keep injured person away from exposure, warm and relaxed. Use oxygen, if necessary. Give artificial
respiration if respiration has stopped or is about to stop. In case of cardiac arrest give external cardiac
massage. Seek immediate medical attention.
• Skin:
use water to remove ice from affected areas. Remove contaminated clothes.
CAUTION: clothes may adhere to skin in case of ice burns.
In case of contact with skin, wash with copious quantities of lukewarm water. In case of symptoms

symptomatic treatment and support therapy when indicated. Do not administer adrenaline or
sympatheticomimetic drugs after exposure, due to the risk of arrhythmia and possible cardiac arrest.
❖ Environmental data
Persistence and degradation
• HFC 143a:
slow decomposition in lower atmosphere (troposphere). Duration in atmosphere is 55 years.
• HFC 125:
slow decomposition in lower atmosphere (troposphere). Duration in atmosphere is 40 years.
• HFC 134a:
si decompone con relativa rapidità nell’atmosfera inferiore (troposfera). La durata nell’atmosfera è 15,6
anni.
• HFCs 143a, 125, 134a:
does not affect photochemical smog (not included in volatile organic components – VOC – as
established in the UNECE agreement). Does not cause ozone rarefaction.
Product exhausts released in the atmosphere do not cause long-term water contamination.
