100 CYCLoHF.xAN0NE
Vaporization: 196, 109,4.56; Heat of Combustion: -16,000, -8910, -373; HeatofDecomposition): Not
pertinent;
Health Hazards Information - Recommended Personal Protective Equipment: Goggles or face shield;
Symptoms Following Exposure: Narcosis - depression of the central nervous system tending to produce
sleep or unconsciousness; General Treatment for Exposure: Eye contact is more hazardous than
inhalation, skin irritation, or ingestion. Flush eyes with water and remove victim to fresh air; Toxicity
by Inhalation (Threshold Limit Value): 50 ppm; Short-Tern Exposure Limits: Data not available;
Toxicity by Ingestion: Grade 2; LD,, 0.5 to 5 glkg; Late Toxicity: Data not available; Vapor (Gas)
Irritant Characteristics: Vapors cause a slight smarting of the eyes or respiratory system if present in
high concentrations. The effect is temporary; Liquid or Solid Irritant Characteristics: Causes smarting
of the skin an first-degree burns on short exposure and may cause secondary bums on long exposure;
Odor Threshold Data not available.
Fire Hazards - Flash Point (deg. F): 160 OC; 154 CC; Flammable Limits in Air (96): Data not
available; Fire Extinguishing Agents: Water, foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical; Fire Extinguishing
Agents Not To Be Used Not pertinent; Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Not pertinent;
Behavior in Fire: Not pertinent; Ignition Temperature (deg. F): 572; Electrical Hazard Data not
available; Burning Rate: 3.9 rndmin.
Chemical Reactivity - Reactivity with Water: No reaction; Reactivity with Common Materials: No
reaction; Stability During Transport: Stable; Neutralizing Agents for Acids and Caustics: Not pertinent;
Polymerization: Not pertinent; Inhibitor of Polymerization: Not pertinent.

vaporization: 160,91,3.8; Heat of Combustion: -15,430, -8570, -358.8; Heat ofDecomposition: Not
pertinent.
Health Hazards Information - Recommended Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical goggles;
Symptoms Following Exposure: Inhalation of vapors from hot material can cause narcosis. The liquid
may cause dermatitis; General Treatment for Exposure: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water;
call a physician; Toxicity by Inhalation (ThresholdLimit Value): 50 ppm; Short-Tern Exposure Limits:
Data not available; Toxicity by Ingestion: Grade 2; LD,, 50 to 5 glkg; Late Toxicity: Data not available;
Vapor (Gas) Irritant Characteristics: Vapor is moderately irritating such that personnel will not usually
tolerate moderate or high vapor concentrations; Liquid or Solid Irritant Characteristics: Causes
smarting of the ski and first-degree burns on short exposure and may cause secondary burns on long
exposure; Odor Threshold: 0.12 ppm.
