Part 3: Hazards Identifications

NFPA RATINGS (SCALE 0-4): HEALTH=1 FIRE=0 REACTIVITY=0 EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Odorless, tasteless, colorless, inert gas. MAJOR HEALTH HAZARDS: difficulty breathing PHYSICAL HAZARDS: Containers may rupture or explode if exposed to heat. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: INHALATION: SHORT TERM EXPOSURE: nausea, vomiting, symptoms of drunkenness, tingling sensation, suffocation, convulsions, coma LONG TERM EXPOSURE: no information on significant adverse effects SKIN CONTACT: SHORT TERM EXPOSURE: no information on significant adverse effects LONG TERM EXPOSURE: no information on significant adverse effects EYE CONTACT: SHORT TERM EXPOSURE: irritation LONG TERM EXPOSURE: no information on significant adverse effects INGESTION: SHORT TERM EXPOSURE: ingestion of a gas is unlikely LONG TERM EXPOSURE: no information is available CARCINOGEN STATUS: OSHA: No NTP: No IARC: No

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 inhalation, consider oxygen.

Part 5: Fire Fighting Measures

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Negligible fire hazard. Containers may rupture or explode if exposed to heat. 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. 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, evacuation radius: 800 meters (1/2 mile).

Part 6: Accidental Release Measures

OCCUPATIONAL RELEASE: Stop leak if possible without personal risk. Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind and keep out of low areas.

Part 7: Handling and Storage

Storage: store and handle in accordance with all current regulations and standards. Keep separated from incompatible substances.

Part 8: Exposure Controls, Personal Protection

EXPOSURE LIMITS: NITROGEN, COMPRESSED GAS: No occupational exposure limits established. VENTILATION: 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.

Part 10: Stability and Reactivity

REACTIVITY: Stable at normal temperatures and pressure. CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Protect from physical damage and heat. Containers may rupture or explode if exposed to heat. INCOMPATIBILITIES: metals, oxidizing materials NITROGEN: LITHIUM: May ignite in the gas. MAGNESIUM: Violent reaction with the liquid on ignition. NEODYMIUM: Vigorous reaction. OZONE: Mixtures of the gases may be explosive. TITANIUM: Will burn in nitrogen atmosphere. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION: Thermal decomposition products: oxides of nitrogen POLYMERIZATION: Will not polymerize.

Part 11: Toxicological Information

HEALTH EFFECTS: INHALATION: NITROGEN: Nitrogen inhaled under increased atmospheric pressure, (>1.5 atmospheres), may dissolve in the fat-containing brain cells, and act as an anesthetic, causing narcosis. Persons who have been exposed to increased pressure for a time and who are suddenly released from the pressure may develop decompression sickness. Repeated exposure, without complete decompression, may result in decompression sickness. 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 judgment, 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: NITROGEN: No adverse effect have been reported from the gas. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: NITROGEN: No adverse effects have been reported. EYE CONTACT: ACUTE EXPOSURE: NITROGEN: May cause irritation if sprayed directly into the eyes. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: NITROGEN: No adverse effects have been reported. INGESTION: ACUTE EXPOSURE: NITROGEN: Ingestion of a gas is unlikely. CHRONIC EXPOSURE: NITROGEN: No data available.
