Extremely flammable gas, risk of explosion. High pressure,may explode if heated.
2. Health hazards
EYE EFFECTS:
None anticipated as product is a gas at room temperature.
SKIN EFFECTS:
None anticipated as product is a gas at room temperature.
INGESTION EFFECTS:
Ingestion is unlikely.
INHALATION EFFECTS:
Product is relatively nontoxic. Simple hydrocarbons can irritate the eyes, mucous membranes
and respiratory system at high concentrations.
Inhalation of high concentrations may cause dizziness, disorientation, in coordination,
narcosis, or nausea or narcotic.
This product may displace oxygen if released in a confined space. Maintain oxygen levels
above 19.5% at sea level to prevent asphyxiation. Effects of oxygen deficiency resulting from
simple asphyxiate may include: rapid breathing, diminished mental alertness, impaired
muscular coordination, faulty judgment, depression of all sensations, emotional instability,
and fatigue. As asphyxiation progresses, nausea, vomiting, prostration, and loss of
consciousness may result, eventually leading to convulsions, coma, and death. Oxygen
deficiency during pregnancy has produced development abnormalities in humans and
experimental animals.
