SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Physical state Gas. Odor : Odorless. Emergency overview CAUTION! High pressure gas.Can cause rapid suffocation. May cause dizziness and drowsiness. Self-contained breathing apparatus may be required by rescue workers. Contains gas under pressure. In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst or explode. Simple asphyxiant. At very high concentrations, can displace the normal air and cause suffocation from lack of oxygen. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Do not enter storage areas and confined spaces unless adequately ventilated. Avoid breathing gas. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use.
Principle Routes of Exposure
Inhalation
Potential Acute Health Effects
Inhalation Asphyxiant. Effects are due to lack of oxygen. Moderate concentrations may cause headaches, drowsiness, dizziness, excitation, excess salivation, vomiting, and unconciousness. Lack of oxygen can kill. Ingestion As this product is a gas, refer to the inhalation section. Skin Contact with rapidly expanding gas may cause burns or frostbite. Eyes Contact with rapidly expanding gas may cause burns or frostbite.
