Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: VAPOR IS HEAVIER THAN AIR
AND CAN CAUSE SUFFOCATION BY REDUCING OXYGEN AVAILABLE FOR
BREATHING. BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR MAY CAUSE
LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF B REATH, AND MAY LEAD TO
NARCOSIS, CARDIAC IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS OR DEATH.
SKIN/EYE: LIQUID CAN DEFAT TISSUE.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:FREON 114 IS NOT LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN
BY IARC, NTP OR OSHA.
Effects of Overexposure:BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR MAY
CAUSE LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF BREATH, AND MAY
LEAD TO NARCOSIS, CARDIAC IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS OR DEATH.
LIQUID IS NOT CORROSIVE O R AN IRRITANT, BUT CAN CAUSE DEFATTING OF
TISSUE. CONTACT WITH LIQUID CAN CAUSE FROSTBITE.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH PRE- EXISTING SKIN
DISORDERS MAY BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THIS AGENT.

First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR, CALL A PHYSICIAN. IF NOT
BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION.IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT,
GIVE OXYGEN. DO NOT GIVE EPINEPHRINE OR SIMILAR DRUGS. EYE: FLUSH
WITH WATER . SKIN: FLUSH WITH WATER. IF IRRITATIONPERSISTS, GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION. ORAL: GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT
INDUCE VOMITING AS THE HAZARD OF ASPIRATING INTO THE LUNGS IS TOO
GREAT.

Other Precautions:AVOID BREATHING VAPOR, LIQUID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN
OR CLOTHING. BECAUSE OF A POSSIBLE INCREASED RISK OF ELICITING
CARDIAC FIBRILLATION, DRUGS SUCH AS EPINEPHRINE SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED ONLY AS A LAST RESORT IN LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCIES.
