Hazards

Routes of entry: inhalation: yes skin: yes ingestion: yes
reports of carcinogenicity: ntp: no iarc: no osha: no
health hazards acute and chronic: argon is nontoxic but the liberation
of a large amount in a confined area could displace the amount of
oxygen in air necessary to support life.

effects of overexposure: may include any,all,or none of the
following: dizziness,tightness of forehead,tingling
tongue,fingertips or toes,weakened speech leading to inability to
utter sounds,rapid reduction in ability to perfo rm
movements,reduced consciousness of surroundings,loss of tactile
sensations,&heighted mental activity.

First Aid

First aid: prompt medical attn is mandatory in all cases of overexposure
to argon.Rescue personnel should be equipped w/self-contained
breathing apparatus.Conscious/unconscious persons should be moved
to unconta minated area.Unconscious person should be given
mout-to-mouth resuscitation & supplemental oxygen.Quick removal
from the contaminated area is most important.

consciousness,& death.Death may result from errors in
judgment,confusion,or loss of consciousness.At low oxygen
concentrations unconsciousness & death may occur in seconds w/out
warning.Extensive tissue damage or burns can result from exposure
to liq argon or cold argon vap

First Aid

First aid: persons suffering from lack of oxy should be moved to normal
atmosphere.Assistedrespiration & supplemental oxy should be given
if hte victim is not breathing.Ifcryogenic liq or col boil-off gas
contac ts a worker's skin or eyes,frozen tissues should be flooded
or soaked w/tepid wtr.Do not use hot wtr.Cryogenic burns which
blister or deeper tissue freezing should be seen promptly by
physician.
