*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:USE SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS IN
    OXYGEN-DEFICIENT ATMOSPHERES.  CAUTION!  RESPIRATORS WILL
    NOT FUNCTION.  USE MAY RESULT IN ASPHYXIATION.
Ventilation:NATURAL OR MECHANICAL WHERE GAS IS PRESENT.
Other Protective Equipment:NONE
Supplemental Safety and Health
VENTS SHOULD BE SITUATED TO AVOID HIGHER THAN NORMAL CONCENTRATION OF
    NITROGEN  IN WORK AREAS.
*  Product Identification  *
Product ID:NITROGEN, OR LIN (IN CRYOGENIC LIQ STATE)
*  Composition/Information on Ingredients  *
Ingred Name:NITROGEN
*  Hazards Identification  *
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NOOSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:NITROGEN IS ODORLESS AND NONTOXIC, BUT
    MAY PRODUCE SUFFOCATION BY DILUTING THE  CONCENTRATION OF OXYGEN IN
    AIR BELOW LEVELS NECESSARY TO SUPPORT LIFE.  PERSONS,INCLUDING
    RESCUE WORKERS, SHOULD NOT ENT ER AREAS WHERE THE OXYGEN
    BREATHING APPARATUS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NITROGEN IS A SIMPLE ASPHYXIANT AND HAS
    NO THRESHOLD LIMITVALUE (TLV).
Effects of Overexposure:EXPOSURE TO OXYGEN-DEFICIENT ATMOSPHERE MAY
    PRODUCE DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, VOMITING,LOSS OF CONSCIOUSNESS, & DEATH.
     EXTENSIVE TISSUE DAMAGE OR BURNS CAN RESULT FROEXPOSURE TO LIQUID
    NITROGEN OR COLD NITR OGEN VAPORS.NITROGEN UNDER HIGH PRESSURECAN
    PRODUCE NARCOSIS EVEN THOUGH OXYGEN SUFFICIENT FOR LIFE IS PRESENT.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NITROGEN UNDER HIGH PRESSURE CAN
    PRODUCE NARCOSIS EVEN THOUGH OXYGEN SUFFICIENT FOR LIFE IS
    PRESENT.RESPIRATORS WON'T FUNCTION IN OXY-DEFICIENT ATMOS.& USE MAY
    RESULT IN ASPHYXIATION. USE S.C.B.A.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:MOVE PERSON SUFFERING FROM LACK OF OXY TO NORMAL ATMOS. IF
    PERSON IS NOT BREATHIPERFORM CPR AND PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL OXY. IF
    CRYOGENIC LIQ OR COLD BOIL-OFF GAS CONTACTS A WORKER'S SKIN OR
    EYES,FROZEN  TISSUES SHOULD BE FLOODED OR SOAKED WITHTEPID WATER.
    DO NOT USE HOT WATER.  CRYOGENIC BURNS WHICH RESULT IN BLISTERING 
    OR DEEPER TISSUE FREEZING SHOULD BE SEEN PROMPTLY BY A PHYSICIAN.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:AVOID CONTACT OF SKIN WITH LIQUID NITROGEN OR
    ITS BOIL-OFF GAS.  FLUSH LIQ NITROGEN SPILL WITH WATERTO DISPERSE.
    VENT ENCLOSED AREAS TO PREVENT FORMA-TION OF OXY-DEFICIENT ATMOS.
    CAUSED BY THE EVAP OF LIQUID NITROGEN OR THE RELEASE OF GASEOUS
    NITROGEN
*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:PREVENT ENTRAPMENT OF LIQ IN CLOSED
    SYS. SEGREGATEFULL & EMPTY CYLINDERS.PREVENT CONTACT OF LIQ NIT OR
    COLD BOIL-OFF GAS WITH SKIN. SEE CGA PAMP P-1.
Other Precautions:LIQUID NITROGEN IS A CRYOGENIC LIQ.  MATERIALS OF
    CONSTRUCTION MUST BE SELECTED FOR COMPATIBILITY WITH EXTREMELY LOW
    TEMPS. AVOID USE OF CARBON STEEL & OTHER   MATERIALS WHICH BECOME
    BRITTLE AT LOW TE MPERATURES.
*  Physical/Chemical Properties  *
HCC:G3
Vapor Density:*SEE BELOW
Appearance and Odor:BOTH LIQUID AND GASEOUS NITROGEN ARE COLORLESS AND
    ODORLESS.
*  Stability and Reactivity Data  *
Stability Indicator/Materials to Avoid:YES
NONE
Stability Condition to Avoid:NONE
Hazardous Decomposition Products:NONE
*  Disposal Considerations  *
Waste Disposal Methods:ALLOW LIQ NITROGEN TO EVAP IN WELL VENTILATED
    OUT-DOOR LOCATION REMOTE FROM WORK AREAS. VENT NIT-GASIN SAME WAY.
    DO NOT DISPOSE OF RESIDUAL NITROGEN  IN COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDERS.
