EC Classification according to Directive 67/548/CEE, Annex I T; R23, N;R50Xi; R36/37/38

Toxic by inhalation.Very toxic to the aquatic life.Highly Corrosive in moist conditionsStrong Oxidizer

Health effects: Chlorine is irritating to nose, throat, skin and eyes.also tearing, coughing and chestpain. Higher levels burn the lungs and can cause a build up of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema)and death. Contact can severely burn the eyes and skin. Repeated exposures or a single highexposure may permanently damage the lungs. It can also damage the teeth and causes a skin rash.

Environmental effects: Chlorine is classified as dangerous for environmental as specified inDirective 67/548/EEC, Annex I. Degradation in air and water is mediated by exposure to UVcomponents of sunlight, with daytime halflives generally < 6 hours. Chlorine hydrolyzes very rapidlyin water. In fresh and waste water at pH > 6, complete hydrolysis occurs with the formation ofhypochlorous acid and chloride ion. Chlorine may react with soil components to form chlorides.Depending on their water solubility these chlorides are easily washed out from the soil. Free chlorinereacts rapidly with inorganics such as bromide and more slowly, with organic material present innatural water. These reactions yield chlorides, oxidized organics, chlororganics (includingtrihalomethanes), oxygen, nitrogen, chlorates, bromates and bromorganics. There is no potential forthe bioaccumulation or bioconcentration of chlorine.

Emergency Overview: Chlorine is a greenish yellow gas (or amber liquid) with an irritating odor.High concentration of chlorine gas may cause an oxygen–deficit atmosphere. Chlorine is an oxidizer,which can act to initiate and sustain the combustion of flammable materials. Chlorine is heavier thanair and pockets of this gas can accumulate in low-lying areas.

4. FIRST - AID MEASURES


Seek medical attention immediately in all cases of exposure!

In case of frostbite place the frostbitten part in warm water. Do not use the hot water1! If warmwater is not available wrap the affected parts gently in blankets. Encourage victim to gentlyexercise the affected part while being warmed. Seek immediate medical attention.

Inhalation: Toxic and irritating. Exposure to chlorine gas may cause severe irritation of mucousmembranes of the nose, throat and respiratory tract followed by severe coughing, burning, chestpain, vomiting, headache, anxiety and feeling of suffocation.Remove victim(s) to fresh air, as quickly as possible. If breathing was stopped, trained personnelshould administer supplemental oxygen and/or artificial respiration. Keep the affected person warmat rest. In mild cases, give milk to relieve throat irritation. Get medical attention as soon as possible.

Skin contact: Contact with liquid chlorine may cause serious burns, blistering and tissuedestruction. If liquid chlorine or high concentrations of chlorine gas gets on the skin, immediatelyflush the contaminated skin with water for at least 15 minutes. If liquid chlorine or highconcentration of chlorine gas penetrates through the clothing, remove clothing under a safety showerand continue to wash the skin for at least 15 minutes. If irritation is present after washing, getmedical attention. Do not apply greases unless ordered by a physician.

Eyes contact: May cause severe chemical burns to cornea. If liquid chlorine or high concentrations of chlorine gas get into the eyes, flush eyes immediatelywith a direct stream of water for at least 15 minutes, forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensurecomplete irrigation of all eye and lid tissue. Do not attempt chemical neutralization of any kind. Getmedical attention immediately. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with chlorine.NOTE: Do not use anything other than clean fresh water, or sterile saline on the eye.

Ingestion: Ingestion is not considered a potential route of exposure. Never give anything by mouthto an unconscious person. If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Give large quantities of water. Ifvomiting occurs spontaneously, keep air way clear and give more water. Get medical attentionimmediately.

Note to physician: No known antidote. Treatment for inhalation is symptomatic and supportive.Keep patient at rest until respiratory symptoms subside. Sedation for apprehension or restlessnessmay be considered as well as diuretics and antibiotics to alleviate edema and protect againstsecondary infection. Administer oxygen under exhalation pressure not exceding 4 cm water for 15minutes each hour until symptoms subside (except in presence of impeding or existing cardiovascularfailure). Steroid therapy, if given early, has been reported effective in preventing pulmonary edema.

5. FIRE - FIGHTING MEASURES


Suitable extinguishing media: Water sparay, fog or foam. Large fire: flood with fine water spray.Use water to keep fire - exposed containers cool and continue until well after fire is out.

Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use carbon dioxide or halogenated extinguidhing agents.

Exposure hazards: Althought non-flammable, chlorine is a strong oxidizer and will support theburning of most combustible materials. Flammable gases and vapors can form explosion mixtureswith chlorine. Moist chlorine can react violently whwn in contact with many materials and generateheat with possible flammable and explosive vapor. Chlorine gas is heavier than air and will collect inlow-lying areas. Wet chlorine is very corrosive.Protection of fire-fighters: Fire-fighters must use self-contained breathing apparatus operated inpositive pressure mode, eye protection and full protective clothing when fighting fire in whichchlorine is involved.

Hazardous combustion products: None, but combustible materials burn in chlorine as they do inoxygen.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precaution: Restrict access to the area until completion of the clean-up. Keep unnecessaryand unprotected personnel away from entering. Issue a warning: Poison Gas, Do not touch spilledLiquide.Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective equipment. Use general or localventilation to keep the noxes in the requirements limits. Minimum Personal Protective Equipmentshould be Level A: triple gloves (rubber gloves and nitrile gloves, over latex gloves), fully-encapsulating chemical resistant suit and boots, hard-hat, and self contained breathingapparatus.Warning! Direct contact of liquid chlorine with any personal protective equipment item can rapidlydestroy the equipment, leading to injury and death.

Environmental precautions: Isolate area until gas has dispersed. Uncontrollable leaks may requireevacuation of surrounding area. Keep material out off water courses and sewers. Use water spray toreduce vapor but do not apply water to point leak or spill area. Use general or local exhaustventilation. Keep combustibles (such as wood, paper, oil) away from spilled material.

Methods of cleaning up: If source of leak is a cylinder and the leak cannot be stopped in place,remove the leaking cylinder to a safe place in the open air and repair the leak or allow the cylinder toempty through a reducing agent such as caustic soda, soda ash, or hydrated lime solutions. Chlorinegas will disperse to the atmosphere leaving no residue. One volume of liquid chlorine released from acontainer at ambient temperature and pressure will dissipate into approximately 500 volumes ofgaseous chlorine. Therefore, if a chlorine container is leaking, if possible, try to position it so thatgas, rather than liquid leaks out. Chlorine vapours are heavier than air, and pockets ofchlorine arelikely to be trapped in low lying areas.Use water fog to dampen a chlorine cloud and reduce vapours. Do not spray water directly on theleak or chlorine container.


Liquid or solid residues must be disposed of in a permitted waste management facility. Disposeaccording to all applicable federal, state, or local environmental regulations.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling: Special attention is required when chlorine containers are handled. Use only in wellventilated areas. Do not drag, slide or roll cylinders. Use a suitable hand truck for cylindersmovement. Protect cylinders and containers from physical damage. Keep containers tightly closedwhen not in use. For handling chlorine is necessary specially trained, assigned personnel withapproved equipment and clothing. Chlorine emergency equipment should be available near the pointof use.

Storage: Store chlorine containers and cylinders in cool, dry, well ventilated areas of non-combustible construction away heavily trafficked areas and emergency exit. Do not allowtemperature where cylinders are stored to exceed 45oC. Cylinders should be stored upright andfirmly secured to prevent falling or being knocked over. Full and empty cylinders should besegregated. Full cylinders should not be stored for more than six months. Liquid levels should beless than 85 % of container or cylinder capacity. Use only compatible materials for cylinder, processmaintenance activity. Chrome and aluminum are not suitable materials for chlorine cylindersmanufacture. Periodic inspections of process equipment by knowledgeable persons shouldbe made to ensure that the equipment is used appropriately and the system is kept in suitableoperating condition.Store away from finely divided aluminium, brass, copper, manganese, tin, steel and iron, which canreact vigorously and violently with chlorine. Nitrogen compounds (ammonia, ammonium compoundsand urea) react with chlorine to form highly explosive nitrogen chloride. Phosphorus, boron,activated carbon and silicon can ignite on contact with gaseous chlorine at room temperature.Chlorine is highly corrosive to most metals in the presence of moisture – copper may burnspontaneously. Chlorine will react with most metals at elevated temperatures.

Special precautions for handling:

Regularly test and inspect piping and containment used for chlorine service.Loading and unloading operations must be attended, at all times. Valves and hoses must be verifiedto be in the correct positions, before starting the transfer operations. Valve protection caps mustremain in place unless container is secured with valve outlet piped to use point. Use a pressurereducing regulator when connecting cylinder to lower pressure (<250 psig) piping or system. Do notheat cylinder by any means to increase rate of product from the cylinder. Use a check valve or trap inthe discharge line to prevent hazardous back flow into cylinder. Regulators or manual control valvesfor chlorine are designed to accommodate only specifically matched cylinder outlets and will not fitthe outlets of incompatible gases. The use of adaptor defeats this built in safety measure.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION


Exposure limits: OSHA PEL (permissive exposure limit) 0.5 ppmACGIH TLV (threshold limit value) 0.5 ppm

Engineering control: A system of local and / or general exhaust is recommended to keep employeeexposure as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can controlthe emissions of the contaminant at its source preventing dispersion of it into the general work area.Use enclosed, isolated processing and handling whenever possible.

Personal protective equipment

Respiratory protection: Minimum respiratory protection required with a gas concentration above1 ppm but less than 25 ppm: a chemical cartridge respirator with a full facepiece and cartridge (s); agas mask with a chin-style or a front-or back- mounted canister; any supplied-air respirator with afull facepiece, helmet, or hood; any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece. In a gasconcentration greater than 25 ppm, a self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepieceoperated in pressure- demand or other positive pressure mode must be used.

Hand protection: Wear PVC, rubber or neoprene gloves.

Eye / Face protection: Employees should be required to use splash-proof safety goggles and faceshield where there is any possibility of liquid chlorine contacting the eyes. Contact lenses must not beworn when working around chlorine.

Skin protection: Employees should be required to use impermeable body equipment to prevent anypossibility of skin contact with liquid chlorine and to prevent the skin from becoming frozen fromcontact with vessels containing liquid chlorine. The suitable materials for body equipment are: Viton,butyl rubber, Teflon, chlorinated polyethylene.

Warning! Direct contact of liquid chlorine on any personal protective equipment item can rapidlydestroy the equipment, leading to injury and death.

Monitoring Methods: Monitoring the substance concentration in workplace may be required toconfirm compliance with an OEL and adequacy of exposure control.

Environmental Exposure Control: It is recommendable to develop a monitoring plan in order tomaintain the releases in the environment below the maximum allowed concentrations, complyingwith local, regional, regional and national legislation.

Other precautions: Maintain shower, eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY

Chemical stability: Chlorine, loaded in cylinders or containers (special destinated for chlorine) isstable under ordinary conditions of temperature and pressure. It is not corrosive at normaltemperature and moisture absence; may attack iron and stainless steel at high temperature andmoisture.

Conditions to avoid: Heat, moisture and incompatible substances.

Materials to avoid: Chlorine is a powerful oxidizing agent which reacts violently with a variety ofsubstances over a broad range of conditions including reducing agents and combustible materials. Itshould be kept away from materials such as acetylene, turpentine, other hydrocarbons, ammonia,hydrogen, ether, powdered metals, sulfur and aluminum. Chlorine reacts with hydrogen sulfide andwater forming hydrochloric acid. It combines with carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide to formphosgene and sulfuryl chloride respectively, which are toxic and corrosive substances.

Hazardous decomposition products: Chlorine does not decompose but reacts violently to formhydrochloric acid and other potentially toxic and/ or corrosive substances. Dry chlorine is stable in


steel containers at room temperature. Intense local heat on steel walls can cause the steel to reactand glow in presence of chlorine.

Inhalation: Major potential route of exposure. Exposure to chlorine gas may cause severe irritationof mucous membranes of the nose, throat and respiratory tract followed by severe coughing,burning, chest pain, vomiting, headache, anxiety and feeling of suffocation. Severe breathingdifficulties may occur which may be delayed in onset. Severe exposure may lead to chemicalpneumonitis and pulmonary edema and may be fatal. Repeated or prolonged exposure may result inreduced pulmonary capacity and dental erosion.

Ingestion: Ingestion of liquid chlorine may result in severe irritation or ulceration of the mouth,throat and digestive tract which may be displayed by nausea, pain, vomiting and in severe cases,collapse, shock and death.

Eye contact: Exposure to chlorine gas may cause severe eye damage. Direct contact of the eyeswith liquid chlorine will produce serious eye burns even blindness.

Skin contact: Contact with liquid chlorine may cause serious burns, blistering and tissue destruction.Chlorine vapors can cause irritation, burning and blisters. Contact with rapidly expanding gas posesa frostbite hazard.

Chronic effects: Chlorine is a primary irritant to the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, andthroat and to the linings of the entire respiratory tract. The major target organs for thesubchronic/chronic toxicity of chlorine in humans are the respiratory tract and the blood. The majortarget organs for the subchronic/chronic toxicity of chlorine in animals are the immune system, theblood, the cardiovascular system and the respiratory tract. EPA has derived an oral RfD (referencedose) of 0.1 mg/kg/day for chlorine, based on a no-observed-adverse-effect level of 14.4 mg/kg/dayin a chronic drinking water study in rats. In one case study, exposure to 0.015 mg/L of chlorine, 8h/day for 6 years resulted in dyspnea, marked emphysema of both lower lung lobes, and reducedrespiratory mobility.

CMR effectsCarcinogenicity:No conclusion on the carcinogenicity of chlorine can be made based on the limitedinformation available from human and animal studies. Not classifiable as a Human Carcinogen.Mutagenicity: Chlorine has not been reported to cause mutagenic effect in humans.Teratogenicity and Embryotoxicity: No data available.


12. ECOTOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

EcotoxicityFish Oncorhynchus mykiss LC50= 0.13 - 0.29 mg/ l/ 96 hr

Gambusia affinis LC50= 1.59 mg/l/30 min.Lepomis cyanellus LC50= 3 mg/l/24 hr

Daphnia Daphnia magna LC50=0.076 - 0.16 mg/ l/24hr

Mobility: Chlorine carried in the air absorbs some wave lengths of ultraviolet and visible sunlightand undergoes rapid chemical reactions in the atmosphere. The chlorine atoms produced will thenreact with organic compounds (mainly alkanes in polluted urban areas) to form hydrogen chlorideand organochlorine compounds. Though chlorine is only slightly soluble in water, even in lowconcentrations is detrimental to aquatic life.

Persistence and degradability: The atmospheric half-life and lifetime of chlorine due to thesereactions is estimated to be about 10 minutes and 14 minutes, respectively. Chlorine is non-persistentin water with a half -life of less than 2 days.

Bioaccumulative potential: There is no potential for bioaccumulation or bioconcentration ofchlorine.

Other adverse effects:May cause pH changes in aqueous ecological system. Toxic to aquatic organism. Low levelchlorination (0.05 to 0.15 mg/L) results in significant shifts in the species composition of marinephytoplankton communities

13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

Waste treatment: Any disposal practice must be in compliance with all local, regional and nationalregulations. Do not discharge into any place whwre its accumulation could be dangerous. Toxic andcorrosive gases formed during combustion should be scrubbed before discharge to atmosphere.Avoid discharge to atmosphere.

Packaging treatment: The chlorine containers/cylinders are dedicated packaging which are usedonly in conformity with the specific legal regulation. Until each refilling chlorine containers/cylindersmust be checked by authorized laboratories.

3. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Methane is an odorless, colorless gas, or a colorless, odorless liquid in its cryogenic form. Both the liquid and the gas pose a serious fire hazard when accidentally released. The liquid will rapidly boil to the gas at standard temperatures and pressures. As a gas, it will act as a simple asphyxiant and present a significant health hazard by displacing the oxygen in the atmosphere. The gas is lighter than air and may spread long distances. Distant ignition and flashback are possible. The liquefied gas can cause frostbite to any contaminated tissue. Flame or high temperature impinging on a localized area of the cylinder of Methane can cause the cylinder to rupture without activating the cylinder’s relief devices. Provide adequate fire protection during emergency response situations. Allow the released gas to dissipate in the atmosphere.

SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE BY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE: The most significant route of overexposure for this gas is by inhalation. The following paragraphs describe symptoms of exposure by route of exposure. INHALATION: High concentrations of this gas can cause an oxygen-deficient environment. Individuals breathing such an atmosphere may experience symptoms which include headaches, ringing in ears, dizziness, drowsiness, unconsciousness, nausea, vomiting, and depression of all the senses. Under some circumstances of overexposure, death may occur. The effects associated with various levels of oxygen are as follows: CONCENTRATION SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE 12-16% Oxygen: Breathing and pulse rate increased,

muscular coordination slightly disturbed. 10-14% Oxygen: Emotional upset, abnormal fatigue,

disturbed respiration. 6-10% Oxygen: Nausea and vomiting, collapse or loss of

consciousness. Below 6%: Convulsive movements, possible respiratory

collapse, and death. OTHER POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: Contact with cryogenic liquid or rapidly expanding gases (which are released under high pressure) may cause frostbite. Symptoms of frostbite include change in skin color to white or grayish-yellow. The pain after contact with the liquid can quickly subside.

HEALTH EFFECTS OR RISKS FROM EXPOSURE: An Explanation in Lay Terms. Overexposure to Methane may cause the following health effects: ACUTE: The most significant hazard associated with this gas is inhalation of oxygen-deficient atmospheres. Symptoms of oxygen deficiency include respiratory difficulty, headache, dizziness, and nausea. At high concentrations, unconsciousness or death may occur. Contact with cryogenic liquid or rapidly expanding gases may cause frostbite. CHRONIC: There are currently no known adverse health effects associated with chronic exposure to Methane.

TARGET ORGANS: Respiratory system.

PART II What should I do if a hazardous situation occurs?

4. FIRST-AID MEASURES RESCUERS SHOULD NOT ATTEMPT TO RETRIEVE VICTIMS OF EXPOSURE TO METHANE WITHOUT ADEQUATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. At a minimum, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus and Fire-Retardant Personal Protective equipment should be worn. Adequate fire protection must be provided during rescue situations.


4. FIRST-AID MEASURES (Continued) Remove victim(s) to fresh air as quickly as possible. Trained personnel should administer supplemental oxygen and/or cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, if necessary. Only trained personnel should administer supplemental oxygen. In case of frostbite, place the frostbitten part in warm water. DO NOT USE HOT WATER. If warm water is not available, or is impractical to use, wrap the affected parts gently in blankets. Alternatively, if the fingers or hands are frostbitten, place the affected area in the armpit, Encourage victim to gently exercise the affected part while being warmed. Seek immediate medical attention. Victim(s) must be taken for medical attention. Rescuers should be taken for medical attention, if necessary. Take copy of label and MSDS to physician or other health professional with victim(s).

FIRE EXTINGUISHING MATERIALS: Extinguish fires of this gas by shutting off the source of the gas. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers, structures, and equipment. UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: When involved in a fire, this gas will ignite and produce toxic gases including carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. An extreme explosion hazard exists in areas in which the gas has been released, but the material has not yet ignited. DANGER! Fires impinging (direct flame) on the outside surface of unprotected pressure storage vessels of Methane can be very dangerous and lead to container failure. The resulting fire and explosion can result in severe equipment damage and personnel injury or death over a large area around the vessel. For massive fires in large areas, use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles; if this is not possible, withdraw from area and allow fire to burn.

RESPONSE TO FIRE INVOLVING CRYOGEN: Cryogenic liquids can be particularly dangerous during fires because of their potential to rapidly freeze water. Careless use of water may cause heavy icing. Furthermore, relatively warm water greatly increases the evaporation rate of Methane. If large concentrations of Methane gas are present, the water vapor in the surrounding air will condense, creating a dense fog that may make it difficult to find fire exits or equipment. Liquid Methane, when exposed to the atmosphere, will produce a cloud of ice/fog in the air upon its release. A flammable mixture will exist within the vapor cloud and it is advisable that personnel keep well outside the area of visible moisture.

Explosion Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: Not sensitive. Explosion Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Static discharge may cause Methane to ignite explosively.

SPECIAL FIRE-FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Structural fire-fighters must wear Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus and full protective equipment. The best fire-fighting technique may be simply to let the burning gas escape from the pressurized cylinder, tank car, or pipeline. Stop the leak before extinguishing fire. If the fire is extinguished before the leak is sealed, the still-leaking gas could explosively re-ignite without warning and cause extensive damage, injury, or fatality. In this case, increase ventilation (in enclosed areas) to prevent flammable or explosive mixture formation. For large releases, consider evacuation. Refer to the North American Emergency Response Guidebook for additional information.


6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES SPILL AND LEAK RESPONSE: Uncontrolled releases should be responded to by trained personnel using pre-planned procedures. Proper protective equipment should be used. In case of a release, clear the affected area, protect people, and respond with trained personnel. Adequate fire protection must be provided. Minimum Personal Protective Equipment should be Level B: fire-retardant protective clothing, gloves resistant to tears, and Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus. Use only non-sparking tools and equipment. Locate and seal the source of the leaking gas. Protect personnel attempting the shut-off with water-spray. Allow the gas, which is lighter than air, to dissipate. Liquid Methane, when exposed to the atmosphere, will produce a cloud of ice/fog in the air upon its release. A flammable mixture will exist within the vapor cloud, and it is advisable that personnel keep well outside the area of visible moisture. If cryogenic liquid is released, keep area clear and allow the liquid to evaporate. The gas that is then formed should be allowed to dissipate. Monitor the surrounding area for combustible gas levels and oxygen. The atmosphere must have at least 19.5 percent oxygen before personnel can be allowed in the area without Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus. Combustible gas concentration must be below 10% of the LEL (LEL = 5.0%) prior to entry. Attempt to close the main source valve prior to entering the area. If this does not stop the release (or if it is not possible to reach the valve), allow the gas to release in-place or remove it to a safe area and allow the gas to be released there. RESPONSE TO CRYOGENIC RELEASE: Clear the affected area and allow the liquid to evaporate and the gas to dissipate. After the gas is formed, follow the instructions provided in the previous paragraphs. If the area must be entered by emergency personnel, SCBA, Kevlar gloves, and appropriate foot and leg protection must be worn. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE GAS. Protection of all personnel and the area must be maintained.

PART III How can I prevent hazardous situations from occurring?

7. HANDLING and STORAGE WORK PRACTICES AND HYGIENE PRACTICES: As with all chemicals, avoid getting Methane IN YOU. Do not eat or drink while handling chemicals. Be aware of any signs of dizziness or fatigue; exposures to fatal concentrations of Methane could occur without any significant warning symptoms. STORAGE AND HANDLING PRACTICES: Cylinders should be stored in dry, well-ventilated areas away from sources of heat. Compressed gases can present significant safety hazards. Store containers away from heavily trafficked areas and emergency exits. Post “No Smoking or Open Flames” signs in storage or use areas. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING GAS CYLINDERS: Protect cylinders against physical damage. Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from sources of heat, ignition and direct sunlight. Do not allow area where cylinders are stored to exceed 52°C (125°F). Isolate from oxidizers such as oxygen, chlorine, or fluorine. Use a check valve or trap in the discharge line to prevent hazardous backflow. Post “No Smoking or Open Flame” signs in storage and use areas. Cylinders should be stored upright and be firmly secured to prevent falling or being knocked over. Cylinders can be stored in the open, but in such cases, should be protected against extremes of weather and from the dampness of the ground to prevent rusting. Never tamper with pressure relief devices in valves and cylinders. Electrical equipment should be non-sparking or explosion proof. The following rules are applicable to work situations in which cylinders are being used: Before Use: Move cylinders with a suitable hand truck. Do not drag, slide, or roll cylinders. Do not drop cylinders or permit them to strike each other. Secure cylinders firmly. Leave the valve protection cap, if provided, in place until cylinder is ready for use. During Use: Use designated CGA fittings and other support equipment. Do not use adapters. Do not heat cylinder by any means to increase the discharge rate of the product from the cylinder. Use check valve or trap in discharge line to prevent hazardous backflow into the cylinder. Do not use oils or grease on gas-handling fittings or equipment. After Use: Close main cylinder valve. Replace valve protection cap, if provided. Mark empty cylinders “EMPTY”. NOTE: Use only DOT or ASME code containers. Earth-ground and bond all lines and equipment associated with Methane. Close valve after each use and when empty. Cylinders must not be recharged except by or with the consent of owner. For additional information refer to the Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet P-1, Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in Containers. Additionally, refer to CGA Bulletin SB-2 “Oxygen Deficient Atmospheres”. PROTECTIVE PRACTICES DURING MAINTENANCE OF CONTAMINATED EQUIPMENT: Follow practices indicated in Section 6 (Accidental Release Measures). Make certain that application equipment is locked and tagged-out safely. Purge gas handling equipment with inert gas (e.g., nitrogen) before attempting repairs.


8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS - PERSONAL PROTECTION VENTILATION AND ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use with adequate ventilation. Local exhaust ventilation is preferred, because it prevents Methane dispersion into the work place by eliminating it at its source. If appropriate, install automatic monitoring equipment to detect the presence of potentially explosive air-gas mixtures and the level of oxygen. Monitoring devices should be installed near the ceiling. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Maintain oxygen levels above 19.5% in the workplace. Use supplied air respiratory protection if oxygen levels are below 19.5% or during emergency response to a release of Methane. If respiratory protection is required, follow the requirements of the Federal OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR 1910.134) or equivalent State standards. EYE PROTECTION: Splash goggles or safety glasses, for protection from rapidly expanding gases and splashes of liquid Methane. HAND PROTECTION: Wear gloves resistant to tears when handling cylinders of Methane. Use low-temperature protective gloves when working with containers of liquid Methane. BODY PROTECTION: Use body protection appropriate for task. Transfer of large quantities under pressure may require protective equipment appropriate to protect employees from splashes of liquefied product, as well as fire retardant items.

Mutagenicity: No mutagenicity effects have been described for Methane. Embryotoxicity: No embryotoxic effects have been described for Methane.

Teratogenicity: No teratogenicity effects have been described for Methane. Reproductive Toxicity: No reproductive toxicity effects have been described for Methane. A mutagen is a chemical which causes permanent changes to genetic material (DNA) such that the changes will propagate through generational 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. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Acute or chronic respiratory conditions may be aggravated by overexposure to the components of Methane. RECOMMENDATIONS TO PHYSICIANS: Administer oxygen if necessary. Treat symptoms and eliminate exposure. BIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE INDICES (BEIs): Currently, Biological Exposure Indices (BEIs) are not applicable for Methane.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION ENVIRONMENTAL STABILITY: Methane occurs naturally in the atmosphere. This gas will be dissipated rapidly in well- ventilated areas. EFFECT OF MATERIAL ON PLANTS or ANIMALS: Any adverse effect on animals would be related to oxygen-deficient environments. No adverse effect is anticipated to occur to plant-life, except for frost produced in the presence of rapidly expanding gases. EFFECT OF CHEMICAL ON AQUATIC LIFE: No evidence is currently available on the effects of Methane on aquatic life.

13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS PREPARING WASTES FOR DISPOSAL: Product removed from the cylinder must be disposed of in accordance with appropriate Federal, State, and local regulations. Return cylinders with residual product to Airgas. Do not dispose locally.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS A large number of abbreviations and acronyms appear on a MSDS. Some of these which are commonly used include the following: CAS #: This is the Chemical Abstract Service Number which uniquely identifies each constituent. It is used for computer-related searching. EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR: ACGIH - American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, a professional association which establishes exposure limits. TLV -Threshold Limit Value - an airborne concentration of a substance which represents conditions under which it is generally believed that nearly all workers may be repeatedly exposed without adverse effect. The duration must be considered, including the 8-hour Time Weighted Average (TWA), the 15-minute Short Term Exposure Limit, and the instantaneous Ceiling Level (C). Skin absorption effects must also be considered. OSHA - U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration. PEL -Permissible Exposure Limit - This exposure value means exactly the same as a TLV, except that it is enforceable by OSHA. The OSHA Permissible Exposure Limits are based in the 1989 PELs and the June, 1993 Air Contaminants Rule (Federal Register: 58: 35338-35351 and 58: 40191). Both the current PELs and the vacated PELs are indicated. The phrase, “Vacated 1989 PEL,” is placed next to the PEL which was vacated by Court Order. IDLH - Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health - This level represents a concentration from which one can escape within 30-minutes without suffering escape-preventing or permanent injury. The DFG - MAK is the Republic of Germany’s Maximum Exposure Level, similar to the U.S. PEL. NIOSH is the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, which is the research arm of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). NIOSH issues exposure guidelines called Recommended Exposure Levels (RELs). When no exposure guidelines are established, an entry of NE is made for reference.

Industrial exposures are primarily vapor exposures and skin contact. Initial symptoms from ingestion or inhalation may be only mild intoxication, but may becomesevere after 12-18 hours. Toxic effects from repeated over exposure to methanol have anaccumulative affect the central nervous system, especially the optic nerve. These symptomsmay linger for several days after exposure. Methanol can seriously impair vision and maycause blindness.


POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:

EYE CONTACT: Methanol can seriously impair vision and may cause blindness. Immediatesigns and symptoms include the following: vapors are slightly uncomfortableand splashes very irritating; irritation with painful burning or stingingsensation; watering of eyes; inflammation of the eyelids; eyes are sensitiveto and painful in the light.

SKIN CONTACT: Direct skin contact with methanol may cause irritation, dermatitis, erythema,and scaling. Methanol is highly volatile and will produce a feeling of cold. Alcohols remove oils form the skin, which becomes dry and eventuallydevelops cracks or dermatitis. Methanol which can be absorbed by the skin,causes headache, fatigue, and reduction of visual acuity.

INHALATION: Sign and symptoms of acute poisoning include the following: slight irritationof the nose and eyes; head feels hot and face is flushed; excitability andtalkativeness; drunken behavior; staggering and lack of coordination;headache; mental confusion and visual disturbance; tiredness.

ROUTES OF ENTRY: A human poison by ingestion. Poison experimentally by skin contact. Moderately toxic experimentally by intravenous and intraperitoneal routes. Mildlly toxic by inhalation.

EFFECTS OFACUTE EXPOSURE:

The main toxic effect is exerted upon the nervous system, particularly theoptic nerves and possible the retina which can progress to permanentblindness. Once absorbed, methanol is only very slowly eliminated.Coma resulting from massive exposures may last as long as 2-4 days. Inthe body, the products formed by its oxidation are formaldehyde and formicacid, both of which are toxic. Because of the slow elimination, methanolshould be regarded as a cumulative poison. Though single exposures tovapors may cause no harmful effect, daily exposure may result in theaccumulation of sufficient methanol in the body to cause illness.

SYMPTOMS: Gastrointestinal irritation; slight irritation of nose and eyes; head feels hotand face is flushed; excitability and talkativeness; drunken behavior;staggering and lack of coordination; headache; mental confusion and visualdisturbance; tiredness.

EYE EFFECTS: Methanol can seriously impair vision. It may cause blurred vision,constricted visual fields, blindness, changes in color perception, doublevision, and general visual disturbances. Eye examinations have shownsluggish pupils, pallid optic discs, retinal edema, papilledema, hyperemia tothe optic discs with blurred edges and dilated veins. 1200 ppm to 8300 ppm: visual disturbances, dilated unreactive pupils and dim vision.

SKIN EFFECTS: Skin exposure may cause irritation and dermatitis. Poison experimentally byskin contact. Skin - rabbit: LD50: 15,800 mg/kg

ACUTE ORALEFFECTS:

Ingestion of methanol may cause acidosis, headache, visual disturbances,dizziness, nausea and vomiting, severe upper abdominal pain, dilatednonreactive pupils and death. Death from 2 to 8 ounces has been reported.

ACUTE INHALATIONEFFECTS:

May cause headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, weakness, vertigo, chillsshooting pains in the lower extremities, unsteady gait, numbness, prickling,shooting pain in the back of the hands and forearms, nervousness, gastricpain, insomnia, acidosis, and formic acid in the urine. Inhalation - human: TCL0 = 86,000 mg/m3 ( lowest published toxic concentration). Concentrations of 200-375 ppm may cause severe, recurrent headaches. IDLH - 25,000 ppm.

CHRONIC EFFECTS /

CARCINOGENICITY:

This agent is not considered a carcinogen by NTP, IARCor OSHA. Effects from repeated over-exposure to methanol are consideredto be harmful . Because of the slow elimination, methanol should beregarded as a cumulative poison. Though single exposures to fumes maycause no harmful effect, daily exposure may result in the accumulation ofsufficient methanol in the body to cause illness.

MUTAGENICITY: Reproductive effects: an experimental teratogen in rats exposed to 20,000ppm. Reported to cause birth defects.

ORGANS AFFECTED BYLONG-TERM EXPOSURE:

Repeated exposure to methanol vapor may be manifested by conjunctivitis,headache, giddiness, insomnia, gastric disturbances, and bilateral blindness.


Aquatic Toxicity Rating: Tlm 96: Over 1000 ppmToxicity threshold (cell multiplication inhibition test): Trout: Tlm (48 hr) 8,000 mg/l


Bacteria (Pseudomonas) LD0: 0.6 g/l Algae (Chlorella pyrenoidosa) toxic: 31,100 mg/l

Low concentrations are biodegradable; therefore, long-term ecological effects are notanticipated.


Recycling/reuse of all methanol residuals is recommended. Discarded or spill cleanupmaterial may be considered hazardous waste as defined under RCRA 40 CFR 261 (MethanolF003, U154).

Please be advised that state and local requirements for waste disposal may be morerestrictive or otherwise different from federal regulations. Consult state and local regulationsregarding the proper disposal of the material.

Special Remarks on Chronic Effects on Humans:Causes adverse reproductive effects in humans (fetotoxicity, abortion, ) by intraplacental route. High intake of sodium chloride,whether from occupational exposure or in the diet, may increase risk of TOXEMIA OF PREGNANCY in susceptible women(Bishop, 1978). Hypertonic sodium chloride solutions have been used to induce abortion in late pregnancy by direct infusioninto the uterus (Brown et al, 1972), but this route of administration is not relevant to occupational exposures. May causeadverse reproductive effects and birth defects in animals, particularly rats and mice (fetotoxicity, abortion, musculoskeletalabnormalities, and maternal effects (effects on ovaries, fallopian tubes) by oral, intraperitoneal, intraplacental, intrauterine,parenteral, and subcutaneous routes. While sodium chloride has been used as a negative control n some reproductivestudies, it has also been used as an example that almost any chemical can cause birth defects in experimental animalsif studied under the right conditions (Nishimura & Miyamoto, 1969). In experimental animals, sodium chloride has causeddelayed effects on newborns, has been fetotoxic, and has caused birth defects and abortions in rats and mice (RTECS, 1997).May affect genetic material (mutagenic)

Special Remarks on other Toxic Effects on Humans:Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: May cause skin irritation. Eyes: Causes eye irritation. Ingestion: Ingestion of largequantities can irritate the stomach (as in overuse of salt tablets) with nausea and vomiting.

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW

Chlorine is 2.5 times heavier than air and will collect in low-lying areas. It is not an explosive or

flammable gas, but reacts violently with oils, solvents, grease, ammonia, acetone, etc. Chlorine is

a strong oxidizer and may react to cause fire and/or explosion upon contact with turpentine, ether,

ammonia, hydrocarbons, certain metal hydrides, carbides, nitrides, oxides, sulfides, phosphides,

easily oxidized materials, organic materials or other flammables. It forms corrosive Hydrogen

Chloride on contact with water.

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS

PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: inhalation, ingestion, skin and eye contact

SYMTOPS OF EXPOSURE : May cause severe irritation of mucous membranes of

the nose, throat and respiratory tract followed by severe

coughing, burning, chest pain, vomiting, headache,

anxiety and feeling of suffocation. Skin contact with

liquid chlorine may cause serious burns, blistering and

tissue destruction. Contact with rapidly expanding gas

poses a frostbite hazard.

Inhalation : Severe irritation of mucous membranes of the nose, throat

and

respiratory tract.

Eye Contact : Eye irritation, permanent eye injury or may cause

blindness.

Skin Contact : Skin irritation. Contact with liquid chlorine may cause

serious burns, blistering and tissue destruction.

Ingestion : Ingestion of liquid chlorine may result in severe irritation or

ulceration of the mouth, throat and digestive tract which

may

be displayed by nausea, pain, vomiting and in severe

cases,

collapse, shock and death.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE

Severe exposure may lead to chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema and may be fatal.

REPORTED AS CARCINOGEN OR POTENTIAL CARCINOGEN: Not applicable


Inhalation : Remove to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably

mouth-to- mouth. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Keep the affected

person warm at rest. In mild cases, give milk to relieve throat irritation.

Eye contact : Immediately flush eyes with a directed stream of water for at least 15 minutes,

forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation of all eye and lid

tissues. Washing eyes within several seconds are essential to achieve

maximum effectiveness. Do not attempt chemical neutralization of any kind.

Skin Contact : Wash with plenty of soap and water while removing contaminated clothing and

Shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy

contaminated shoes. Do not apply greases unless ordered by a physician.

Ingestion : Not a likely route of exposure

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN

No known antidote. Treatment for inhalation is symptomatic and supportive. Keep patient at rest

until respiratory symptoms subside. Administer oxygen under exhalation pressure. It is

recommended that anyone exposed to chlorine gas by inhalation obtain a chest x-ray to check for

pulmonary edema.


Flash Point and Method : NA

GENERAL HAZARD : Negligible fire hazard. May ignite or explode on contact with

combustible materials.

EXTINGUSHING MEDIA: Water

Do not use dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide or halogenated extinguishing agents. For large

fires, flood with fine water spray. Use water to keep fire - exposed containers cool and continue

until fire is out.

SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

Firefighters must be used Self-contained breathing equipment, eye protection and full protective

clothing is required. Move container from fire area if it can be done without risk. Stay away from

the ends of tanks. Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Cool

containers with water spray until well after the fire is out. Apply water from a protected location

or from a safe

distance. Avoid inhalation of material or combustion byproducts. Stay upwind and keep out of

low areas. Evacuation radius to be maintained 800 meters (1/2 mile). Do not allow contaminated

extinguishing water to enter the soil, groundwater or surface waters.

FIREFIGHTING EQUIPENT

Wear approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear.


Wear Self-contained breathing equipment, eye protection and full protective clothing.

ON LAND: Neutralize small liquid spillage with soda ash. Cover pool with protein foam so that

the release of vapor to atmosphere is low and under control. Approach suspected leak areas with

caution. Large release may require considerable downwind evacuation. If possible, stop flow of

product. Increase ventilation to the release area and monitor concentrations. If the leak is in the

user's system, close the cylinder valve, safely vent the pressure, and purge with an inert gas

before attempting repairs. Isolate area until gas has dispersed. Uncontrollable leaks may require

evacuation of surrounding area. Keep material out off water courses and sewers. Use water

curtain to reduce vapor in downward direction, but do not apply water to point leak or spill area.

Use general or local exhaust ventilation. Keep combustibles (such as wood, paper, oil) away from

spilled material.

If leak during transportation, call Toll free CHLORINE EMERGENCY Telephone No. 1800-

11-1735.

IN WATER: NA


Wear Self-contained breathing equipment, eye protection and full protective clothing.

HANDLING

Special attention is required when chlorine containers are handled. Use only in well ventilated

areas. Do not drag, slide or roll cylinders. Use a suitable hand truck for cylinders movement.

Protect cylinders and containers from physical damage. Keep containers tightly closed when not

in use. For handling chlorine is necessary specially trained, assigned personnel with approved

equipment and clothing. Chlorine emergency equipment should be available near the point of use.

STORAGE

Store chlorine vessel, tonners and cylinders in cool, dry, well ventilated areas of non-combustible

construction as per PESO guidelines and emergency exit to be required. Do not allow temperature

where cylinders are stored to exceed 45oC. Cylinders should be stored upright and firmly secured

to prevent falling or being knocked over. Full and empty cylinders should be segregated. Full

cylinders should not be stored for more than six months. Liquid levels should be less than 80 %

of container or cylinder capacity. Use only compatible materials for cylinder, process

maintenance activity. Chrome and aluminum are not suitable materials for chlorine cylinders

manufacture. Periodic inspections of process equipment by competent persons should be made to

ensure that the equipment is used appropriately and the system is kept in suitable operating

condition. Store away from finely divided aluminum, brass, manganese, tin, steel and iron, which can react

vigorously and violently with chlorine. Nitrogen compounds (ammonia, ammonium compounds

and urea) react with chlorine to form highly explosive nitrogen chloride. Phosphorus, boron,

activated carbon and silicon can ignite on contact with gaseous chlorine at room temperature.

Chlorine is highly corrosive to most metals in the presence of moisture. Chlorine will react with

most metals at elevated temperatures.

Special precautions for handling:

Regularly test and inspect piping and containment used for chlorine service. Loading and unloading operations must be attended, at all times. Valves and hoses must be

verified to be in the correct positions, before starting the transfer operations. Valve protection

caps must remain in place unless container is secured with valve outlet piped to use point. Use a

pressure reducing regulator when connecting cylinder to lower pressure (<250 psig) piping or

system. Do not heat cylinder by any means to increase rate of product from the cylinder. Use a

check valve or trap in the discharge line to prevent hazardous back flow into cylinder. Regulators

or manual control valves for chlorine are designed to accommodate only specifically matched

cylinder outlets and will not fit the outlets of incompatible gases. The use of adaptor defeats this

built in safety measure.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION

ENGINEERING CONTROLS

A system of local and / or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposure as low

as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions

of the contaminant at its source preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Use

enclosed, isolated processing and handling whenever possible.

PERSONAL PROTECTION

Respirator:

Minimum respiratory protection required with a gas concentration above 1 ppm but less than 25

ppm: a chemical cartridge respirator with a full face piece and cartridge (s); a gas mask with a

chin-style or a front-or back- mounted canister; any supplied-air respirator with a full face piece,

helmet, or hood; any self-contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece. In a gas

concentration greater than 25 ppm, a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA set) with a full

face piece operated in pressure- demand or other positive pressure mode must be used.

Eye / Face protection: Employees should be required to use splash-proof safety goggles and

face shield where there is any possibility of liquid chlorine contacting the eyes. Contact lenses

must not be worn when working around chlorine.

Clothing: Employees should be required to use impermeable body equipment to prevent any

possibility of skin contact with liquid chlorine and to prevent the skin from becoming frozen from

contact with vessels containing liquid chlorine. The suitable materials for body equipment are:

Viton, butyl rubber, Teflon, chlorinated polyethylene.

Warning: Direct contact of liquid chlorine on any personal protective equipment item can rapidly

destroy the equipment, leading to injury and death.

Other: Maintain safety shower with eye wash fountain facilities & Online Air Mask in the work

area.

Inhalation: Major potential route of exposure. Exposure to chlorine gas may cause severe

irritation of mucous membranes of the nose, throat and respiratory tract followed by severe

coughing, burning, chest pain, vomiting, headache, anxiety and feeling of suffocation. Severe

breathing difficulties may occur which may be delayed in onset. Severe exposure may lead to

chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema and may be fatal. Repeated or prolonged exposure

may result in reduced pulmonary capacity and dental erosion.

Ingestion: Ingestion of liquid chlorine may result in severe irritation or ulceration of the mouth,

throat and digestive tract which may be displayed by nausea, pain, vomiting and in severe cases,

collapse, shock and death.

Eye contact: Exposure to chlorine gas may cause severe eye damage. Direct contact of the eyes

with liquid chlorine will produce serious eye burns even blindness.

Skin contact: Contact with liquid chlorine may cause serious burns, blistering and tissue

destruction. Chlorine vapors can cause irritation, burning and blisters. Contact with rapidly

expanding gas poses a frostbite hazard.

Chronic effects: Chlorine is a primary irritant to the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, and

throat and to the linings of the entire respiratory tract. The major target organs for the sub

chronic/chronic toxicity of chlorine in humans are the respiratory tract and the blood. The major

target organs for the sub chronic/chronic toxicity of chlorine in animals are the immune system,

the blood, the cardiovascular system and the respiratory tract. EPA has derived an oral RfD

(reference dose) of 0.1 mg/kg/day for chlorine, based on a no-observed-adverse-effect level of

14.4 mg/kg/day in a chronic drinking water study in rats. In one case study, exposure to 0.015

mg/L of chlorine, 8 h/day for 6 years resulted in dyspnea, marked emphysema of both lower

lung lobes, and reduced respiratory mobility.

Unspecified human mutagenic data is available for this substance.

OTHER: When inhaled, it enters the body cells where hydrolysis to hydrochloric acid and methyl alcohol occurs. This Results in degenerative changes to the lungs, brain, kidney and liver. Methyl chloride is readily absorbed into the body, but is very slowly given up, resulting in the possibility of latent toxicological effects. In fatal cases, autopsy has shown congestion of the lungs, liver and kidneys.

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW

Anhydrous hydrogen chloride, also referred to as hydrogen chloride gas, is a clear,

colorless gas with an extremely sharp odor. “Anhydrous” means dry or without water.

Anhydrous hydrogen chloride is extremely attracted to water and when exposed to air,

quickly reacts with the moisture in the air forming fumes, which are a mist of

hydrochloric acid. NIACET ® anhydrous hydrogen chloride is sold as liquefied gas.

Aqueous hydrochloric acid is a highly corrosive liquid that is formed upon mixing

anhydrous hydrogen chloride with water or moisture in the air. It emits a pungent odor

and strong fumes in moist air. The color ranges from clear to slightly yellow.

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW Hydrogen gas is colorless, odorless and flammable. It forms flammable and explosive mixtures with air over a wide range of concentrations.

The chief physical hazard associated with releases of the gas is asphyxiation by displacement of air and hence, oxygen. Hydrogen presents a serious fire hazard when accidentally released. Emergency personnel must practice extreme caution when approaching hydrogen releases hydrogen burns with an almost invisible blue flame which can cause very localized heating and explosion or rupture of pressure vessels.

It is non-toxic. The primary health hazard is asphyxiation by displacement of oxygen.

Special Remarks on Explosion Hazards: Anydrous Sodium Hypochlorite is very explosive. Primary amines and calcium hypochlorite or sodium hypochlorite react to

form normal chloroamines, which are explosive. Interaction of ethyleneimine with sodium (or other) hypochlorite gives the explosive N-chloro cmpd. Removal of formic acid from industrial waste streams with sodium hypochlorite soln becomes explosive at 55 deg C. Several explosions involving methanol and sodium hypochlorite were attributed to formation of methyl hypochlorite, especially in presence of acid or other esterification catalyst. Use of sodium hypochlorite soln to destroy

acidified benzyl cyanide residues caused a violent explosion, thought to have been due to formation of nitrogen trichloride.
