CONTROL OF EXPOSURE/INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION
Control parameters: 1000 ppm v/v or ml/m3 as weighted average over 8 hours
Respiratory protection: For rescue and maintenance work in tanks, use autonomous breathing apparatus. The
vapours are heavier than air and can cause suffocation, reducing the oxygen available for
breathing
Protection of the eyes: Safety goggles
Protection of the hands: Rubber gloves
Hygiene measures: Do not smoke
PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Colour: Colourless
Odour: Similar to ether
Boiling point: -26.5°C / -15.7°F at atm. press.
Flammability point: Non flammable
Relative density: 1.21 kg/l at 25°C
Solubility in water: 0,15% in weight (25°C at atm. press.)
STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Stability: No reactivity if used with the relative instructions
Materials to avoid: Alkaline metal, earthy alkaline metals, granulated metals salts, Al, Zn, Be, etc. in
powder.
Hazardous decomposition
products:
Halogen acids, traces of carbonyl halides
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Acute toxicity: ALC/inhalation /4 hours/lab. rats = 567 ml/l
Local effects: Concentrations substantially above 1000 ppm v/v can cause narcotic effects. Inhalation
of products in decomposition can lead to respiratory difficulty (pulmonary oedema)
Long-term toxicity: Has not shown any cancerogenic, teratogenic or mutagenic effects in experiments on
animals
ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Global warming potential HGWP

Considerations on disposal: Usable with reconditioning
Denomination: R410A (50% Difluoromethane (R32); 50% Pentafluoroethane (R125)).
INDICATION OF HAZARDS
Major hazards: Suffocation.
Specific hazards: Rapid evaporation can cause frostbite.
FIRST AID MEASURES
General information: Do not attempt to administer liquids or solids to persons who have lost consciousness.
Inhalation: Move victims to the open air. Use oxygen or artificial respiration if necessary.
Do not administer adrenaline or similar substances.
Contact with the eyes: Wash thoroughly with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical
assistance.
Contact with the skin: Wash immediately in plenty of clean water. Remove contaminated clothing immediately.
FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Means of extinction: Any.
Specific hazards: Pressure rise.
Specific methods: Cool containers with water spray.
MEASURES IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL LEAKAGE
Individual precautions: Evacuate personnel to safe muster points. Provide adequate ventilation. Use personal
protective equipment.
Environmental precautions: Evaporates.
Cleaning methods: Evaporates.
