SUSPECTED CANCER AGENT: The components of this gas mixture are listed by agencies tracking the carcinogenic potential of chemical
compounds, as follows:
DICHLORODIFLUOROMETHANE
TRICHLOROFLUOROMETHANE
1,1,2-TRICHLORO-1,1,2-TRIFLUOROETHANE
The remaining components of this gas mixture are not found on the following lists: FEDERAL OSHA Z LIST, NTP, CAL/OSHA, and IARC;
therefore, they are not considered to be, nor suspected to be, cancer-causing agents by these agencies. Nitrous Oxide is listed as ACGIH-A4 (Not
Classifiable as a Human Carcinogen).
IRRITANCY OF PRODUCT: Contact with rapidly expanding gases can be irritating to exposed skin and eyes.
SENSITIZATION TO THE PRODUCT: This gas mixture is not known to cause sensitization in humans.
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY INFORMATION: Listed below is information concerning the effects of this gas mixture and its components on the
human reproductive system.
A mutagen is a chemical which causes permanent changes to genetic material (DNA) such that the changes will propagate through generation
lines. An embryotoxin is a chemical which causes damage to a developing embryo (i.e. within the first eight weeks of pregnancy in humans), but
the damage does not propagate across generational lines. A teratogen is a chemical which causes damage to a developing fetus, but the damage
does not propagate across generational lines. A reproductive toxin is any substance which interferes in any way with the reproductive process.
BIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE INDICES (BEIs): Currently, Biological Exposure Indices (BEIs) have not been determined for the components of this
gas mixture.
ENVIRONMENTAL STABILITY:
Trichlorofluoromethane, and Dichlorodifluoromethane are chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) compounds.
implicated in the possible depletion of the stratospheric ozone, via a series of complex chemical reactions which occur in the upper atmosphere.
Atmospheric ozone is essential in protecting plants and animals from potentially harmful ultraviolet-light exposures. All work practice must be
directed at eliminating environmental contamination. The following environmental data are applicable to the components of this gas mixture.
DICHLORODIFLUOROMETHANE: Log Kow = 2.16; Water Solubility = 0.28 g/L 27 25°C.
OXYGEN: Water Solubility = 1 volume Oxygen/32 volumes water at 20°C. Log K
NITROGEN: Water Solubility = 2.4 volumes Nitrogen/100 volumes water at 0°C. 1.6 volumes Nitrogen/100 volumes water at 20°C.
EFFECT OF MATERIAL ON PLANTS or ANIMALS: No evidence is currently available on the effects of this gas mixture' on plant and animal life.
EFFECT OF CHEMICAL ON AQUATIC LIFE: No evidence is currently available on this gas mixture's effects on aquatic life. The following aquatic
toxicity data are available for the components of this gas mixture.

compressed gas cylinders in automobiles or in closed-body vehicles can present serious safety hazards. If transporting these cylinders in
vehicles, ensure these cylinders are not exposed to extremely high temperatures (as may occur in an enclosed vehicle on a hot day).
Additionally, the vehicle should be well-ventilated during transportation.
Cylinders do not have transportation information on the cylinder itself.
