Propane

move victim away from source of exposure and into fresh air in a position comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult, oxygen or artificial respiration should be administered by qualified personnel. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.

Symptoms: shortness of breath, drowsiness, headaches, confusion, decreased coordination, visual disturbances and vomiting. Continued exposure can lead to hypoxia (inadequate oxygen), rapid breathing, cyanosis (bluish discoloration of the skin), numbness of the extremities, unconsciousness and death.

Treat burned or frostbitten skin by flushing or immersing the affected area(s) in lukewarm water. Do not rub affected area. Do not remove clothing that adheres due to freezing. After sensation has returned to the frostbitten skin, keep skin warm, dry, and clean. If blistering occurs, apply a sterile dressing. Seek immediate medical attention.

Symptoms: cryogenic burns or injury

remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, hold eyelids apart and gently flush the affected eye(s) with lukewarm water. Seek immediate medical attention.

This material is a gas under normal atmospheric conditions and ingestion is unlikely.

Dry chemical or carbon dioxide is recommended.

Extremely flammable. Contents under pressure. This material can be ignited by heat, sparks, flames, or other sources of ignition. Vapors may travel considerable distances to a source of ignition where they can ignite, flash back, or explode. May create vapor/air explosion hazard indoors, in confined spaces, outdoors, or in sewers. If container is not properly cooled, it can rupture in the heat of a fire.

Stop spill/release if it can be done safely. If this cannot be done, allow fire to burn. Move undamaged containers from immediate hazard area if it can be done safely. Stay away from ends of container. Water spray may be useful in minimizing or dispersing vapors and to protect personnel. Cool equipment exposed to fire with water, if it can be done safely.

Stop and contain spill/release if it can be done safely. Water spray may be useful in minimizing or dispersing vapors. Ventilate area and allow to evaporate. Stay upwind and away from spill/release. Avoid direct contact with material.

notify persons down wind of the spill/release, isolate immediate hazard area and keep unauthorized personnel out

Stop and contain spill/release if it can be done safely. Water spray may be useful in minimizing or dispersing vapors.

Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Use good personal hygiene practices and wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Extremely Flammable. Contents under pressure. Gas can accumulate in confined spaces and limit oxygen available for breathing. Cold burns may occur during filling operations.

Keep container(s) tightly closed and properly labeled. Use and store this material in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas away from heat, direct sunlight, hot metal surfaces, and all sources of ignition. Store only in approved containers. Post area 'No Smoking or Open Flame.' Protect container(s) against physical damage. Outdoor or detached storage is preferred.

Use good personal hygiene practices.

Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Grounding and bonding containers and equipment.

If current ventilation practices are not adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below the established exposure limits, additional engineering controls may be required.

Wear thermal insulating gloves when working with materials that present thermal hazards (hot or cold).

The use of eye protection (such as splash goggles) that meets or exceeds ANSI Z.87.1 is recommended when there is potential liquid contact to the eye. Depending on conditions of use, a face shield may be necessary.

A NIOSH approved, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or equivalent operated in a pressure demand or other positive pressure mode should be used in situations of oxygen deficiency (oxygen content less than 19.5 percent), unknown exposure concentrations, or situations that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH). A respiratory protection program that meets or is equivalent to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 should be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.

Stable under normal ambient and anticipated conditions of use.

Not chemically reactive.

Hazardous reactions not anticipated.

Avoid all possible sources of ignition. Heat will increase pressure in the storage tank.

Avoid contact with acids, aluminum chloride, chlorine, chlorine dioxide, halogens and oxidizing agents.

Not anticipated under normal conditions of use.

This material is a gas and would not typically be managed as a waste.
