INHALATION: If adverse effects occur, remove to uncontaminated area. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Get immediate medical attention. SKIN CONTACT: Wash skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention, if needed. Thoroughly clean and dry contaminated clothing and shoes before reuse. EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Then get immediate medical attention. INGESTION: If a large amount is swallowed, get medical attention. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: For inhalation, consider oxygen

Part 5: Fire Fighting Measures

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Severe explosion hazard. Vapor/air mixtures are explosive. Containers may rupture or explode if exposed to heat. Vapors or gases may ignite at distant ignition sources and flash back. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: carbon dioxide, regular dry chemical Large fires: Use regular foam or flood with fine water spray. FIRE FIGHTING: Move container from fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers with water spray until well after the fire is out. Stay away from the ends of tanks. For fires in cargo or storage area: If this is impossible then take the following precautions: Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Let the fire burn. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks due to fire. For tank, rail car or tank truck: Let burn unless leak can be stopped immediately. For smaller tanks or cylinders, extinguish and isolate from other flammables. Evacuation radius: 800 meters (1/2 mile). Do not attempt to extinguish fire unless flow of material can be stopped first. Flood with fine water spray. Cool containers with water. Apply water from a protected location or from a safe distance. Avoid inhalation of material or combustion by-products. Stay upwind and keep out of low areas. Stop flow of gas. LOWER FLAMMABLE LIMIT: 12.0-12.5% UPPER FLAMMABLE LIMIT: 74% AUTOIGNITION: 1128-1202 F (609-650 C)

HEALTH EFFECTS: INHALATION: ACUTE EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: Carbon monoxide is not detectable by odor and headache should be taken as a warning that a dangerous concentration is being inhaled. In sudden exposures to high concentrations, weakness and dizziness may be the only symptoms preceding collapse. The amount of carboxyhemoglobin formed in the blood is dependent on concentration and duration of exposure, ambient temperature, physical exertion, health, and individual metabolism. Symptoms are usually not noticeable until the carboxyhemoglobin level reaches 10%. At 10-40%, symptoms may include increasingly severe headache, dyspnea on exertion, decreased manual dexterity, impaired judgement and memory, irritability, emotional instability, dizziness, fatigue, drowsiness, confusion, nausea, vomiting, palpitations, and impaired vision and hearing. With continuing exposure, there is a progressive worsening of all symptoms. At 40-60%, anginal pain, incoordination, hallucinations, lethargy, syncope and collapse, and increased respiration and pulse may occur. At 60-80% there may be decreased respiration, blood pressure and pulse, and deepening coma with intermittent convulsions and incontinence of urine and feces. Rarely, there may be a pink or red skin discoloration, but cyanosis or pallor is more common. Other reported signs and symptoms include increased temperature, dilated pupils, perspiration, muscle spasms, hyperreflexia, aching limbs, and retinal hemorrhage or venous engorgement. Above 70-80%, rapid death from respiratory or cardiac arrest usually occurs. Death may also be caused by myocardial or cerebral infarction. Cerebral edema may also occur. In non-fatal cases or when death is not immediate, primary or secondary effects of tissue hypoxia and some atypical reactions may develop. There may be myocarditis, pulmonary edema, bronchopneumonia, pancreatitis, hepatomegaly, liver and kidney damage, albuminuria, glycosuria, and oliguria. Hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenic purpura, polycythemia and leukocytosis have been reported. Rhabdomyolysis with myoglobinuria and acute renal failure are possible, especially with pressure injury. Erythema, edema and blisters may develop, especially over pressure areas. Eye effects may include retrobulbar neuritis with neuroretinal edema and partial or complete, temporary or permanent blindness. Temporary or permanent hearing loss may also occur. Complete recovery is the usual course. However, signs and symptoms of nerve or brain injury with neuropathies and various motor and mental defects, some of which resemble multiple sclerosis or parkinsonism, may develop several days to weeks after apparent recovery, especially from prolonged hypoxic coma. The onset may be sudden with numerous possible effects, including dementia, deterioration of neurological status and sometimes slowly resolving or permanent disability or death. A study of 63 patients 3 years after carbon monoxide poisoning indicated that 13% showed gross neuropsychiatric damage; 33% showed deterioration of personality; and 43% reported memory impairment. Carbon monoxide readily crosses the placental barrier. Acute non-lethal intoxication may result in miscarriage or permanent neurologic sequelae such, as cerebral palsy, in the newborn. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: Although carbon monoxide is not a cumulative poison, chronic exposure to low to moderate levels may result in repeated bouts of oxygen deprivation and resultant effects including cardiovascular or central nervous system damage. Reported signs and symptoms include polycythemia, lassitude, malaise, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, ataxia, syncope, glycosuria, weakness of the limbs, joint and neuromuscular pain, muscle spasm, loss of sensation in the fingers, positive Romberg's sign, auditory and visual disturbances and impaired vigilance. Irritability, personality changes, impaired memory and difficulty concentrating are also possible. The development of atherosclerosis may be facilitated. The development of congestive heart failure may be indicated by dyspnea, anginal pain and cardiac irregularities. Relatively long and severe exposure may cause cerebral congestion and edema resulting in long-lasting mental or nervous damage. During pregnancy, prolonged exposure to low levels, as in smoking, has been associated with smaller babies and increased neonatal mortalities. Rats exposed prenatally to low levels had offspring that exhibited signs of functional deficit in the central nervous system; minor skeletal anomalies were noted in mice. Other reproductive effects have been reported in animals. SKIN CONTACT: ACUTE EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: No adverse effects have been reported from the gas. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: No data available. EYE CONTACT: ACUTE EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: No adverse effects have been reported from the gas. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: No data available. INGESTION: ACUTE EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: Ingestion of a gas is unlikely. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: CARBON MONOXIDE: No data available
