SECTION 2 -HAZARD(S)IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
WARNING
♦
Flammable Gas.Contents underpressure,misuseby deliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may be
harmful or fatal. This product can be ignited under certain circumstances.
Avoid breathingvapor and mist. Vapor, mistandgas are heavierthanair.
Donot spray directly on humanavoid contact with eyes,skin andclothing.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
Keep away from heat and flame, and do not expose to above 49°C.
Potential Health Effects:
Inhalation of high concentrations of vapor isharmfuland maycause heart irregularities, unconsciousness, or death.
Intentional misuse or deliberate inhalation may cause death without warning. Vapor reduces oxygen available for
breathing and is heavier than air. Liquid contact can cause frostbite.
Human Health Effects:
Contactwith the liquid maycause frostbite.Overexposureby inhalationmay include nonspecific discomfort, such
as nausea, headache, or weakness; or temporary nervous system depression with anesthetic effects such as dizziness,
headache,confusion, incoordinationand lossof consciousness.Higherexposures (>20%) may cause temporary lung
irritation effects with cough,discomfort, difficulty breathing, or shortness of breath; or temporary alteration ofthe
heart's electrical activity with irregular pulse, palpitations, or inadequate circulation, abnormal kidney function as
detected by laboratory tests. Gross overexposure may be fatal. Individual with preexisting diseases ofthe central
nervous or cardiovascular system may have increased susceptibility to the toxicity ofexcessive exposures.

1,1-Difluoroethane 75-37-6 100
SECTION 4 -FIRST-AID MEASURES
Eyes:Flush immediately with water for at least 15 minutes .
Skin: Get medical attention if irritationdevelops.
Inhalation: Remove exposed person to fresh air if adverse effects are observed.
Get immediate medical attention if respiratory, or unconsciousness occurs.
Ingestion:Do not make person vomit unless directed todo so by medical personnel
Note to physician:Treat symptomatically.
SECTION 5-FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing media:Water spray,Water fog,Drychemical.
Flash Point -<-50 C (<-58 F)Flammable Limits LEL -3.9 Auto Ig.454C UEL -16.9
Fire and Explosion Hazards -Flammable.Cylinders are equipped with temperature and pressure reliefdevices but
still may rupture under fire conditions.Use water spray tocool cylinders and tanks.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures -Keep container cool with water spray.Ifgas exiting container ignites,stop flow
ofgas.Do not put out the fire unless leak can be stopped immediately.Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA)

SECTION 6-ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Procedures incase ofaccidental release,breakage orleakage.
Stop the source ofthe leak or release.Eliminate source ofignition.
SECTION 7 -HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
Keep out ofreach ofchildren.Misuse bydeliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may beharmful orfatal.
Use inwell ventilated area.This product canbeignited under certain circumstances.Therefore,donotusenear
potential ignition sources,hot surfaces,orspark-producing equipment.Do not tilt,shake,orturn can upside down
before orduring use as liquid contents may bedispensed.Liquid contents may cause frostbite oncontact with skin.
Contact physician ifsuch contact occurs.
Storage:
Store in cool place.Do not leave indirect sunlight,enclosed vehicles,orexpose to temperature above 120°F(49°C),
as overheating could cause can to burst.
Note:Observeall federal,state and local regulations when storingthis substance.
SECTION 8 -EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Eyeprotection:Chemicaltypegogglesor faceshieldoptional.
Skin protection: Impervious gloves should be worn.
Respiratoryprotection: Wear breathing mask.
Ventilation:Nospecial ventilation is usually necessary.However,ifoperating conditions create high air borne
concentrations ofthis material,special ventilation maybe needed.

SECTION 11 -TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The compound is untested for skin oreye irritation,and for animal sensitization.Effects in animals from single,high
exposure by inhalation include labored breathing,lung irritation,lethargy,incoordination,andlossof consciousness.
Cardiac sensitization occurred indogs exposed toa concentration of 150,000 ppm inairand given an intravenous
epinephrine challenge.Effects ofrepeated exposure include increased urinary fluorides,reduced kidney weight,and
reversible kidney changes.The effects ofa single,high oral dose include weight loss and lethargy.
Tests in animals demonstrate no carcinogenic activity ordevelopmental effects.Tests in animals for reproductive
effects have notbeen performed.This compound does not produce genetic damage in bacterial cell cultures buthas
not been tested in animals.
