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

Hazards

Reports of carcinogenicity: ntp: no iarc: no osha: no
health hazards acute and chronic: argon is nontoxic, but may cause
suffocation by displacing the oxygen in the air. Exposure to

should be recognitzed that collapse and asphyxiation may occur
without experiencing symptoms.

effects of overexposure: argon is a simple asphyxiant.

First Aid

First aid: persons suffering from lack of oxygen should be moved into
fresh air. If victim is not breathing, administer artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Obtain
prompt medical attention. Self-contained breathing apparatus may
