2. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
Physical | Health: | Environmental: |
---|---|---|
Oxidizing Gas | Skin Irritation – Category 3 Eye Irritation – Category 2B Respiratory System Toxicity – Category 1 (Single & Repeated) |
Acute Aquatic Toxicity – Category I |
NOTE: Severe respiratory toxicity will develop before skin or eye irritation go beyond listed categories. Anyone with chronic pulmonary problems, especially asthma, should avoid exposure to ECO + BOI.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Route of Entry | Symptoms | First Aid | |
Skin Contact | YES | Irritation | Rinse with water |
Skin Absorption | NO | NA | NA |
Eye Contact | YES | Irritation | Rinse with water, remove contacts |
Ingestion | NO | NA | NA |
Inhalation | YES | Headache, cough, heavy chest, shortness of breath | Remove to fresh air, provide oxygen therapy as needed |
For severe cases, or if symptoms don’t improve, seek medical help.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
ECO + BOI itself is not flammable. As a strong oxidant it may accelerate, even initiate, combustion, or cause
explosions. Use whatever extinguishing agents are indicated for the burning materials.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Turn off the ECO + BOI generator, and ventilate the area. Evacuate until ECO + BOI levels subside to a safe
level (<0.1 ppm)
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
ECO + BOI must be contained within ECO + BOI -resistant tubing and pipes from the generation point to the
application point.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit: 8 hour TWA 0.1 ppm
ANSI/ASTM: 8 hour TWA 0.1 ppm, STEL 0.3 ppm
ACGIH: 8 hour TWA 0.1 ppm; STEL 0.3 ppm
NIOSH: ELCV 0.1 ppm light; 0.08 ppm moderate; 0.05 ppm, heavy Light, moderate, heavy work TWA <= 2 hours: 0.2 ppm Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) 5 ppm
Respiratory Protection: Use full face self-contained breathing apparatus for entering areas with a high concentration
Engineering control: Use ECO destruct unit for off gassing of ECO.

10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
ECO + BOI is highly unstable and highly reactive. Avoid contact with oxidizable substances. ECO + BOI will
readily react and spontaneously decompose under normal ambient temperatures.
11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Likely routes of exposure: inhalation, eyes, skin exposure.
Effects of Acute Exposure: Discomfort, including headache, coughing, dry throat, shortness of breath, pulmonary edema; higher levels of exposure intensify symptoms. Possible irritation of skin and/or eyes.
Effects of Chronic Exposure: Similar to acute exposure effects, with possible development of chronic breathing disorders, including asthma.
LC50: mice, 12.6 ppm for 3 hours; hamsters, 35.5 ppm for 3 hours
Irritancy of Ozone | YES |
Sensitization to Ozone | NO |
Carcinogenicity (NTP, IARC, OSHA) | NO |
Reproductive Toxicity, Teratogenicity, Mutagen city |
Not Proven |
Toxicologically Synergistic Products | Increased susceptibility to allergens, pathogens, irritants |
12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The immediate surrounding area may be adversely affected by an ECO + BOI release, particularly plant life.
Discharge of ECO + BOI in water solution may be harmful to aquatic life. Due to natural decomposition,
bioaccumulation will not occur, and the area affected will be limited.
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Off-gassing of ECO should be through an ECO destruct unit which breaks ECO down to oxygen before release
into the atmosphere.
14. TRANSPORT INFORMATION
NOT APPLICABLE, as ECO + BOI is unstable and either reacts or decomposes, and must be generated at the
location and time of use.
15. REGULATORY INFORMATION
SARA Title III Section 302 EHS TPQ: 100 lbs.
SARA Title III Section 304, EHS RQ: 100 lbs.
SARA Title III Section 313: > 10,000 lbs. used/year.

16. OTHER INFORMATION
Half-life of ECO + BOI in water at 20°C = 20 min; in dry still air at 24°C = 25 hr; decreases significantly with increase in humidity, presence of contaminants, air movement, and/or increase in temperature.
