Hazards

Routes of entry: inhalation: yes skin: no ingestion: no
reports of carcinogenicity: ntp: no iarc: no osha: no
health hazards acute and chronic: argon is an asphyxiant. Lack of oxygen
can cause death.

effects of overexposure: asphyxiant. Moderate concentrations may cause
headache, drowsiness, dizziness, excitation, excess salivation,
vomiting, and unconsciousness.

First Aid

First aid: inhalation: remove to fresh air. Give cpr if not breathing.

give supplemental oxygen if breathing is difficult. Call a
physician. If contacted with skin or eyes flush with water.

strike arc or ground
hazardous decomposition products: ozone & nitrogen oxides may be formed
by radiation from arc.Other decomps originate from
volitization,reaction,oxidation

Proper Disposal

Waste disposal methods: slowly release into atmosphere.Discard any
productresidue, disposable container or liner in an environmentally
acceptablee manner in full compliance with federal, state and

Hazards

Routes of entry: inhalation: yes skin: yes ingestion: no
reports of carcinogenicity: ntp: no iarc: no osha: no
health hazards acute and chronic: argon is odorless and nontoxic, but
may produce suffocation by diluting the concentration of oxygen
in air below levels necessary to support life. Extensivetissue
damage or burns can result from e xposure to liquid argon or cold
argonvapors.

effects of overexposure: exposure to oxygen-deficient atmospheres may
produce dizziness, nausea, vomitingloss of consciousness, and
death. Death may result from errors in judgment, con-fusion, or
loss of consciousness which p revents self-rescue. At low
oxygenconcentrations unconsciousness and death may occur in seconds
without warning.

First Aid

First aid: persons suffering from lack of oxygen should be moved to
areas with normal atmoscpr and supplemental oxygen should be given
if victim is not breathing. If cryo-genic liquid or cold boil-off
gas contac ts a worker's skin or eyes,frozen tissueshould be
flooded or soaked with tepid water, not hot. Cryogenic burns which
re-sult in blistering or deeper tissue freezing should be seen
promptly by a physic
