Beschreibung
Trifluoromethane, CHF3, also known as fluoroform, propellant 23, and refrigerant 23, is a colorless gas that is nonflammable. There are no hazards listed for trifluoromethane. It may be an asphyxiant gas and displace oxygen in the air and in confined spaces. The fourdigit UN identification number is 2035 for the compressed gas and 3136 for the cryogenic liquid. The primary uses for trifluoromethane are as a refrigerant, as a direct coolant for infrared detector cells, and as a blowing agent for urethane foams.
Strictly speaking, fluorocarbon compounds contain only the elements carbon, fluorine, and sometimes hydrogen. However, in industrial applications such as refrigerants and aerosol propellants, the term fluorocarbon has been used to include compounds containing chlorine and bromine atoms, or both. These industrial products have somewhat similar chemical and physical properties. Their relatively inert character and wide range of vapor pressures and boiling points make them especially well suited as refrigerants in a variety of applications, blowing agents for plastic foams, and aerosols.
Chemische Eigenschaften
Trifluoromethane, also known as Halocarbon-23, is a colorless, nonflammable, and nontoxic gas with a slight ethereal odor at ambient conditions.
Verwenden
Refrigerant for low temperetures.
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Trifluoromethane is a colorless nonflammable gas. Trifluoromethane is shipped as a liquid under pressure. Trifluoromethane may be narcotic in high concentrations. Under prolonged exposure to fire or heat the containers may rupture violently and rocket. Trifluoromethane is used as a refrigerant.
Reaktivität anzeigen
TRIFLUOROMETHANE, R-23, is chemically inert in many situations, but can react violently with strong reducing agents such as the very active metals and the active metals. They suffer oxidation with strong oxidizing agents and under extremes of temperature.
Hazard
The four-digit UN identification number is 2035 for the compressed gas and 3136 for the cryogenic liquid. The primary uses for trifluoromethane are as a refrigerant, as a direct coolant for infrared detector cells, and as a blowing agent for urethane foams.
Health Hazard
Trifluoromethane is considered an asphyxiant.Vapors may cause dizziness or asphyxiation without warning. Vapors from liquefied gas are initially heavier than air and spread along ground. Contact with gas or liquefied gas may cause burns, severe injury and/or frostbite. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.
At very high concentrations, trifluoromethane may produce cardiac arrhythmias or arrest due to sensitization of the heart to adrenaline and noradrenalin. Exposure to fluorocarbon thermal decomposition products may produce flu-like symptoms including chills, fever, weakness, muscular aches, headache, chest discomfort, sore throat, and dry cough. Complete recovery usually occurs within 24 hours after exposure.
Brandgefahr
Some may burn but none ignite readily. Containers may explode when heated. Ruptured cylinders may rocket.
Materials Uses
The fluorocarbons are generally compatible
with most of the common metals except at high
temperatures. At elevated temperatures, the
following metals resist fluorocarbon corrosion
(and are named in decreasing order of their corrosive
resistance): Inconel, stainless steel,
nickel, steel, and bronze. Water or water vapor
in fluorocarbon systems will corrode magnesium
alloys or aluminum containing over 2 percent
magnesium. These metals are not recommended
for use with fluorocarbon systems in
which water may be present.
Sicherheitsprofil
Narcotic in high
concentration. A mild respiratory irritant.
Mutation data reported. See also
FLUORIDES. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of F-.
Lager
Use forced ventilation and local exhaust, or
both, to prevent an accumulation of gas that
could reduce the oxygen level to below 19.5%.
Ensure good floor ventilation. Use a check
valve or trap in the discharge line to prevent
back flow into the cylinder. Where applicable,
use a pressure-reducing regulator when connecting
a cylinder to a low-pressure piping system.
For flammable fluorocarbons, adherence to
pertinent electrical standards is necessary. Personnel
should not weld, solder, braze, or have
an open flame of any type in atmospheres containing
flammable or nonflammable fluorocarbons.
