First Aid Measures

Ingestion
Seek medical assistance.
Inhalation
Move victim to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
Skin
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Clothing frozen to the skin should be thawed before being removed. In case of contact with liquefied gas, thaw frosted parts with lukewarm water
Eyes
Flush with running water for at least 20 minutes.

Hazards Identification

Inhalation
Vapors may cause dizziness or asphyxiation without warning. Some may be irritating if inhaled at high concentrations.
Skin
Contact with gas or liquefied gas may cause burns, severe injury and/or frostbite.
Eyes
May cause irritation.
Hazards
Vapors from liquefied gas are initially heavier than air and spread along ground. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Containers may explode when heated.
