Hazard statements
H220 - Extremely flammable gas H280 - Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated
Prevention
Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking • Take precautionary measures against static discharge
Response
Leaking gas fire: Do not extinguish, unless leak can be stopped safely • In case of leakage, eliminate all ignition sources
Storage
Protect from sunlight. Store in a well-ventilated place
Precautionary statements
Disposal • Dispose of contents/container in accordance with local, regional, national, and international regulations as applicable
Other hazards which do not result in classification
Physical-Chemical Properties Extremely flammable May form explosive mixtures with air In case of a leak, this gas travels along the ground since it is HEAVIER THAN AIR, and may ACCUMULATE IN LOW AREAS IF VENTILATION IS LACKING and may ignite at a distance. Accidental intense heating (in case of fire for example) of a container filled with this gas can lead to bursting and spreading of the product whose vapours may ignite causing deflagration or explosion
Potential health effects
In the gaseous phase: may have a slight anaesthetic effect and/or an asphyxiating effect as it reduces the oxygen content in the air. Contact with product may cause frostbite.
