LD50 LC50 Mixture:TLV: 350 PPM
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION-MINIMAL EFFECTS OBSERVED
BELOW 1,000 PPM; DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS & THROAT IRRITATION AT
LEVELS ABOVE 1000 PPM. UNCONSCIOUSNESS & DEATH POSSIBLE AT LEVELS
ABOVE 10000 PPM. BLOOD PRESSURE DEPR ESSION, CARDIAC SENSITIZATION
& VENTRICULAR ARRHYTHMIA CAN RESULT FROM EXPOSURE TO NEAR
ANESTHETIC LEVELS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:1,1,1 TRICHLOROETHANE IS NOT LISTED ON
THE OSHA, IARC OR NTP CARCINOGEN LISTS.
Effects of Overexposure:EYE IRRITATION. PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT
CAN CAUSE IRRITATION, DEFATTING, DERMATITIS. SINGLE DOSE TOXICITY
IS LOW TO MODERATE. ASPIRATION HAZARD.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:ACUTE AND CHRONIC LIVER DISEASE AND
RHYTHM DISORDERS OF THE HEART.

First Aid:INHALATION-REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED,
GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. CALL A PHYSICIAN. SKIN-REMOVE
CONTAMINATED CLOTHING & SHOES. WASH EXPOSED AREA WITH SOAP & WATER.
EYES-FLUSH EYES IMMEDIATELY WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15MIN. IF
IRRITATION PERSISTS, CALL A PHYSICIAN. INGESTION-DO NOT INDUCE
VOMITING. CONTACT PHYSICIAN OR EMERGENCY MEDICAL FACILITY
IMMEDIATELY.

Extinguishing Media:WATER, FOAM, DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:FIRE FIGHTERS SHOULD WEAR SELF-CONTAINED,
POSITIVE PRESSURE BREATHING APPARATUS DUE TO THERMAL DECOMPOSITION
PRODUCTS, AND AVOID SKIN CONTACT.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CONCENTRATED VAPORS CAN BE IGNITED BY
HIGH INTENSITY IGNITION SOURCE. INTENSIVE HEAT CREATED BY FIRE WILL
CAUSE AEROSOLS TO BURST.

Spill Release Procedures:EVACUATE THE AREA, VENTILATE AND AVOID
BREATHING VAPORS. DIKE AREA TO CONTAIN SPILL. IF SPILL OCCURS
INDOORS, TURN OFF AIR CONDITIONING OR HEATING SYSTEM. CLEAN UP AREA

EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE USED FOR STORAGE AND/OR TRANSFER. VAPORS ARE
HEAVIER THAN AIR AND WILL COLLECT IN LOW AREAS.

Respiratory Protection:WHERE VAPOR CONCENTRATION EXCEEDS OR IS LIKELY
TO EXCEED 350 PPM, AN APPROVED ORGANIC VAPOR TYPE RESPIRATOR IS
ACCEPTABLE. USE NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS OR AIR LINE RESPIR ATOR, WITH FULL FACE PIECE,WHEN>1000
PPM
Ventilation:OPEN DOORS &/OR WINDOWS. USE VENTILATION TO MAINTAIN
EXPOSURE LEVELS BELOW 350 PPM.
Protective Gloves:VITON, PVA, OR EQUIVALENT GLOVES.
