Ozone is highly toxic via inhalation or by contact of liquid to skin, eyes, or mucous membranes. It is capable of causing acute to chronic lung damage, burns, and death or permanent injury. Ozone can be toxic at a concentration of 100 ppm for 1 minute. Ozone is capable of causing death from pulmonary edema. It increases sensitivity of the lungs to bronchoconstrictors and allergens, increases susceptibility to and severity of lung bacterial and viral infections. (EPA, 1998)

Treatment is supportive, similar to that for smoke inhalation and chlorine

In case of fire: keep cylinder cool by spraying water. (EPA, 1998)

Severe explosion hazard when shocked, exposed to heat or flame, or by chemical reaction with organic substances, especially reducing agents. Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent. Incompatible with alkenes; aromatic compounds; benzene, rubber; bromine; dicyanogen; diethyl ether; dinitrogen tetroxide; hydrogen bromide; 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-1,6-heptadiene; nitrogen trichloride; stibine; tetrafluorohydrazine. Avoid contact with organic materials. (EPA, 1998)

In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media. Combat fire from a sheltered position.

Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Ventilation.

Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Ventilation.

Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.

NO open flames, NO sparks and NO smoking. NO contact with combustible substances. Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. 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.

Fireproof if in building. Separated from all substances. Cool.CYLINDERS OF DISSOLVED OZONE SHOULD BE STORED IN REFRIGERATED AREAS & AWAY FROM ALL REDUCING AGENTS, FLAMMABLE MATERIALS & SUBSTANCES SUCH AS IRON, COPPER OR CHROMIUM THAT MAY CATALYZE DECOMP.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.

Wear face shield or eye protection in combination with breathing protection.

Cold-insulating gloves.

Use ventilation, local exhaust or breathing protection.

Decomposes on warming. This produces oxygen. This generates fire and explosion hazard. Reacts violently with inorganic and organic compounds. This generates fire and explosion hazard. Attacks rubber.

Unstable gas ... @ normal temp decomp to biatomic oxygen. ... in liq or solid phase particularly unstable.

POWERFUL OXIDIZING AGENT ... EVOLVES MORE HEAT AND USUALLY STARTS AT A LOWER TEMPERATURE THAN OXIDATION WITH BIATOMIC OXYGEN.The gas is heavier than air.OZONE is a propellant; ignites upon contact with alcohols, amines, ammonia, beryllium alkyls, boranes, dicyanogen, hydrazines, hydrocarbons, hydrogen, nitroalkanes, powdered metals, silanes, or thiols [Bretherick 1979. p.174]. Aniline in a atmosphere of ozone produces a white galatinous explosive ozobenzene [Mellor 1:911. 1946-47]. A mixture of ether and ozone forms aldehyde and acetic acid and a heavy liquid, ethyl peroxide, an explosive [Mellor 1:911. 1946-47]. Severe explosions occur attempting to form tribromic octaoxide from bromine and ozone [Mellor 2, Supp. 1:748. 1956]. Mixtures of ozone and dinitrogen pentaoxide are flammable or explosive [Mellor 8, Supp. 2:276. 1967]. Ozone and ethylene react explosively [Berichte 38:3837]. Nitrogen dioxide and ozone react with the evolution of light, and often explode [J. Chem. Phys. 18:366 1920]. Contact of very cold liquefied gas with water may result in vigorous or violent boiling of the product and extremely rapid vaporization due to the large temperature differences involved. If the water is hot, there is the possibility that a liquid "superheat" explosion may occur. Pressures may build to dangerous levels if liquid gas contacts water in a closed container, [Handling Chemicals Safely 1980].

The substance is irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract. The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system. This may result in impaired vigilance and performance. Inhalation of the gas may cause lung oedema. See Notes. The effects may be delayed. The liquid may cause frostbite.

Repeated or prolonged inhalation of the gas may cause effects on the lungs.

A harmful concentration of this gas in the air will be reached very quickly on loss of containment.

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.

The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential.Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor, or by an authorized person, should be considered.
