Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Clear, colorless, liquid with an ethereal and faint sweet odor. Non-flammable material. Overexposure may cause dizziness and loss of concentration. At higher levels, CNS depression and cardiac arrhythmia may result from the exposure. Vapors displace air and can cause asphyxiation in confined spaces. At high temperatures (>250C), decomposition products may include Hydrochloric Acid (HCl), Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) and carbonyl halides.
Potential health effects
Trichlorotrifluoroethane INHALATION: Overexposure to vapor may cause dizziness, loss of concentration and irritation. With high exposure levels, effects can include central nervous system (CNS) depression (intoxication) and cardiac arrhythmia. Product vapors displace air and can cause suffocation especially in a confined space. SKIN: Repeated and/or prolonged exposure may cause irritation of the skin (defatting of the skin). EYE: Irritant. Liquid will irritate and may cause conjunctivitis. INGESTION: Discomfort due to volatility would be expected. Some of the inhalation effects could be expected. 3.
