unconsciousness and death.

medical cond aggravated by exposure: none known.

First Aid

First aid: prompt medical attention is mandatory in all cases of
overexposure to acetylene. Rescue personnel should be equipped

Hazards

Routes of entry: inhalation: yes skin: yes ingestion: yes
reports of carcinogenicity: ntp: no iarc: no osha: no
health hazards acute and chronic: acetylene is a simple
asphyxiant,irritant, and anesthetic. About 100mg per litermay be
tolerated for 0.5-1.0 hour. There is no experimental evidence of
chronic harmful effects.

explanation of carcinogenicity: acetylene is classified as a simple
asphyxiant and has no threshold limit value.

effects of overexposure: headaches,dizziness,shortness of breath, & loss
of consciousness may occur if the gas is present in quantities
sufficient to dilute the oxygen concentration. Symptoms of anoxia
occur only when the g as concentrations are within the flammblrange
and the mixture has not ignited.

First Aid

First aid: first degree & minor second degree thermal burns from fires
should be immersed in cool water for 30mins. Major second/third
degree burns should be covered in the cleanest material available.

persons suffering from lack of oxygen should bemoved to normal
atmosphere. Assisted respiration & supplemental oxygen should
begiven if the victim is not breathing. Seek immediate aid of a
physician.

First Aid

First aid: prompt medical attention is mandatory in all cases of
overexposure to acetylene. Rescue personnel should be equipped with
self-contained breathing apparatus and be cognizant of extreme fire
and explos ion hazard. Inhalation: conscious persons should be
assisted to an uncontaminated area and inhale fresh air. Quick
removal from the contaminated area is most important. Unconscious
persons should be m oved to an uncontaminated area, given
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and supplemental oxygen. Medical
assistance should be sought immediately.

Reactivity

Stability indicator/materials to avoid: yes
oxygen and other oxidizers including all of the halogens and halogen
compounds. Forms explosive acetylide compounds with copper, mecury,
silver, brasses containing more than 66% copper and brazing
materials containing silve

cylinder) to exceed 30 psia. Cylinders should not be exposed to
sudden shock or sources of heat.

hazardous decomposition products: carbon and hydrogen.

conditions to avoid polymerization: will not occur

Proper Disposal

Waste disposal methods: do not attempt to dispose of waste or unused
quantities. Return in the shipping container properly labeled, with
any valve outlet plugs or caps secured and valve protection cap in
place to liquid air corporation for proper disposal. For emergency
disposal, contact the closest liquid air corporation location.
