If adverse effects occur, remove to uncontaminated area. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Get immediate medical attention.
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.
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Then get immediate medical attention.
If a large amount is swallowed, get medical attention.
See Section 9 for Flammability Properties
Negligible fire hazard. Containers may rupture or explode if exposed to heat.
Use extinguishing agents appropriate for surrounding fire. Large fires: Use extinguishing agents appropriate for surrounding fire.
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).
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.
Store and handle in accordance with all current regulations and standards. Subject to storage regulations: U.S. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.101. Keep separated from incompatible substances.
Component Exposure Limits
Biological limit value
Provide local exhaust ventilation system. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure limits.
Eyes/Face Wear splash resistant safety goggles. Provide an emergency eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the immediate work area.
Protective clothing is not required.
Protective gloves are not required, but recommended.
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 a full facepiece that is operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode in combination with an auxiliary self-contained breathing apparatus operated in pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode. Any self-contained breathing apparatus that has a full facepiece and is operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.

Component Carcinogenicity
None of this product's components are listed by ACGIH, IARC, NTP, DFG or OSHA
XENON: May act as a simple asphyxiant by displacing oxygen At high concentrations the gas may cause narcosis and anesthesia Concentrations of simple asphyxiants above 33% may cause rapid respiration, dyspnea, reduced mental alertness and muscular coordination At higher levels, faulty judgement, depressed sensations, emotional instability and rapid fatigue may occur As the asphyxia progresses, there may be nausea, vomiting, prostration, unconsciousness, convulsions, deep coma, and death.
