Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
NFPA Rating Emergency Overview PYROPHORIC GAS! This product is a colorless, air-reactive gas, with a choking effect. This gas usually ignites upon contact with air, releasing a dense white cloud of amorphous silicon dioxide. Silane can react with water to form corrosive silicic acid. The primary health hazard associated with Silane is the potential for severe thermal burns from contact with flames resulting from the spontaneous ignition of this gas. Depending on the severity of the burns, such exposures can be fatal. Flame or high temperature impinging on a localized area of the cylinder of this product can cause the cylinder to burst without activating the cylinder’s relief devices. If Silane is released at high pressure or high flow velocity, a delayed detonation may occur. Silane releases which have not spontaneously ignited must be considered extremely dangerous and should not be approached. Emergency responders must have personal protective equipment and fire protection appropriate for the situation to which they are responding.

Precautionary statements
P202 Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. P210 Keep away from heat, open flames, sparks, hot surfaces – No Smoking P222 Do not allow contact with air P261 Avoid breathing gas. P271+P403 Use and store only outdoors or in a well-ventilated place. P377 Leaking gas fire: Do not extinguish, unless leak can be stopped safely P381 CGA-PG05 CGA-PG06 CGA-PG10 CGA-PG17 Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so Use a back flow preventive device in the piping Close valve after each use and when empty. Use only with equipment rated for cylinder pressure Use only with equipment purged with inert gas or evacuated prior to discharge from cylinder. CGA-PG12 CGA-PG18 CGA-PG02 Do not open valve until connected to equipment prepared for use When returning cylinder, install leak tight valve outlet cap or plug Protect from sunlight when ambient temperature exceeds 52°C (125°F).
