cause temporary tingling, numbness, coldness, or drying of skin. There are no reports of human sensitization. Significant skin permeation, and systemic toxicity, after contact appears unlikely. Eye contact with the liquid may include mild eye irritation with discomfort, tearing, or blurring of vision. Inhalation of high concentrations may include: temporary nervous system depression with anaesthetic effects such as dizziness, headache, confusion, incoordination, and loss of consciousness. Gross overexposure may cause temporary alteration of the heart’s electrical activity with irregular pulse, palpitations, or inadequate circulation. One report in the literature cites several volunteers exposed to high concentrations of FC-114 from an aerosol can, experienced a temporary alteration of respiration and lowered heart rate. CARCINOGENICITY INFORMATION None of the components present in this material at concentrations equal to or greater than 0.1% are listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA or ACGIH as a carcinogen.
