Simple asphyxiant
Contents under pressure
Keep at temperatures below 52°C / 125°F
OSHA Regulatory Status This material is considered hazardous by the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR
1910.1200).
Acute Toxicity
Inhalation Simple asphyxiant. May cause suffocation by displacing the oxygen in the air. Exposure to oxygen-
deficient atmosphere (<19.5%) may cause dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, excess salivation,
diminished mental alertness, loss of consciousness and death. Exposure to atmospheres containing 8-
10% or less oxygen will bring about unconsciousness without warning and so quickly that the
individuals cannot help or protect themselves. Lack of sufficient oxygen may cause serious injury or
death.
Eyes This product is a gas at room temperature. Contact with liquid may cause frostbite.
Skin This product is a gas at room temperature. Contact with liquid may cause frostbite.
3. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
Eye Contact None required for gas. If frostbite is suspected, flush eyes with cool water for 15 minutes and obtain
immediate medical attention.
Skin Contact None required for gas. For dermal contact or suspected frostbite, remove contaminated clothing and
flush affected areas with lukewarm water. DO NOT USE HOT WATER. A physican should see the patient
promptly if contact with the product has resulted in blistering of the dermal surface or in deep tissue
freezing.
Inhalation PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION IS MANDATORY IN ALL CASES OF INHALATION OVEREXPOSURE. RESCUE
PERSONNEL SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. Conscious inhalation
victims should be assisted to an uncontaminated area and inhale fresh air. If breathing is difficult,
administer oxygen. Unconscious persons should be moved to an uncontaminated area and, as
necessary, given artificial resuscitation and supplemental oxygen. Treatment should be symptomatic
and supportive.
Ingestion None under normal use. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding
environment.
Explosion Data
Specific Hazards Arising from the Cylinders may rupture under extreme heat. Continue to cool fire exposed cylinders until flames are
Chemical extinguished. Damaged cylinders should be handled only by specialists.
Protective Equipment and As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or
Precautions for Firefighters equivalent) and full protective gear.
Personal Precautions Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Use personal protective equipment.
Monitor oxygen level.
Environmental Precautions Prevent spreading of vapors through sewers, ventilation systems and confined areas.
Methods for Containment Stop the flow of gas or remove cylinder to outdoor location if this can be done without risk. If leak is in
container or container valve, contact the appropriate emergency telephone number in Section 1 or call
your closest Linde location.
Handling Use only in ventilated areas. Never attempt to lift a cylinder by its valve protection cap. Protect
cylinders from physical damage; do not drag, roll, slide or drop. When moving cylinders, even for short
distance, use a cart designed to transport cylinders. Use equipment rated for cylinder pressure. Use
backflow preventive device in piping. Never insert an object (e.g. wrench, screwdriver, pry bar,etc.)
into valve cap openings. Doing so may damage valve, causing leak to occur.
Use an adjustable strap wrench to remove over-tight or rusted caps. Close valve after each use and
when empty. If user experiences any difficulty operating cylinder valve discontinue use and contact
supplier.
Never put cylinders into trunks of cars or unventilated areas of passenger vehicles. Never attempt to
refill a compressed gas cylinder without the owner's written consent. Never strike an arc on a

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------
Inhalation:
A slight irritant to the mucous membranes. Toxic effects exerted upon nervous system, particularly the
optic nerve. Once absorbed into the body, it is very slowly eliminated. Symptoms of overexposure may
include headache, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, blindness, coma, and death. A person may
get better but then worse again up to 30 hours later.
Ingestion:
Toxic. Symptoms parallel inhalation. Can intoxicate and cause blindness. Usual fatal dose: 100-125
milliliters.
Skin Contact:
Methyl alcohol is a defatting agent and may cause skin to become dry and cracked. Skin absorption can
occur; symptoms may parallel inhalation exposure.
Eye Contact:
Irritant. Continued exposure may cause eye lesions.
Chronic Exposure:
Marked impairment of vision has been reported. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause skin
irritation.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems or impaired liver or kidney function may be
more susceptible to the effects of the substance.
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get
medical attention immediately.
Ingestion:
Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids
occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
Flash point: 12C (54F) CC
Autoignition temperature: 464C (867F)
Flammable limits in air % by volume:
lel: 6.0; uel: 36
Flammable Liquid and Vapor!
Explosion:
Above flash point, vapor-air mixtures are explosive within flammable limits noted above. Moderate
explosion hazard and dangerous fire hazard when exposed to heat, sparks or flames. Sensitive to static
discharge.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Use alcohol foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. (Water may be ineffective.)
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing
apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. Use
water spray to blanket fire, cool fire exposed containers, and to flush non-ignited spills or vapors away
from fire. Vapors can flow along surfaces to distant ignition source and flash back.
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Remove all sources of ignition. Wear appropriate personal protective
equipment as specified in Section 8. Isolate hazard area. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel
from entering. Contain and recover liquid when possible. Use non-sparking tools and equipment. Collect
liquid in an appropriate container or absorb with an inert material (e. g., vermiculite, dry sand, earth), and
place in a chemical waste container. Do not use combustible materials, such as saw dust. Do not flush to
sewer! If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse the vapors, to protect personnel
attempting to stop leak, and to flush spills away from exposures. US Regulations (CERCLA) require
reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in excess of reportable quantities. The toll free number
for the US Coast Guard National Response Center is (800) 424-8802.
Protect against physical damage. Store in a cool, dry well-ventilated location, away from any area where
the fire hazard may be acute. Outside or detached storage is preferred. Separate from incompatibles.
Containers should be bonded and grounded for transfers to avoid static sparks. Storage and use areas
should be No Smoking areas. Use non-sparking type tools and equipment, including explosion proof
ventilation. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues
(vapors, liquid); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product. Do Not attempt to clean
empty containers since residue is difficult to remove. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill,
grind or expose such containers to heat, sparks, flame, static electricity or other sources of ignition: they
may explode and cause injury or death.

General advice
Pay attention to self-protection.
Remove victims from hazardous area. Immediately remove soiled or soaked clothing and remove it to a
safe distance. Keep victim warm, in a stabilized position and covered.
Do not leave victims unattended.
If the casualty is unconscious: Place the victim in the recovery position.
Inhalation
Inhalation is possible if aerosols, mists, dusts, or smoke form.
Move victims into fresh air.
With labored breathing: Provide with oxygen. Consult a doctor.
If the casualty is not breathing: Perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, notify emergency physician
immediately.
Skin contact
Wash off affected area immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
With liposoluble substances, products, or preparations, continue decontamination with polyethylene
glycol 400 after initial rinsing with water and then wash with water and soap.
If symptoms persist, consult a physician for treatment.
Eye contact
With eye held open, thoroughly rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes.
Consult an ophthalmologist immediately if the symptoms persist.
When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately (key words: burns in
eye).
Ingestion
Rinse out mouth.
Immediately give large quantities of water to drink.
Consult a physician immediately.
When dealing with caustic substances, notify emergency physician immediately.
Notes to physician
In case of substances with high water solubility, inhalation of vapors, aerosols, mists, and smoke from
caustic substances, products, and preparations, as well as caustic gases, results in irritations up to
formation of necrosis in the upper respiratory tract.
The initial focus is on the local action: signs of irritation of the respiratory tract such as coughing,
burning behind the sternum, tears, burning in the eyes or nose.
There is a fundamental risk of acute toxic pulmonary edema!
In case of substances with low water solubility, only slight local irritations may appear at first, but after
several hours of latency without symptoms, may develop into increasingly labored breathing and
cyanosis as a result of a delayed pulmonary edema.
There is a danger of underestimating the severity of the intoxication!
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Exposure Controls : The level of protection and types of controls necessary will vary
depending upon potential exposure conditions. Select controls
based on a risk assessment of local circumstances.
Appropriate measures include: Use sealed systems as far as
possible. Adequate explosion-proof ventilation to control
airborne concentrations below the exposure guidelines/limits.
Local exhaust ventilation is recommended. Firewater monitors
and deluge systems are recommended. Eye washes and
showers for emergency use.
Personal Protective : Personal protective equipment (PPE) should meet
Equipment recommended national standards. Check with PPE suppliers.
Respiratory Protection : If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations
to a level which is adequate to protect worker health, select
respiratory protection equipment suitable for the specific
conditions of use and meeting relevant legislation. Check with
respiratory protective equipment suppliers. Where air-filtering
respirators are unsuitable (e.g., airborne concentrations are
high, risk of oxygen deficiency, confined space) use
appropriate positive pressure breathing apparatus. Where air-
filtering respirators are suitable, select an appropriate
combination of mask and filter. Select a filter suitable for
organic gases and vapours [boiling point >65 °C (149 °F)].
Where respiratory protective equipment is required, use a full-
face mask. Respirator selection, use and maintenance should
be in accordance with the requirements of the OSHA
Respiratory Protection Standard, 29 CFR 1920.134.
Hand Protection : Where hand contact with the product may occur the use of
gloves approved to relevant standards (e.g. Europe: EN374,
US: F739, AS/NZS:2161) made from the following materials
may provide suitable chemical protection: Longer term
protection: Viton. Incidental contact/Splash protection: Nitrile
rubber. Suitability and durability of a glove is dependent on
usage, e.g. frequency and duration of contact, chemical
resistance of glove material, glove thickness, dexterity. Always
seek advice from glove suppliers. Contaminated gloves should
be replaced.
Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.
Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves,
hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a
non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended.
Eye Protection : Chemical splash goggles (chemical monogoggles).
Protective Clothing : Chemical resistant gloves/gauntlets, boots, and apron. Where
risk of splashing or in spillage clean up, use chemical resistant
one-piece overall with integral hood.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASH POINT, (Closed Cup): -11°C (12°F)
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: 498°C (928°F)
FLAMMABLE LIMITS (in air by volume, %):
Lower (LEL): 1.3%
Upper (UEL): 7.1%
FIRE EXTINGUISHING MATERIALS:
Water Spray: YES (for cooling only) Carbon Dioxide: YES
Foam: YES Dry Chemical: YES
Halon: YES Other: Any "B" Class.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Benzene is a Class IB flammable liquid and presents a serious fire
hazard to firefighters. Due to the low flash point, vapors can form explosive mixtures with air, at room temperature.
When involved in a fire, this material may decompose and produce toxic gases (i.e., carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide, irritating aldehydes and ketones). The vapors of Benzene are heavier than air and may spread long
distances; distant ignition and flash-back are possible. Benzene can float on water; therefore, water contaminated
with this product can spread the flammable liquid and can spread fire. Containers of Benzene, when involved in fire,
may rupture or burst in the heat of the fire.
Explosion Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: Not sensitive.
Explosion Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Benzene can accumulate static charge by flow or agitation; vapors can be
ignited by static discharge.
SPECIAL FIRE-FIGHTING PROCEDURES: In the event of fire, cool containers of this product with water to prevent
failure. Use a water spray or fog to reduce or direct vapors. Water may not be effective in actually extinguishing a
fire involving Benzene, due to its low flash point. Stop the leak or discharge, if possible. For small releases, if it is
not possible to stop the leak, and it does not endanger personnel, let the fire burn itself out. Incipient fire responders
should wear eye protection. Structural fire fighters must wear Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus and full protective
equipment, including chemically resistant clothing. Large fires should be fought from a distance with an unmanned
hose holder or monitor nozzles. If this product is involved in a fire, fire run-off water should be contained to prevent
possible environmental damage. If necessary, decontaminate fire-response equipment with soap and water
solution.
