| | 2. COMPOSITION/ INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS: |
| | | Description | CAS Number | EINECS Number | | Carbon Dioxide | 124-38-9 | |
|
| | |
| | 3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION: |
| | | Hazard description | Not applicable. | | Information concerning particular hazard for human and environment | No applicable. |
|
| | |
| | 4. FIRST-AID MEASURES: |
| | | After inhalation | Conscious person should be assisted to an uncontaminated area and inhale fresh air. Quick removal the contaminated area is most important. Unconscious person should be moved to an uncontaminated area, given assisted resuscitation and supplemented oxygen. Medical assistance should be sought immediately. | | After skin contact | Frosbite: Flush affected areas with luke warm water. Do not use hot water. A physician should see the patient immediately, if the cryogenic ``burn'' has resulted in blistering of the dermal surface or deep tissue freezing. | | After eye contact | In the event of liquid or cold gas exposure, flush contaminated eye(s) with copious quantities of water. Part eyelids to assure complete flushing. | | Prompt Medical Attention is mandatory in all cases of over exposure to carbon dioxide liquefied. Rescue personnel should be equipped with self-contained breathing apparatus. |
|
| | |
| | 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES: |
| | | Suitable extinguishing agents | Carbon Dioxide is a non-flammable product. |
|
| | |
| | 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES: |
| | | Person-related safety precautions | Use respiratory protective device. Avoid contact with liquid or solid shut off leaks, if without risk. Allow to evaporate slowly. | | Measures for cleaning/collecting | Allow the material to evaporate under control. |
|
| | |
| | 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE: |
| | | Handling | | | Information for safe handling | Avoid contact. Use personal protective equipment & self-contained breathing apparatus. | | Storage | Carbon Di-oxide, liquefied, is stored in insulated vessels, having mechanical refrigeration coils within the vapour space in order to maintain the pressure in the vessel or the temperature of the liquid in the vessel. |
|
| | |
| | 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PROTECTION: |
| | | Ingredients with limit values that require monitoring at the work place: Not applicable. | | 124 - 38 - 9 Carbon Dioxide | | OES | STEL 30,000 molar ppm.
: TWA 5,000 molar ppm. Chronic, harmful effects are not known from repeated inhalation of low (3-5 molar %) concentrations. | | Personal protective equipment | Proper protective device. | | General protective and hygienic measures | The usual precautionary measures are to be followed when handling chemicals. | | Respiratory protection | Self-contained breathing apparatus with full-face piece, operated in positive pressure mode. | | Protection of hands | Type of gloves: Insulated. | | Eye protection | Safety goggles / glasses. |
|
| | |
