Part 4: First Aid
Measures
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 exposed skin with
soap and water. EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes with plenty of water. INGESTION: If a
large amount is swallowed, get medical attention. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: For

Part 5: Fire
Fighting Measures
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Severe
fire hazard. Severe explosion hazard. Vapor/air mixtures are explosive.
Containers may rupture or explode if exposed to heat. Electrostatic discharges
may be generated by flow or agitation resulting in ignition or explosion.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: carbon dioxide, regular dry chemical Large fires: 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: Cool
containers with water from unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles until well
after fire is out. 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: Stop
leak if possible without personal risk. 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 spray until well after the fire is out.
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.
Evacuate if fire gets out of control or containers are directly exposed to fire.
Evacuation radius: 500 meters (1/3 mile). Consider downwind evacuation if
material is leaking. Stop flow of gas. LOWER FLAMMABLE LIMIT: 4.0% UPPER
FLAMMABLE LIMIT: 75% AUTOIGNITION: 932 F (500 C)
Part 6: Accidental
Release Measures
OCCUPATIONAL RELEASE: Avoid heat,
flames, sparks and other sources of ignition. Do not touch spilled material.
Stop leak if possible without personal risk. Reduce vapors with water spray.
Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Remove sources
of ignition. Ventilate closed spaces before entering.
Part 7: Handling

"H"-Hazardous Materials. National Fire Protection Association publication #55,
"Standard for the Storage, Use and Handling of Compressed and Liquified Gases in
Portable Cylinders". Compressed Gas Association publication P-1, "Safe Handling
of Compressed Gases in Containers". Store and handle in accordance with current
regulations and standards: OSHA 29 CFR 1910.101. Store in a cool, dry place.
Ventilation required. Store outside or in a detached building
Part 8: Exposure
Controls, Personal Protection
EXPOSURE LIMITS: HYDROGEN: ACGIH
(simple asphyxiant) VENTILATION: Ventilation equipment should be
explosion-resistant if explosive concentrations of material are present. Provide
local exhaust ventilation system. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure
limits. EYE PROTECTION: Eye protection not required, but recommended. CLOTHING:
Protective clothing is not required. GLOVES: Protective gloves are not required.
RESPIRATOR: Under conditions of frequent use or heavy exposure, respiratory
protection may be needed. Respiratory protection is ranked in order from minimum
to maximum. Consider warning properties before use. For Unknown Concentrations
or Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health - Any supplied-air respirator with
full facepiece and operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode
in combination with a separate escape supply. Any self-contained breathing
apparatus with a full facepiece

Toxicological Information
HEALTH EFFECTS: INHALATION:
HYDROGEN: See information on simple asphyxiants. ACUTE EXPOSURE: SIMPLE
ASPHYXIANTS: The symptoms of asphyxia depend on the rapidity with which the
oxygen deficiency develops and how long it continues. In sudden acute asphyxia,
unconsciousness may be immediate. With slow development there may be rapid
respiration and pulse, air hunger, dizziness, reduced awareness, tightness in
the head, tingling sensations, incoordination, faulty judgement, emotional
instability, and rapid fatigue. As the asphyxia progresses, nausea, vomiting,
collapse, unconsciousness, convulsions, deep coma and death are possible.
CHRONIC EXPOSURE: SIMPLE ASPHYXIANTS: No data available. SKIN CONTACT: ACUTE
EXPOSURE: HYDROGEN: No adverse effects have been reported from the gas. Due to
rapid evaporation, the cryogenic liquid may cause frostbite with redness,
tingling and pain or numbness. In more severe cases, the skin may become hard
and white and develop blisters. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: HYDROGEN: No data available.
EYE CONTACT: ACUTE EXPOSURE: HYDROGEN: No adverse effects have been reported
from the gas. Due to rapid evaporation, the cryogenic liquid may cause frostbite
with redness, pain and blurred vision. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: HYDROGEN: No data
available. INGESTION: ACUTE EXPOSURE: HYDROGEN: Ingestion of a gas is unlikely.
If cryogenic liquid is swallowed, frostbite damage to the lips, mouth and mucous
membranes may occur. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: HYDROGEN: No data available
