Inhalation causes irritation of the nose, throat, and lungs. High concentrations may cause death by respiratory failure or asphyxiation. May produce superficial skin burns or defatting type dermatitis and may irritate the eyes. (USCG, 1999)
Victims of freon inhalation require management for hypoxic, CNS anesthetic, & cardiac symptoms. Patients must be removed from the exposure environment, & high flow supplemental oxygen should be utilized. The respiratory system should be evaluated for injury, aspiration, or pulmonary edema & treated appropriately. CNS findings should be treated supportively. A calm environment with no physical exertion is imperative to avoid increasing endogenous adrenegic levels. Exogenous adrenergic drugs must not be used to avoid inducing sensitized myocardial dysrhythmias. Atropine is ineffective in treating bradyarrhythmias. For ventricular dysrhythmias, diphenylhydantoin & countershock may be effective. Cryogenic dermal injuries should be treated by water bath rewarming at 40-42 deg C until vasodilatory flush has returned. Elevation of the limb & standard frostbite management with late surgical debridement should be utilized. Ocular exposure requires irrigation & slit lamp evaluation for injury. Freons
Firefighters should wear self-contained, NIOSH-approved breathing apparatus for protection against suffocation and possible toxic decomposition products. Proper eye and skin protection should be provided. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool and to knock down vapors which may result from product decomposition.
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic gases including hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, and very small amounts of phosgene, fluorine and chlorine are produced. Behavior in Fire: While no flash point is reported, the material may burn if ignited by a high intensity heat source. (USCG, 1999)
In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Always wear recommended personal protective equipment. Immediately evacuate the area and provide maximum ventilation. Try to eliminate all ignition sources. Unprotected personnel should move upwind from spill. Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory and eye/skin protection should be permitted in the area. Dike area to contain the spill. Take precautions as necessary to prevent contamination of ground and surface waters. For large spills, pump material into appropriate containers. For small spills, recover or absorb spilled material using an absorbent designed for chemical spills such as Hazsorb pillows. Place used absorbents into closed DOT approved containers for disposal. After all visible traces have been removed, thoroughly wet vacuum the area. DO NOT flush into sewer. If the area of the spill is porous, removal of contaminated earth/surface may be required.
NO open flames. Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Separated from metals and alloys. See Chemical Dangers. Cool. Ventilation along the floor.Keep container closed when not in use. DO NOT store in open, unlabeled or mislabeled containers. Store in a cool, well- ventilated area of low fire risk. Protect container and its fittings from physical damage. Storage in subsurface locations should be avoided. Close valve tightly after use and when empty. If container temperature exceeds boiling point, cool the container before opening.

Decomposes on contact with hot surfaces or flames. This produces toxic and corrosive gases of hydrogen chloride (see ICSC 0163), phosgene (see ICSC 0007), hydrogen fluoride (see ICSC 0283) and carbonyl fluoride (see ICSC 0633). Reacts violently with powdered metals. This generates fire and explosion hazard. Attacks magnesium and its alloys.

Not combustible.The vapour is heavier than air and may accumulate in lowered spaces causing a deficiency of oxygen.1,1,2-TRICHLORO-1,2,2-TRIFLUOROETHANE yields violent reactions with Al, Ba, Li, Sm, Na/K alloy and Ti (NTP, 1992). May react exothermically with aluminum.

The substance is irritating to the eyes. The substance may cause effects on the cardiovascular system and central nervous system. This may result in cardiac disorders and central nervous system depression. Exposure could cause lowering of consciousness. See Notes.
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis.
On loss of containment this substance can cause suffocation by lowering the oxygen content of the air in confined areas.
AEROBIC: 1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0-5% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L and the Japanese MITI test(1).
BCFs of 11-33 and 14-86 were measured for 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane at concentrations of 0.198 and 0.0198 mg/L, respectively(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low to moderate.
The Koc of 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is estimated as 552(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.16(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane is expected to have low mobility in soil.

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
