POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
Ingestion: Extremely unlikely to occur in use.
Eye contact: Liquid splashes or spray may cause freeze burns.
Skin contact: Liquid splashes or spray may cause freeze burns.
Skin absorption: This product will probably not be absorbed through human skin.
Inhalation: Exposure to high vapor concentrations can induce anesthetic effects progressing
from dizziness, weakness, nausea, to unconsciousness. Very high exposures can cause
abnormal heart rhythm, which is potentially fatal. It can act as an asphyxiant by limiting available
oxygen.
Other effects of overexposure: None expected.

FIRST AID MEASURES
Skin: Immediately wash with plenty of warm water (do not rub). Thaw affected area with water.
Remove contaminated clothing. Caution: clothing may adhere to the skin in case of freeze burns.
If symptoms (irritation or blistering) develop, get medical attention.
Eyes: Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and
continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids open during flushing. Have eyes
examined and treated by medical personnel.
Ingestion: Highly unlikely, but should this occur, freeze burns will result. Do not induce vomiting
unless instructed to do so by a physician.
Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. Keep warm and at rest. If breathing is labored, give oxygen.
If only breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration with a pocket mask equipped with a one-
way valve to prevent exposure to product or body fluids. If breathing has stopped AND there is
no pulse, give cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Get immediate medical attention.
Note to physician: Symptomatic and supportive therapy, as indicated. Administration of
epinephrine or similar sympathomimetic drugs should be with special caution and only in
situations of emergency life support as cardiac arrhythmias may result.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: Does not flash.
Flammable Limits (Lower): Not applicable.
Flammable Limits (Upper): Not applicable.
Auto Ignition Temperature: > 743°C (> 1369°F)
Hazardous Reactions: Reacts with finely divided metals such as aluminum, zinc,
magnesium, and alloys containing more than 2% magnesium. Can react violently if in
contact with alkali metals and alkaline earth metals such as sodium, potassium, or barium.
During a fire the product can form toxic and corrosive gases such as hydrogen fluoride.
Fire and Explosion Hazards: Compressed liquefied gas. Containers may burst under
intense heat. Ruptured cylinders may rocket or fragment. Heavy vapor may suffocate.
