Hazards

Ld50 lc50 mixture: not specified by the manufacturer.

reports of carcinogenicity: ntp: no iarc: no osha: no
health hazards acute and chronic: inthalation: both argon and methane
are simple asphyxiants. Oxygen levels should be maintained at
greater than 19.5 percent at normal atmospheric pressure which is
equivalent to a partial pressure of 135 mm hg. Skin: contact with
liquid product may cause tissue freezing. Eyes: contact with liquid
product may cause tissue freezing.

explanation of carcinogenicity: no data provided by manufacturer.

effects of overexposure: inhalation: high concentrations of p-5 gas
mixture so as to exclude an adequate supply of oxygen to the lungs
causes dizziness, deeper breathing due to air hunger, possible
nausea and eventual unconsc iousness. P-5 gas mixture is relatively
inactive biologically and essentially nontoxic: therefore, the
major hazard is the exclusion of an adequate supply of oxygen to
the lungs.

medical cond aggravated by exposure: none specified by manufacturer.

First Aid

First aid: skin: flush with lukewarm water after removing clothes. Do not
use hot water. A physician should see the patient promptly if the
cryogenic "burn" has resulted in blistering or deep tissue
freezing. Eye s: never introduce ointment or oil into the the eyes
without medical advice. In case of freezing or cryogenic "burn"
caused by rapidly evaporating liquid. Do not wash the eyes with hot
or even tepid w ater! Remove victim from the source of
contamination. Open eyelids wide & allow liquid to evaporate. If
pain is persent, refer the victim to an opthalmologist. Remove to
fresh air. If breathing stoppe r, give artificial respiration &
oxygen

Chemical Properties

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
